ABSTRACT:
Devices includes light receiving elements which are divided into a number of groups in which each group has a common sensitivity direction. Within such a group the elements are spatially separated from each other at a distance of at least the order of magnitude of the decorrelation length of the light in question. The originally coherent light can be detected and the direction can be determined even during real operating conditions from the information given to the light receiving elements by detecting light of a statistically more favourable distribution.
