Abstract

In this work, the interaction of higher order solitons is investigated by solving the nonlinear Schrödinger equation which models the propagation of solitons in the optical fiber for the propagation of two soliton pulse. The loss of the optical fiber is also taken into account in the Schrödinger equation. The Schrödinger equation is solved by using split-step Fourier transform technique. It is specifically investigated the interaction of the second order solitons which compensates the broadening effect of the optical fiber loss and compresses to the one fourth of the initial pulsewidth at the half period. It is found that the loss of the optical fiber increases the interaction of solitons..
