Scintillation and beam-wander analysis in an optical ground station-satellite uplink.
In an optical communication link between an optical ground station and a geostationary satellite the main problems appear in the uplink and are due to beam wander and to scintillation. Reliable methods for modeling both effects simultaneously are needed to provide an accurate tool with which the robustness of the communication channel can be tested. Numerical tools, especially the split-step me...
متن کاملGaussian beam propagation in maritime atmospheric turbulence: long term beam spread and beam wander analysis
Laser beam propagation in maritime environment is particularly challenging, not only for scattering and absorption due to high humidity, but also for a different behavior of atmospheric turbulence with respect to terrestrial propagation. Recently, a new power spectrum for the fluctuations of the refractive index in the Earth’s atmosphere has been introduced to describe maritime atmospheric turb...
متن کاملGaussian Beam Imaging for Converted and Surface Reflected Waves
An overview of Gaussian beam imaging is given for converted and surface reflected seismic waves. The earthquake seismology community now regularly uses seismic waves from distant sources to illuminate structures beneath seismic arrays in so-called passive imaging experiments. Similarly, reservoir structures can be imaged with seismic waves incident from below using sources in boreholes. Gaussia...
متن کاملFrame-based Gaussian Beam Summation and Seismic Head Waves
Abstract. In this paper, a two-parameter discrete Gaussian beam summation is described and then applied to SH seismic waves in a layer over a half space. For this case the exact solution for the wide-angle reflection and head wave is known by the summation of plane waves or from the modified-Cagniard method. Using Gaussian beam summations over a single angle parameter, the wide-angle reflection...
متن کاملBeam shaping using Gaussian beam modes.
A beam shaping method is presented where a diffractive optical element (DOE) is designed by optimizing the complex mode coefficient weights of a set of Gaussian beam modes. This method is compared with the more standard unidirectional approach. Differential evolution is used for the optimization in both the unidirectional and Gaussian beam mode optimization methods. For the particular transform...
