The propagation of light waves in an underdense plasma is studied using one-dimensional Vlasov-Maxwell numerical simulation. It is found that the backward stimulated Raman scattering will be enhanced by electron-ion collisions. With appropriate electron-ion collision rate the Langmuir waves, driven via SRS, can be made to propagate for a long distance.
