Atmospheric Turbulence Simulator for Image Reconstruction

A simulator capable of generating anisoplanatic turbulent image observations through the use of correlated Zernike coefficients.

You are now following this Submission

This function implements the wave propagation through turbulence simulator proposed in Chimitt and Chan "Simulating Anisoplanatic Turbulence by Sampling Inter-modal and Spatially Correlated Zernike Coefficients". Please visit the Optical Engineering version at https://doi.org/10.1117/1.OE.59.8.083101 for a final print or arxiv.org/ab/2004.11210 for a pre-print edition. Additionally, if you find this simulator useful in your work (which is our aim in making this open source!) please consider citing the paper. Thank you!
