COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF ATMOSPHERIC TURBULENCE-INDUCED LASER POWER FLUCTUATIONS IN A MONOLITHIC AND TILED OPTICAL RECEIVER SYSTEM

"This research project compares the performance of a monolithic optical receiver and a multi-aperture array, in order to reduce optical power fluctuations induced by a Gaussian beam traveling through atmospheric turbulence. This work proposes a set of six experiments which use the normalized va...

Descrição
Resumo:"This research project compares the performance of a monolithic optical receiver and a multi-aperture array, in order to reduce optical power fluctuations induced by a Gaussian beam traveling through atmospheric turbulence. This work proposes a set of six experiments which use the normalized variance of the received power as a figure of merit, to compare the fluctuations of power received with both optical collectors. At the same time, this work develops a mathematical model to describe the effects of focal spot wander and aperture averaging that explain the experimental results. Finally, the steps for the alignment of these optical receiver systems are shown."
