Abstract:

Numerical analysis of light beam propagation through the turbulent atmosphere is carried out by means of Monte Carlo method. The optimization of phase screens is proposed to raise the reliability of numerical prediction of such effects as random wandering and broadening of a beam. The influence of outer scale and the turbulence strength on the statistics of power characteristics of collimated and focused beams is studied.
