Abstract Features of optical pulse transmission in a guiding-centre soliton communication system are discussed. The pulse centre jitter and energy fluctuation due to ASE noise in optical amplifiers of the system and the relationships between these effects and the parameters of the system are analyzed. Capability of the maxi-mum length-bit-rate product is estimated, and the capability of the system is compared with that of the common lumped energy compensated system.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
