Abstract

A Petrov-Galerkin finite element method (FEM) is developed for designing optical soliton communication, which is modeled by a nonlinear Schrodinger (NLS) equation with loss. It is proved that the numerical scheme has accuracy of order 2 and 4 with respect to the space and time variables respectively. The numerical results not only show the high accuracy and stability of the method, but also presents the physical process of optical soliton transmission, which is in good agreement with the experiment.<>
