Abstract

A combination of amplitude modulation and filtering in a fiber ring, whose loss is compensated by gain, can maintain indefinitely ones represented by solitons and zeros represented by their absence. The spontaneous emission noise of the amplifiers is contained if the system parameters are chosen properly.
