Abstract
On the basis of the extended Huygens-Fresnel principle and the unified theory of coherence and polarization of light, we investigate the propagation properties of the specular and anti-specular Gaussian Schell-model (GSM) beams through oceanic turbulence. It is shown that the specularity of specular GSM beams and the anti-specularity of anti-specular GSM beams are destroyed on propagation in oceanic turbulence. The spectral density and the spectral degree of coherence are also studied in detail. The results may be helpful for underwater communication.
