Abstract :
The effects of stimulated Raman amplification in an optical fibre on stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) are investigated. There is a surprisingly simple and general relationship between the Raman net gain and the change in the SBS threshold power, with almost no dependence on fibre parameters
