The mode conversion of structurally stable vector beams propagating through free space optical channels

Аннотация

The reconstruction of the spatial intensity distribution of structurally stable axially symmetrical beams in free space optical data transmitting channels has been studied experimentally. The structure transformation invariants of а beam as а space code bearer are discussed. The correlation and dispersion parameters of a random process of optical density modulation are estimated; a possibility of their multiple differences in different directions perpendicular to the beam axis is shown.
