Abstract

Wavelength‐division multiplexed optical systems require an accurate knowledge of the cross‐phase modulation due to the Kerr effect, which generates a nonlinear phase modulation of each channel depending on the overall power in all of the other channels. In this letter, the spectral characteristics of cross‐phase modulation are investigated in multispan WDM optical systems, whose performance can be severely constrained by interference induced by this nonlinear effect. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Based on the Lagrangian formulation, we present a new ¨ariational approach to study the influence of cross-phase modulation on solitonlike pulse switching in twin-core fiber couplers and birefringent fibers. For self-routing pulse switching we found an excellent agreement between our finite-dimensio
