Abstract
Some features of the propagation of one-soliton successions in the third order dispersion region are presented for the case where the phase difference between adjacent pulses is π rads. We show that this considerably improves the stability of the pulses in the zero-dispersion region. Walk-off can be diminished by increasing the number of pulses in the succession. These features may help optimize the bandwidth of non-linear fibre communication links.
