Abstract
The statistical behavior of arbitrary paraxial light beams propagating in free space is investigated by using the Hermite-Gaussian expansion method and Fock's representation. A series of equivalent Gaussian par ameters for paraxial beam and the statistical equations for these para meters are presented. The optical transmission problem in quasi-far fi eld region is studied. The so-called general Hermite-Gaussian beam is defined.
