Scintillation reduction in pseudo Multi-Gaussian Schell Model beams in the maritime environment

Abstract: Irradiance fluctuations of a pseudo Multi-Gaussian Schell Model beam propagating in the maritime environment is explored as a function of spatial light modulator cycling rate and estimated atmospheric turnover rate. Analysis of the data demonstrates a strong negative correlation between the scintillation index of received optical intensity and cycling speed for the estimated atmospheric turnover rate.

“…In this paper we consider the scintillation problem when the source is partially coherent in time and space and the medium has time and space random fluctuations. Partially coherent sources have indeed been promoted for reducing scintillation at a receiving end in the context of laser propagation [29,2,35,26]. Most of these studies rely on physical experiments or numerics and Monte Carlo simulations to evaluate the scintillation index.…”

“…Their widespread appeal stems from the fact that, by simply manipulating spatial coherence, the source's resulting shape and polarization can be precisely controlled. Numerous researchers have designed vector partially coherent sources for applications such as free-space and underwater optical communications [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16], remote sensing [17,18], optical scattering [19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29], and particle manipulation and trapping [30][31][32][33].…”
