Abstract :
Modulation instability (MI) in non-Kerr-like optical fiber near the zero dispersion point is analyzed. Taking into account the fourth order dispersion, it is shown that new regions of MI are found. The action of the self-steepening isn´t the same for each region of MI and the critical modulation frequency.
