Abstract:

The paper deals with the study of spatial structure of irradiance behind the receiving lens of a facility for sounding the sea surface with a narrow laser beam through the atmosphere. Analytical expressions are derived for the mean irradiance at the image plane of the receiving lens for the cases of clear and optically dense aerosol atmosphere. It is shown that the sea surface roughness can essentially increase the image size.
