Abstract
Remote positioning by precise measurements of lateral displacements of laser beams at large distances is inevitably disturbed by the influence of atmospheric turbulences. Here we propose the use of optical vortices, which exhibit lower transversal variations at an experimentally validated range of 100 meters. We show the higher precision of the localization of vortex points as compared with standard centroid-based assessment of Gaussian beams. Numerical simulations and experimental measurements show further improvements by averaging of the positions of up to four secondary vortices forming a stable constellation when higher values of the topological charges are used.
