Abstract

Stimulated Brillouin scattering sets a limit on the injected power in light-wave systems.1 For single-channel systems of moderate length this effect is the dominant nonlinearity, with a threshold on the order of a few milliwatts.2 As transmitter powers increase, this effect will become an important factor in system design. It is known that the Brillouin gain spectra of fibers are affected by fiber uniformity and type.3,4 Thus, the threshold for stimulated Brillouin scattering should also depend on these parameters.
