Abstract
Spatially inhomogeneous disorder exists widely in optical systems. We present a numerical study on the light transport properties and analysis of transmission channels in random media with inhomogeneous disorder. For the case of longitudinal inhomogeneity of disorder we find that the statistics of the transmission channels is independent of the inhomogeneity and the system can be equivalent to a counterpart with homogeneous disorder strength, both of which have the same statistical distribution of the transmission channels. However, for the case of transverse inhomogeneity of disorder, such equivalence does not exist. The distribution of the total transmission is broadened and one most transmitted incident channel emerges.
