The characterization of curves plays an important role in both geometry and topology of almost contact manifolds. Olszak found the equation [Formula: see text] on normal almost contact manifolds. The pair [Formula: see text] denotes the type of these manifolds. In this study, we obtained the curvatures of non-geodesic Frenet curves on [Formula: see text]-dimensional normal almost contact manifolds without neglecting [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], and provided the results of their characterization. We exemplified these results with examples.

Let M be an almost contact metric manifold of dimension n = 2m + 1. The distribution D of the manifold M admits a natural structure of a smooth manifold of dimension n = 4m + 1. On the manifold M, is defined a linear connection that preserves the distribution D; this connection is determined by the interior connection that allows parallel transport of admissible vectors along admissible curves. The assigment of the linear connection is equivalent to the assignment of a Riemannian metric of the Sasaki type on the distribution D. Certain tensor field of type (1,1) on D defines a so-called prolonged almost contact metric structure. Each section of the distribution D defines a morphism of smooth manifolds. It is proved that if a semi-invariant sub­manifold of the manifold M and is a covariantly constant vec­tor field with respect to the N-connection , then is a semi-invariant submanifold of the manifold D with respect to the prolonged almost contact metric structure.
