Abstract
We examine the effects of stimulated Raman scattering on ultra-short pulses propagating in optical fiber systems. In particular we demonstrate that the existing theories for the Raman-induced soliton self-frequency shift give consistent results only in a restricted domain of pulse width which excludes important practical applications to high-speed soliton transmission systems. We present a general theory for the soliton self-frequency shift (SSFS), which applies to any pulse whose spectral bandwidth lies within the third-order telecommunication window. We show that the disastrous impact of the SSFS in high-speed long-distance transmission lines can be suppressed by use of filters whose central frequency is appropriately up shifted with respect to the transmission frequency.
