Abstract

The optical scheme and technical characteristics an experimental setup are described for atmospheric studies of the possibility of compensating for aberrations of the initial wavefront of an optical beam by the aperture sensing technique based on the atmospheric backscatter signal of radiation from an additional laser source.
