Soliton control in fiber lasers with a semiconductor optical amplifier by off-set filtering

The path-averaged model is applied to described soliton characteristics in the anomalous cavity dispersion fiber laser with semiconductor optical amplifier. It is shown that, by off-setting the optical filter relative to the gain spectral max-imum, it is possible to control velocity and frequency of both the fundamental optical soliton and chirped dissipative soli -tons.
