Abstract

We develop an importance sampling method to perform the direct numerical computation of the probability density function of the random optical soliton phase under the influence of both amplifier spontaneous emission noise and nonlinear conversion of amplitude to phase fluctuations owing to the Kerr effect, or nonlinear phase noise.
