Dispersion-managed soliton in a strong dispersion map limit

A dispersion-managed optical system with step-wise periodical variation of dispersion is studied in a strong dispersion map limit in the framework of path-averaged Gabitov-Turitsyn equation. The soliton solution is obtained by iterating the path-averaged equation analytically and numerically. An efficient numerical algorithm for obtaining of DM soliton shape is developed. The envelope of soliton oscillating tails is found to decay exponentially in time while the oscillations are described by a quadratic law.
