Abstract :
Numerical analysis of the imperfect nonlinear optical fiber using the coupled mode theory and the split-step Fourier method, is described. The nonlinear optical fiber is divided into a large number of appropriate cylindrical segments. In the analysis of light propagation between two segments of various diameters, the coupled mode theory is used. Propagation of a pulse, in the cylindrical nonlinear segment, is analyzed using the split-step Fourier method. Some results of computation of the real nonlinear optical fibers are also presented
