In this paper, we present a numerical approach to solve the GNLSE and analyze soliton interaction phenomena using COMSOL environment. By leveraging the capabilities of COMSOL's PDE module, we can accurately capture the dynamics of solitons and investigate their interactions. We analyze the impact of different parameters such as soliton power, initial separation distance, and dispersion characteristics on the soliton dynamics. Furthermore, we examine the role of higher-order dispersion terms in shaping the soliton interactions. Our findings demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed numerical approach in accurately simulating and analyzing soliton interaction phenomena. The COMSOL-based methodology provides a flexible and efficient framework for studying complex nonlinear optical systems, enabling researchers to gain insights into the behavior of solitons in different media and design optimized communication systems. This paper contributes to the understanding of soliton dynamics and provides a practical tool for investigating the behavior of solitons in nonlinear dispersive media. The presented numerical approach using COMSOL opens avenues for further research in nonlinear optics and fiber optic communication systems.
