Abstract:

Wavelet method of spatial filtration of random intensity nonhomogeneities in distribution of intensity of a laser beam, trans-illuminating the turbulent flow, is proposed and experimentally proved. The method allows one to determine the distance to the flow and its velocity.

Keywords:

turbulence, transverse wind speed, wavelet transform
