Abstract

Correcting scintillation for a slant path with adaptive optics (AO) has been studied. However, the models for solving this problem are all to treat the ray track as a straight line. Based on the engineering practical environment, in a low-earth-orbit (LEO) satellite-to-ground laser communication link, the properties of laser beam bending in the slant path will be studied in this paper, and the novel amendatory model of correcting the scintillation with AO will be presented.
