In this paper, a propagation parameter‐mapping method for an efficient simulation to evaluate the performance of in‐line optical amplified transmission line is proposed. The method helps to extract the propagation parameters for simplified simulation from both a single‐channel and a WDM transmission line. It has been shown in the simulation results that the simplified simulation can describe the propagation behavior of optical pulses very accurately, with less than only 3% difference in the eye‐opening ratio when compared with the normal simulation method, but with a great reduction of calculation time. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
