Abstract:We investigate the effects of turbulence on pupil-plane speckle imaging system that has been proposed to provide highresolution images of a low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite using laser illumination. We present a theory and numerical results for the normalized speckle covariance for one-dimensional object in the turbulent atmosphere and demonstrate that turbulenceinduced anisoplanatism and scintillation degrades this characteristic. The effect of anisoplanatism is associated with the finite size of a satellite. … Show more
