AB We experimentally demonstrate an extremely simple techniqueto achieve pulse advancements in optical fibers by using both spontaneousamplified and stimulated Brillouin scattering. It is shown that the groupvelocity of a light signal is all-optically controlled by its average powerwhile it propagates through an optical fiber. The signal generates an intenseback-propagating Stokes emission that causes a loss on the signal throughdepletion. This narrowband loss gives rise to a fast light propagation at theexact signal frequency. The Stokes emission self-adapts in real time to theBrillouin properties of the fiber and to a wide extent to the signal bandwidth.
