In this paper the disintegration of a solitary wave in an elliptical channel is studied when it propagates from one uniform section of the channel into another through a transition section. It is found that for an elliptical channel with constant width, fission of solitons is also possible when the solitary wave moves into a uniform section of larger depth.
