Abstract

The results of experimental study of the influence of the counter wave correlation on a quality of double passage imaging through random medium. The measurements were carried out with the use of setup modeling artificial convective turbulence. It is established that under conditions of strong optical turbulence the quality of image of objects illuminated and viewed from the same point is improved when using the transmitting and receiving apertures of equal size. Obtained experimental results are in a qualitative agreement with the theoretical calculations.
