Optiwave software can be used in different industries and applications, including Fiber Optic Communication, Sensing, Pharma/Bio, Military & Satcom, Test & Measurement, Fundamental Research, Solar Panels, Components / Devices, etc..
OptiSystem is a comprehensive software design suite that enables users to plan, test, and simulate optical links in the transmission layer of modern optical networks.
OptiSPICE is the first circuit design software for analysis of integrated circuits including interactions of optical and electronic components. It allows for the design and simulation of opto-electronic circuits at the transistor level, from laser drivers to transimpedance amplifiers, optical interconnects and electronic equalizers.
OptiFDTD is a powerful, highly integrated, and user friendly CAD environment that enables the design and simulation of advanced passive and non-linear photonic components.
OptiBPM is a comprehensive CAD environment used for the design of complex optical waveguides. Perform guiding, coupling, switching, splitting, multiplexing, and demultiplexing of optical signals in photonic devices.
The optimal design of a given optical communication system depends directly on the choice of fiber parameters. OptiFiber uses numerical mode solvers and other models specialized to fibers for calculating dispersion, losses, birefringence, and PMD.
Emerging as a de facto standard over the last decade, OptiGrating has delivered powerful and user friendly design software for modeling integrated and fiber optic devices that incorporate optical gratings.
Modal analysis is a pivotal component of modelling optical structures. OptiMode serves as a robust CAD platform for the design and modal analysis of waveguide structures.

Yes! And also by the nonlinear effects. When the optical power injected into the optical fiber is high, these effects show a considerable effect. You might have heard of self-phase modulation (SPM), cross-phase modulation (XPM) and the four-wave mixing (FWM) as some examples of nonlinear effects.
On the second page from the file you have uploaded, it can be seen that the transmission effects are divided into two categories, one being nonlinear effects. And the three examples I have mentioned are also among the nonlinear effects. I don’t know why it has not been mentioned on the first page, but on the second page those two factors are also mentioned.
Noise is usually considered a linear effect (eg: ASE from optical amplifiers). Anyway, there are propagation models where the noise itself incorporates both linear and nonlinear effect, like the GN-model.
I believe both nonlinear effects and the dispersion effect (which may degrade signal by causing inter-symbol interference) can be considered as noise in the transmission line. I don’t know if in the above lecture the nonlinear effects have been considered as the noise factor in the optical fiber.
i would like to add non-linear effects become significant at high powers which are required for long distance transmission. also in case of multi-channel systems as the channel spacing id reduced non-linear effects cannot be ignored. rather for WDM systems XPM and FWM non-linear effects are most deteriorating. SPM( Single Phase modulation) is significant for single channel systems only.
