TiltVariance
MATLAB
[T02, ratio] = TiltVariance([PropDir],alpha,TxD,[RxD],Atm,...
                  [fmin],[L0],[TOL])
Description

This function calculates tilt variance in a limited band and the ratio of the band-limited tilt variance to the full band tilt variance. The input PropDir sets the direction of propagation and indicates at which point tilt is to be measured. 'BACKWARD' and 'FORWARD' calculate tilt on a focal plane. 'BACKWARD-AP' and 'FORWARD-AP' calculate tilt in the aperture plane.

Parameters
Parameters 
Description 
PropDir [string] 
(Optional) Propagation direction. 'BACKWARD' (default), 'FORWARD', 'BACKWARD-AP', or 'FORWARD-AP' 
alpha [scalar] 
Turbulence multiplier 
TxD [scalar] 
Transmit aperture diameter (m) 
RxD [scalar] 
(Optional) Receive aperture diameter (m). Defaults to zero (focused beam). 
Atm [struct] 
Discrete atmospheric structure from AtmStruct with turbulence profile 
fmin [scalar] 
(Optional) Minimum spatial frequency present (1/m). Defaults to zero. 
L0 [scalar] 
(Optional) Outer scale of turbulence. Defaults to inf unless contained in Atm. 
TOL [scalar] 
(Optional) Relative tolerance for quad. Default is 1e-6.
