Novel insights into high-order dispersion and soliton dynamics in optical fibers via the perturbed Schrödinger–Hirota equation

This study offers a comprehensive analysis of the Perturbed Schrödinger -Hirota Equation (PSHE), crucial for understanding soliton dynamics in modern optical communication systems. We extended the traditional Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation (NLSE) to include higher-order nonlinearities and spatiotemporal dispersion, capturing the complexities of light pulse propagation. Employing the modified auxiliary equation method and Adomian Decomposition Method (ADM), we derived a spectrum of exact traveling wave solutions, encompassing exponential, rational, trigonometric, and hyperbolic functions. These solutions provide insights into soliton behaviors across diverse parameters, essential for optimizing fiber optic systems. The precision of our analytical solutions was validated through numerical solutions, and we explored modulation instability, revealing conditions for soliton formation and evolution. The findings have significant implications for the design and optimization of next-generation optical communication technologies.
