Abstract

This work presents a new approach to the numerical simulation of optical fibers. The finite element method with exact boundary condition is formulated and practically studied. This method has a good inner convergence by the number of mesh points and Fourier´s harmonics. The method is used for effective calculation of a new type of optical fiber
