The dynamic properties of one-dimensional cubic nonlinear Schr?dinger equation and drifting of the solution pattern are investigated numerically by using the symplectic method with different nonlinear parameters in the perturbation initial condition. The numerical simulation illustrates that the system shows different dynamic behaviors with varying nonlinear parameters, but the motion in the phase space is regularly recurrent. The results show that the drifting velocity for the small nonlinear parameter is small. With the nonlinear parameter increasing, drifting velocity of the solution pattern becomes faster at the same time of evolution.
