N2 - The novel cooling technique, the coherent electron cooling [1] relies on the amplification of the interaction between hadrons and electrons by an FEL. The linearity of the amplification process is essential for operation of such cooler. In this paper we propose a theoretical method of taking into account nonlinear effects in computation of evolution of charge perturbation in an FEL. This will allow to explore the limits of the FEL gain with special attention to the smearing of the phase caused by nonlinear and saturation effects.
