Abstract :
Transverse material inhomogeneities yielding the guiding properties of any optical fibre also cause a variation of stimulated Brillouin resonance frequency, and thus a spectral broadening as well as a reduction of the overall SBS gain. A simple model defines an effective steady SBS gain, and may explain the dispersion of available measured values
