Propagation of a finite beam through a random medium.
The differential equation for the fourth-order statistical moment of the field of a finite beam propagating in a statistically homogeneous and isotropic two-dimensional random medium is solved numerically. Results are presented for the variance and covariance of irradiance scintillations of a Gaussian beam that propagates in a medium with a Gaussian correlation function. It is shown that the ra...
متن کاملPropagation of a finite optical beam in an inhomogeneous medium.
The first part of this paper is devoted to extending the Huygens-Fresnel principle to a medium that exhibits a spatial (but not temporal) variation in index of refraction. Utilizing a reciprocity theorem for a monochromatic disturbance in a weakly inhomogeneous medium, it is shown that the secondary wave-front will be determined by the envelope of spherical wavelets from the primary wavefront, ...
متن کاملPropagation of squeezed radiation through amplifying or absorbing random media
Squeezed radiation is in a state in which one of the quadratures of the electric field fluctuates less than the other [1,2]. Such a nonclassical state is useful, because the fluctuations in the photon flux can be reduced below that of a Poisson process — at the expense of enhanced fluctuations in the phase. Sub-Poissonian noise is a delicate feature of the radiation, it is easily destroyed by t...
متن کاملMeans , Variances , and Covariances for Laser Beam Propagation through a Random Medium
Wave propagation in a random continuous medium is studied by solving the stochastic wave equation with a random function for the refractive index coefficient. By the application of the Rytov transformation, an equivalent spatial form of the nonlinear Riccati equation is obtained which is then solved by means of an iteration scheme. The statistical properties of the propagated wave are then comp...
متن کاملOptimal beam forming for laser beam propagation through random media
Focusing optical beams on a target through random propagation media is very important in many applications such as free space optical communications and laser weapons. Random media effects such as beam spread and scintillation can degrade the optical system’s performance severely. Compensation schemes are needed in these applications to overcome these random media effects. In this research, we ...
