摘要: 本文利用广义惠更斯-菲涅尔原理结合Goodman目标散射理论，推导出了激光探测中目标反射光的交叉谱密度函数解析式，并进一步得到了目标反射光的光强分布和空间相干长度表达式。利用得到的表达式在湍流大气条件下，分析了不同光源参数和目标反射光参数对目标反射光光强分布和相干长度的影响。研究结果表明：光源相干长度对归一化反射光强影响较小；光源束腰半径和反射光斑半径值越大接收光的相干长度值越小；随着传输距离的增加，相干长度增加越来越缓慢；在弱湍流大气传输过程中，光源参数对接收光的影响占主导作用，光源束腰半径越大接收光的光强和相干长度值越小；在强湍流大气传输过程中，大气湍流对反射光的影响起主导作用。Abstract: In this paper, the cross-spectral density function of target reflected light in laser detection is obtained by using generalized Huygens-Fresnel principle and Goodman target scattering theory. On the basis of above, the expression of intensity distribution and spatial coherence length of target reflected light is derived. The influence of different light source and target reflected light parameters on the intensity distribution and coherent length of the target reflected light is simulated by using the expressions obtained in this paper under turbulent atmospheric conditions. The results show that the coherence length of the light source has little effect on the normalized light intensity distribution; the coherence length of the received light is smaller with a larger beam waist radius and reflected light radius, and the coherence length increases at a slower rate as the transmission distance increases. In the process of weak turbulent atmospheric transmission, the influence of light source parameters on the received light is much stronger. The larger the beam waist radius, the smaller the received light intensity and coherence length value. During strong turbulent atmospheric transmission, the influence of atmospheric turbulence on the received light is dominant.
