The possibility of producing self-similar frequency-modulated (FM) optical wave packets in length-inhomogeneous active fibres is studied for optical pulses with the initial Gaussian, hyperbolic-secant or parabolic shape. The conditions for converting these pulses into stable parabolic-type pulses with a constant frequency-modulation rate are considered. It is shown that the use of FM pulses of parabolic shape in active and length-inhomogeneous fibres can ensure the creation of an all-fibre generator-amplifier-compressor system with peak powers up to 1 MW and higher in the generated pulses.
