title: Reduction of soliton phase jitter by in-line phase conjugation.
abstract: The main impairment of differential-phase-shift-keyed communication systems is phase jitter. Noise-induced phase jitter, which is mediated by self-phase modulation, can be reduced significantly by a small number of in-line phase conjugators.
