The atmospheric propagation of Near Infrared (NIR) high-power laser beams is affected by the thermal interactions of the electromagnetic beam with the air and the phase perturbations caused by the air inhomogeneities. These interactions lead to inefficient delivery of energy to far field surface. In this work, the implementation of a simulation model integrating thermal distortions induced by the laser beam and the turbulence of atmosphere is presented. Additionally, an iterative learning method is integrated in the simulator to correct the laser beam profile using a deformable mirror. Simulations are realized for a 1.5 kW laser beam at 1064 nm propagating along 150 m propagation path.
