Abstract
Based on the extended Huygens-Fresnel principle, the expressions of degree of coherence, ellipticity, and beam wander of multi-Gaussian Schell-model beam through the anisotropic turbulence are derived. Their statistical properties in anisotropic turbulence are illustrated numerically. The results show that the beam width and beam wander of multi-Gaussian Schell-model beam decrease with the increase of the mode order or the decrease of the turbulence structure parameter and initial coherence and that the degree of coherence of multi-Gaussian Schell-model beam decreases with the increase of the turbulence structure parameter or the decrease of the mode order. Furthermore, the beam wander of multi-Gaussian Schell-model beam is smaller than that of Gaussian Schell-model beam under the same conditions.
