Light propagation in optical fibers.

Light propagation in graded-index optical fibers.

An accurate numerical method is described for solving the Helmholtz equation for a general class of optical fibers. The method yields detailed information about the spatial and angular properties of the propagating beam as well as the modal propagation constants for the fiber. The method is applied to a practical graded-index fiber under the assumptions of both coherent and incoherent illuminat...

Soliton Propagation in Nonuniform Optical Fibers

In this paper, we construct the Lax pair for a soliton transmission system in nonuniform optical fibers and give N-soliton solution using the Darboux transformation. The explicit one-soliton and two-soliton solutions are presented. Further, we discuss the interaction scenario between two neighboring solitons and the effect of the inhomogeneities of the fiber (z0) on the interaction between two ...

Nonlinear pulse propagation in optical fibers.

We discuss the propagation of nonlinear optical pulses in fibers. The wave equation is solved taking the radial dependence in an average way. The radius versus wavelength curves for "no dispersion" in SiO(2) glass are calculated and plotted. These no-dispersion curves separate the regions of light and dark solitons supported by the fibers.
