<title>Compensation of angular aberration in the problem of laser-power beaming to geostationary satellites: Rytov's approximation</title>

Abstract

The influence of amsoplanatism due to angular aberration on the power beaming to sateffites is considered in Rytov's approach. For universal two-parameter's model of atmospheric turbulence the correlation functions for phase and level are derived and discussed. Rigorous conditions of validity of geometrical approach in the problem discussed were obtained by straightforward expanding of diffraction results in short-wave limit keywords: angular aberration, anisoplanatism, laser power beaming, adaptive optics, satellites, atmospheric turbulence, geometrical and diffraction approaches
