Modeling and design of soliton propagation in WDM optical systems

In the 5G mobile networks, the optical signal transmission will be widely used. Two main applications are important: short links for the access networks and long links in the backbone of the system. In this paper we investigate both applications. For that purpose we developed a method using simulations. Based on our simulation results we present proper methods to avoid distortion, which is caused by interaction between the solitons. Considering the dispersion and nonlinearity of the widely used fibers two different methods can be applied to avoid distortion.
