| Abstract | The author discusses how the soliton owes its very existence to fiber nonlinearity. As a pulse self-trapped in time, it is able to resist a great many effects, such as chromatic dispersion and polarization dispersion, that are highly destructive of ordinary ("linear") pulses. It is extremely robust in this regard. The transmission line picks the soliton out of whatever reasonable pulse is launched into it, and discards the residue as dispersive wave radiation. In a line with amplifiers, the soliton tends to propagate stably over an indefinitely long distance. For the soliton in a broad-band transmission line, however, one optical frequency is as good as another. This indifference to optical frequency makes it relatively easy for spontaneous emission, by way of the nonlinear term, to change the soliton's frequency, and hence to change its velocity. The resultant random spread in pulse arrival times, known as the Gordon-Haus effect, tends to limit the maximum allowable bit-rate for error-free transmission. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
