본 논문에서는 결맞음 빔결합 방식을 이용한 원거리 광학 에너지 전달 방법에 있어서 대기 외란의 영향을 위상판 모델을 사용하여 수치해석하고 분석한다. 결맞음 빔결합 방식은 3채널로 구성하고, 전송 거리는 1-2 km, 각 채널별 위상 및 조사 방향은 적절한 방식으로 보정된 것으로 가정하며, 각 채널 빔들이 자유공간을 진행할 때 발생하는 대기 외란 영향은 위상판 모델로 정량화한다. 위상판은 구조상수 값의 변동 범위 10 −15 에서 10 −13 [ ] 내에서 통계적으로 생성하여 구성한다. 특별히, 본 논의에서는대기 요동의 강도가 최종 빔결합 효율에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위해 위상판 모델의 구조 상수를 변화시켜가며 해당 목표 지점 에서 3채널 결맞음 빔결합 방식을 통해 전송된 빔의 결합 형태, 왜곡 정도 및 빔결합 효율을 계산한다. 본 수치 모델을 통해 분석한 결과, 상기 주어진 대기 요동 조건하에서도 원거리 광학 에너지 전송에 결맞음 빔결합 방식을 사용할 경우, 수신부 유효 도달 전력을 비결맞음 빔결합 방식 대비 최소 3배 이상 확보할 수 있음을 확인할 수 있다. 본 수치 모델은, 원거리 광학 에너지 전송을 전산모사함에 있어서 다양한 형태의 대기 외란의 영향 및 빔결합 방식을 분석하는데 효과적으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.
Abstract
In this paper, the effect of atmospheric turbulence is numerically modeled and analyzed via a phase-screen model, in regard to long-range optical energy transfer using coherent beam combination. The coherent-beam-combination system consists of three channel beams pointing at a target at a distance of 1-2 km. The phase and propagation direction of each channel beam are assumed to be corrected in an appropriate manner, and the atmospheric turbulence that occurs while the beam propagates through free space is quantified with a phase-screen model. The phase screen is statistically generated and constructed within the range of fluctuations of the structure constant from 10 −15 to 10 −13 [ ]. Particularly, in this discussion the shape, distortion, and combining efficiency of the 3-channel combined beam are calculated at the target plane by varying the structure constant used in the phase-screen model, and the effect of atmospheric turbulence on beam-combination efficiency is analyzed. Analysis with this numerical model verifies that when coherent beam combination is used for long-range optical energy transfer, the received power at the target can be at least three times the power obtainable by incoherent beam combination, even for maximal atmospheric fluctuation within the given range. This numerical model is expected to be effective for analyzing the effects of various types of atmospheric-turbulence conditions and beam-combination methods when simulating long-range optical energy transfer.
