Article Citation - WoS: 183Citation - Scopus: 193Analysis of Reciprocity of Cos-Gaussian and Cosh-Gaussian Laser Beams in a Turbulent Atmosphere(Optical Soc Amer, 2004) Eyyuboglu, HT; Baykal, YIn a turbulent atmosphere, starting with a cos-Gaussian excitation at the source plane, the average intensity profile at the receiver plane is formulated. This average intensity profile is evaluated against the variations of link lengths, turbulence levels, two frequently used free-space optics wavelengths, and beam displacement parameters. We show that a cos-Gaussian beam, following a natural diffraction, is eventually transformed into a cosh-Gaussian beam. Combining our earlier results with the current findings, we conclude that cos-Gaussian and cosh-Gaussian beams act in a reciprocal manner after propagation in turbulence. The rates (paces) of conversion in the two directions are not the same. Although the conversion of cos-Gaussian beams to cosh-Gaussian beams can happen over a wide range of turbulence levels (low to moderate to high), the conversion of cosh-Gaussian beams to cos-Gaussian beams is pronounced under relatively stronger turbulence conditions. Source and propagation parameters that affect this reciprocity have been analyzed.

This current eliminates the reflected fields, coming from the first stationary point of the reflection integral and only creates a reflected diffracted field. The incident scattered fields are found from the same integral, written for the perfectly conducting half plane. The scattered fields are evaluated by using the stationary phase method and edge point technique. The evaluated fields are plotted numerically.

The first function is derived by considering the sum of the first term of the Fresnel integral's asymptotic expansion {(F) over cap (x)} and an exponential function which approaches to infinity at the zero of the Fresnel function's argument and has the properties of a unit step function. The second one is the sum of a unit step function and the transition function defined for the simplified uniform theory of diffraction. The third function considers directly eliminating the infinity coming from (F) over cap (x). The amplitude and the phase of Fresnel integral and its equivalent functions are compared numerically. The result is applied to the modified theory of physical optics solution of the diffraction of edge waves from a half plane problem.

The surface integral is constructed by use of the impedance boundary condition. The aperture equivalent current is estimated from the behavior of the reflected diffracted field. The integrals obtained are evaluated asymptotically and compared with the exact solution numerically.

Variations of the on-axis scintillation of an EGB are studied. It is interesting to find that the scintillation index of an EGB can be smaller than that of a circular Gaussian beam in a weakly turbulent atmosphere under certain conditions and is closely related to the ratio of the beam waist size along the long axis to that along the short axis of the EGB, the wavelength, and the structure constant of the turbulent atmosphere.

It is found that the Kolmogorov five-thirds power law of WSF is also valid for oceanic turbulence in the inertial range. The changes of the WSF and the spatial coherence radius versus different parameters of oceanic turbulence are examined.

The uniform field representations are obtained with the aid of the uniform theory, put forward by Umul. The geometrical optics and diffracted and scattered fields are examined numerically.

The Rytov method is employed together with the equivalent structure constant, which makes our results valid in weak turbulence. In the limiting case, our solution correctly reduces to the known scintillation index of the Gaussian beam in Kolmogorov turbulence. For all the higher-order even modes, increase in the power law exponent, a of the non-Kolmogorov spectrum is found to increase the scintillations. When the source size of the higher-order modes is large, higher-order even modes attain almost the same scintillation index values for all a. However, for small source sizes, being valid for any realization of the non-Kolmogorov spectrum, the scintillations decrease as the mode order becomes large. The changes in the propagation distance, structure constant, and the wavelength do not vary these trends.

Phys. 461, 107 (1960)]. The two half-planes, located at the same coordinate plane, have different surface resistivities. The new field expression is compared with the solution of Senior ["Diffraction by a material junction,"http://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/handle/2027.42/21043] for the scattered waves. The important aspects of the approach are discussed in the light of the numerical results.

Variations of the scintillation index of a twisted GSM beam on propagation in turbulent atmosphere are studied in detail. It is interesting to find that the scintillation index of a twisted GSM beam can be smaller than that without twist phase in weak turbulent atmosphere. Thus, modulation of the twist phase of a partially coherent beam provides a new way to reduce turbulence-induced scintillation. (C) 2012 Optical Society of America
