title: Scheme for the characterization of dispersion-managed solitons.
abstract: We give a simple new derivation of the ordinary differential equations that describe approximately the behavior of dispersion-managed solitons, and a new scheme for their solution in which the nonlinear dispersive and spectral effects are clearly apparent.
