The generalized Sasa–Satsuma equation and its optical solitons

Abstract

The principal goal of the presented paper is to investigate the dynamics of optical solitons for the generalized Sasa–Satsuma (GSS) equation describing the propagation of the femtosecond pulses in the systems of optical fiber transmission. More precisely, the governing model, which is a generalized version of the classical Sasa–Satsuma equation, is firstly reduced in a one-dimensional real regime through a specific transformation; then, its bright and dark optical solitons are established using the modified Kudryashov (MK) method. The changes in the amplitude of the bright and dark solitons are analyzed as a case study for various classes of free parameters. Considerable changes are observed in the optical solitons amplitude from the results presented in the current study.
