Abstract
The optical configuration allowing most efficient transmission of laser beams over long distances has been determined from the computer calculations described, which give the radiation pattern and received intensity of arbitrarily truncated Gaussian aperture distributions. Some representative radiation patterns and received intensity vs. beam truncation are plotted.
