Smoothing by spectral dispersion (SSD) is employed to smooth the laser irradiation in inertial confinement fusion and its effectiveness can be affected by nonlinear effects because of some special modulation of itself. In the paper, the spatial evolution dependent on the time period of the sinusoidal phase modulated laser from SSD is investigated theoretically and numerically when the modulated laser is affected by the small-scale self-focusing(SSSF). Although the effects of SSSF for SSD's modulation and noise can be eliminated by temporal average, the time-dependent modulation intensity of laser with SSD or noise will increased quickly. The results show that the low-frequency spatial modulation from SSD sometimes can affect beam quality bigger than the small-scale noise because of its controlled small initial amplitude. The simulation results agree with the theoretical analysis.
