Can There Be WDM Solitons in Fibers?

  The existence of solitons on single wavelength beam in fiber is a marvel of nature.For a pulse propagating on a single wavelength beam in a fiber,it is amazing that the linear dispersive effect of pulse broadening can be cancelled exactly by the non-linear self-phase modulating effect of pulse compression such that the pulse will not degrade as it propagates along the fiber.This pulse is called a soliton.This delicately balanced condition can easily be perturbed or destroyed,when there are co-propagating pulses on different wavelength beams,called wavelength division multiplexed(WDM)beams,in this fiber.This degradation is due to the presence of the non-linear cross-phase modulation effect which can act on co-propagating pulses on WDM beams.Can nature provide another condition under which pulses on WDM beams can be formed into WDM solitons? This paper will address this problem.
