This study takes two different solutions of homogenous wave equation into
consideration. These solutions are named as packet-like solution and non-diffracting beam.
First of all the propagation of these waves in the atmosphere is investigated. As a second
step, an obstacle (a knife edge) is located on the propagation path of the diffracting beam
and the diffraction effects are examined. The results are plotted numerically by using
MATLAB.
