ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for receiving radiant energy to approximate a uniform and homogeneous radiant energy beam from a non-homogeneous beam by a sampling from the beam by an array of receiving ends of optical fibers. A first plurality of optical fibers have receiving ends disposed parallel to a first common plane and transmitting ends directed to a first detector. A second plurality of optical fibers have receiving ends disposed parallel to a second common plane and transmitting ends directed to a second detector. The first and second common planes are oriented with respect to each other at an predetermined angle for receiving radiant energy.
