Abstract
The structure and stability of a soliton with Gaussian tails is studied in the model that presents the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with additional parabolic potential. It is suggested to use in-line phase modulators to create and to transmit such pulses in cascaded fiber links. It is proved that the soliton with Gaussian tails is stable and can be potentially used as an information carrier in the optical transmission.Keywords
