In this paper, the linear polarization light satisfied nonlinear coupled differential equations containing the Raman effect are utilized in a low birefringence fiber. The coupling model equation satisfied by the Stokes parameters is derived by introducing the Stokes parameters. Poincaré sphere is used to analyze the influence of Raman scattering effect on the state of polarization evolution in the low-birefringence fiber. The results show that the state of polarization evolution can be changed and the polarization ellipticity can also be changed due to Raman scattering effect in the low birefringence fiber when between the input power and motion constants satisfy a certain relation.
