Abstract
This paper studies the propagation of solitons through optical fibers with dispersion management. The adiabatic variation of the soliton parameters, due to the presence of perturbation terms, is obtained. The dynamics is studied for the case of polarization-preserving fibers, while the types of pulses that are considered here are Gaussian, super-Gaussian and supersech. The perturbation terms that are taken into consideration are both local and nonlocal.
