Abstract
The intensity fluctuations in the focal plane of a receiving telescope of radiation reflected in a turbulent atmosphere have been analyzed. It was found that, when fluctuations of an incident wave are saturated, the focusing can significantly modify the variance of the reflected radiation intensity in comparison with the corresponding value in the aperture plane of the receiving telescope.
