Abstract
Theoretical and experimental studies of the local statistical characteristics of Gaussian beams propagated through the paths with strong turbulence were carried out and their results are presented. It is ascertained that the applicability of the scintillation index meanings are substantially limited for the assessment of the performance quality of the optical data transmitting channels. On the basis of the experimental data got under different propagation conditions the peculiarities of the localized intensity distributions and those of the scintillation index are revealed.
