Abstract:
The propagation of variously structured vortex beams of wavelength 1530 nm through a random distorting medium was experimentally investigated. An effect of the aerosol barrier on the scintillation index of the beam was analyzed. The possibility of the correlation detection of the presence of a vortex phase under the beam wandering caused by a flow of warm air was experimentally investigated.

Keywords:
information loaded beams, optical vortices, telecommunication wavelength, random fluctuations of the optical medium, scintillation index
