Abstract :
An exact solution to the mutual interaction of two solitons propagating in a nonlinear single-mode fibre is given. From this, it is shown that the soliton separation can be effectively maintained by allowing the solitons to have unequal amplitudes. This provides a simple way to maintain the high bandwidth of a nonlinear fibre.
