GreenwoodFreq
MATLAB
fG = GreenwoodFreq(alpha,lambda,S,Atm)
Description

Computes the Greenwood frequency for propagation given turbulence assumptions, engagement parameters, and wavelength. Returns NaN if propagation path intersects earth surface.

Parameters

Description 
alpha [vector] 
Multiplier on turbulence model 
lambda [scalar] 
Wavelength of laser (m) 
S [struct] 
Engagement parameters. Must be a structure from EngagementStruct or GeomStruct
Atm [struct] 
Atmospheric modeling parameter structure from AtmStruct. Atm must have wind profile/heading if calculation with wind is desired.
