Effect of Wavefront Distortion on the Performance of Coherent Detection Systems: Theoretical Analysis and Experimental Research
Atmospheric turbulence causes signal beam wavefront distortion at the receiving end of a coherent detection system, which decreases the system mixing efficiency. Based on the coherent detection theory, this study establishes a mathematical model of wavefront distortion with mixing efficiency and mix...
