| Summary: | This paper considers a novel approach to solving
the general propagation equation of optical pulses in
an arbitrary non-linear medium. Using a suitable change
of variable and applying the Adomian decomposition
method to the non-linear Schrödinger equation, an analytical
solution can be obtained which takes into accountparameters
such as attenuation factor, the second order
dispersive parameter, the third order dispersive parameter
and the non-linear Kerr effect coefficient. By analysing the
solution, this paper establishes that this method is suitable
for the study of light pulse propagation in a non-linear
optical medium.
