Abstracts
Solitary optical waves with characteristic red frequency shift have been numerically identified in fibers with positive group velocity dispersion in the presence of amplification by semiconductor amplifiers. Influence of the Henry factor, the net gain, gain saturation characteristics, and frequency modulation on the frequency shift of the observed solitary optical waves has been examined. Normalized pulse energy as a function of the gain saturation characteristics has been studied.
