Abstract :
The excitation of radial and torsional-radial acoustic modes by solitons is analyzed depending on light polarization. The theoretical study of the timing jitter and bit error rate caused by the acoustic effect in soliton communication lines for co- and counter-polarized adjacent bits is presented. The influence of guiding filter on the acoustically induced timing jitter is calculated
