Analysis of Dispersive Fourier Transform dataset using Dynamic Mode Decomposition: evidence of multiple vibrational modes, and their interplay in a three-soliton molecule

Abstract

We demonstrate that the Dynamic Mode Decomposition technique can effectively reduce the amount of noise in Dispersive Fourier Transform dataset; and allow for finer quantitative analysis of the experimental data. We therefore were able to demonstrate that the oscillation pattern of a soliton molecule actually results from the interplay of several elementary vibration modes.
