This paper considers the problem of simulating the turbulence effect on ground telescope observations. The approach presented here is an evolution of a recently proposed approach [3]. The main contributions with respect to [3] are: First, the Haar transform at the basis of the multiscale model in [3] is shown to be equivalent to a local PCA representation. This equivalence allows to reduce the computational complexity of the simulation algorithm by neglecting the components in the signal with lower energy. Furthermore, the simulation of nonstationary turbulence is obtained by properly changing the values of the multiscale model: Such change is eased by the invariance of the PCA spatial basis with respect to the change of turbulence statistical characteristics.

Abstract
This paper considers the problem of simulating the turbulence effect on ground telescope observations. The approach presented here is an evolution of a recently proposed approach [3]. The main contributions with respect to [3] are: First, the Haar transform at the basis of the multiscale model in [3] is shown to be equivalent to a local PCA representation. This equivalence allows to reduce the computational complexity of the simulation algorithm by neglecting the components in the signal with lower energy. Furthermore, the simulation of nonstationary turbulence is obtained by properly changing the values of the multiscale model: Such change is eased by the invariance of the PCA spatial basis with respect to the change of turbulence statistical characteristics. The proposed approach is validated by means of some simulations.Pubblicazioni consigliate
