Journal ArticleDOI
Turbulence strength parameter in laboratory and natural optical experiments in non-Kolmogorov cases
TL;DR: In this article, deviations in the behavior of structural function of a heated turbulent medium refractive index are studied in laboratory and natural experiments and it is shown that these deviations should be connected with the heating and helicity level of this medium.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Optimum transmitter optics aperture for free space satellite optical communication as a function of tracking system performance
TL;DR: A mathematical model including theperformance of the communication system as a function of the performance of the tracking system is derived and from this model the optimum transmitter telescope gain is derived.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
High-resolution restoration of images distorted by the atmosphere, based upon average atmospheric modulation transfer function
TL;DR: In this paper, a real-time high resolution imaging through the atmosphere is presented based on the knowledge of average atmospheric MTF at the time the image is received, which can be used to help overcome the jitter characteristics of turbulence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Terahertz Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave Radar Using Glow Discharge Detector
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a simple way to measure the distance to the object target with high resolution based on very inexpensive glow discharge detectors (GDDs) at terahertz (THz) band frequencies.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of excited atoms in UV photopreionization TEA lasers
TL;DR: In this article, a simple model of photoionization of excited atoms by UV photons from capacitor spark discharges is suggested to explain the improvement in both plasma density production and laser efficiency noticed by several investigators when the proportion of helium in high-pressure CO 2 laser mixtures is increased.
