A method to probe the guiding characteristics of waveguides formed in real-time is proposed and evaluated. It is based on the analysis of the time dependent light distribution observed at the exit face of the waveguide while progressively altering its index profile and probed by a large diameter optical beam. A beam propagation method is used to model the observed dynamics. The technique is applied to retrieve the properties of soliton-induced waveguides.
