Bright and dark optical solitons for the generalized variable coefficients nonlinear Schrödinger equation

Abstract

In this paper, the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation with variable coefficients (gvcNLSE) arising in optical fiber is solved by using two different techniques the trail equation method and direct integration method. Many different new types of wave solutions like Jacobi, periodic and soliton wave solutions are obtained. From this study we have concluded that the direct integration method is more easy and straightforward than the trail equation method. As an application in optic fibers the propagation of the frequency modulated optical soliton is discussed and we have deduced that it's propagation shape is affected with the different values of both the amplification increment and the group velocity (GVD).
