Abstract

Power spectra, histograms and cumulants of irradiance fluctuations of collimated laser beams (He-Ne 6328 A) were measured for folded transmissions by a corner-cube reflector and a plane mirror and the direct transmission. Measurements were performed by using an at-mospheric turbulence chamber (one way path length 2.54 m) and also in the outside field (one way path length 274 meter.)
