Multimode field correlations are evaluated in atmospheric turbulence. High order field correlations are special cases of the results that we obtained in this paper. Field correlations are presented for various numbers of mul- timodes, various multimode contents of the same number of modes, and various high order modes versus the diagonal distance from various receiver points, source size, link length, structure constant, and the wavelength. Our results will be of help especially in the design of heterodyne systems operating in turbulent atmosphere and fiber coupling efficiency in systems employing multimode excitation.(c) 2023 Optica Publishing Group |
