By applying a concise and straightforward method, the variable-coefficient discrete(G /G)-expansion method, we solve the nonlinear differential–difference equations associated with the network. We obtain some exact traveling wave solutions which include hyperbolic function solution, trigonometric function solution, rational solutions with arbitrary function, bright as well as dark solutions.展开更多

Traditional methods for avoiding mode mixing in identical coupled nonlinear electrical lines consist of adding the same number of linear inductors in each branch. Adding linear inductors in a single line leads to asymmetric coupled nonlinear electrical transmission lines which propagate the signal and the mode mixing. On one hand, the difference between the two lines induced the fission for only one mode of propagation. This fission is influenced by the amplitude of the signal and the amount of the input energy as well; it also narrows the width of the input pulse soliton, leading to a possible increasing of the bit rate. On the other hand, the dissymmetry of the two lines converts the network into a good amplifier for the ω_ mode which corresponds to the regime admitting low frequencies.展开更多

By means of a method based on the semi-discrete limit and in suitably scaled coordinates, we derive the two-dimensional NLS equation governing the propagation of slowly modulated waves in the network. The exact transverse solution is found and the analytical criteria of stability of this solution are derived. The condition for which the network can exhibit modulational instability is also determined. The exactness of this analytical analysis is confirmed by numerical simulations performed on the exact equation of the network.展开更多
