Dispersion managed dissipative solitons with higher order nonlinearity and frequency-selective feedback

We present the generation and interaction dynamics of dispersion managed soliton in a dissipative cubic-quintic nonlinear optical fiber coupled with frequency-selective feedback. Analytically, perturbative variational method is used to obtain evolution equations for different soliton parameters that are subsequently solved to study the propagation characteristics of the dispersion managed dissipative solitons (DMDS). The DMDSs show breather like characteristics and are found to be robust against certain level of initial noise. Both the standard Gaussian and more generic super-Gaussian pulse profile are shown to yield stable DMDS. Interaction of two DMDSs of same phase may lead to a bound state. By varying the temporal separation and phase difference between the DMDSs the bound state can be switched between low to high speed regime.
