This lecture covers the calculation process to excite a soliton of order two inside an optical fiber, involving the determination of parameters such as beta two and t zero. The instructor explains the steps to calculate the peak power required for excitation, the relationship between beta two and dispersion, and the estimation of t zero for a Gaussian pulse. By following the calculations provided, the audience can understand the theoretical background behind soliton excitation in optical fibers.
