Abstract :
(Paper written in French) This paper presents a synthesis of the various numerical methods used to study and simulate optical propagation. Then, in the results part, the split-step method is presented, based on the fast Fourier transform applied to a particular type of wave important for high-rate transmission: clear solitons of hyperbolic secant type.
