Abstract
For dealing with the problem of too few photons in the return wave in lunar laser ranging, the effect of the atmospheric turbulence is studied. The principles of the two tracking algorithms, cross correlation and absolute difference are studied and programs are written, which are tested with solar data. Collected image data of the interested area on the lunar disc are given. The integrated tilt signals of the atmospheric wave front obtained are treated by different methods under different conditions and the algorithms are compared as to their effectiveness.
