Abstract

In this work we study, theoretically and numerically, the dynamics of a pulse train in a bimodal optical fiber whose refractive index varies periodically. The mathematical model is a coupled system of nonlinear Schrodinger-like equations. The physical conditions for stable propagation are obtained and discussed.
