Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 3Intensity Fluctuations of Higher-Order Laser Modes in Jet Engine Exhaust Turbulence(Optica Publishing Group, 2025) Baykal, Yahya KemalIntensity fluctuations quantified by the scintillation index are evaluated in jet engine exhaust turbulence when higher-order laser modes are used in optical wireless communication links. The jet engine exhaust turbulence power spectrum, modified by low-pass and high-pass filters, is employed. Intensity fluctuations are evaluated against the link length, structure constant, wave number (inverse of wavelength) (i.e., against turbulence strength), source size, and jet engine exhaust turbulence parameters. It is found that higher-order laser modes are better at mitigating the scintillations. Jet engine exhaust turbulence parameters are found to affect scintillations substantially.

Average intensity at the receiver plane is found when the HOAG source field is used as excitation. The effects of the HOAG beam on different tissue types of the upper dermis (human), liver parenchyma (mouse), intestinal epithelium (mouse), and deep dermis (mouse) are studied. Variations of the average intensity versus the source and medium parameters such as the strength coefficient of the refractive-index fluctuations, propagation distance, wavelength, and beam size are presented. The results show that all modes of the HOAG beam can successively transmit beam energy at different levels of turbulence for all tissue types. At the same turbulence strength, HOAG beams having larger mode numbers transmit higher intensity to receivers than the modes with smaller mode orders, which is valid for all the examined tissue types. As the strength of tissue turbulence increases, the HOAG beam slowly turns into a pure Gaussian beam. For the different tissue types, the highest beam intensity at the receiver was observed for the deep dermis (mouse) tissue type. Despite the change in wavelength, refractive-index fluctuations, and source beam size, the highest beam transmission through the tissue in a turbulent environment was also observed for this same tissue type. This research may be useful in understanding the fundamentals of lighttissue interaction of HOAG laser beams, which may improve noninvasive disease detection and therapy methods through tissue in biophotonic technologies.

Piston, tilt, defocus and coma components of adaptive optics corrections are applied to the avalanche photodetector (APD) type of receiver and the results are obtained depending on various turbulence and receiver parameters. The lognormal channel distribution is used to model the weak atmospheric turbulence conditions. Adaptive optics correction increases the bit-error-rate (BER) performance of an OWC system operating in atmospheric turbulence conditions. Piston component yields the highest BER performance, followed by the tilt, defocus and coma adaptive optics correction components respectively.Article Citation - WoS: 49Citation - Scopus: 47Scintillation Index of Higher-Order Cos-Gaussian, Cosh-Gaussian and Annular Beams(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2008) Arpali, Serap Altay; Eyyuboglu, Halil T.; Baykal, YahyaIn this paper, via the generalized beam formulation, we evaluate the scintillation index for higher-order general beams propagating through the weak atmospheric turbulence. The investigated higher-order beam types are cos-Gaussian, cosh-Gaussian and annular beams. The scintillation indices of these beams are plotted with respect to propagation length, source size and order of the beam. According to our graphical outputs, higher-order beams have less on-axis scintillation index than zero-order beams at longer propagation distances. The on-axis scintillation exhibits a slight increase when the order of even-ordered beams is made higher. Moreover, our study on the source size variation shows that, for most of the source size range, cos-Gaussian beams have a lower scintillation index than the other beams.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4The Performance Bounds of an Optical Communication System Using Irradiance Profile Modulation(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2017) Eyyuboglu, Halil T.We assess the performance bounds of an optical communication system that uses irradiance profile modulation. This modulation is based on the four different orders of vortex beams. To this end, we find the turbulence induced average irradiance profiles of Gaussian, Bessel-Gaussian and modified Bessel-Gaussian vortex beams on the receiver plane. Each one is then cross correlated against the free space equivalents. Plotting the cross-correlation coefficients, it becomes possible to identify the borders of correct decision and error regions, thus, deduce the performance bounds of such a system. When measured in terms of structure constant, i.e. the turbulence strength and the propagation length being fixed to 3km, it is seen that the error region extends beyond the structure constant values of 10(-13) m(-2/3) and higher. There seem to be some variations with the beam type and the order of the vortex beam. The performance of Bessel-Gaussian vortex beam comes out to be slightly better than the rest.Article Citation - WoS: 29Citation - Scopus: 35Ber Evaluations for Multimode Beams in Underwater Turbulence(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2016) Arpali, Serap Altay; Baykal, Yahya; Arpali, CaglarIn underwater optical communication links, bit error rate (BER) is an important performance criterion. For this purpose, the effects of oceanic turbulence on multimode laser beam incidences are studied and compared in terms of average BER (< BER >), which is related to the scintillation index. Based on the log-normal distribution, < BER > is analysed for underwater turbulence parameters, including the rate of dissipation of the mean squared temperature, the rate of dissipation of the turbulent kinetic energy, the parameter that determines the relative strength of temperature and salinity in driving index fluctuations, the Kolmogorov microscale length and other link parameters such as link length, wavelength and laser source size. It is shown that use of multimode improves the system performance of optical wireless communication systems operating in an underwater medium. For all the investigated multimode beams, decreasing link length, source size, the relative strength of temperature and salinity in driving the index fluctuations, the rate of dissipation of the mean squared temperature and Kolmogorov microscale length improve the < BER >. Moreover, lower < BER > values are obtained for the increasing wavelength of operation and the rate of dissipation of the turbulent kinetic energy in underwater turbulence.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Correction of Amplitude Distortions for Truncated Bessel Beam and Ser Estimation for 4ask(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2016) Eyyuboglu, Halil T.We apply amplitude corrections to a truncated Bessel beam that has propagated through turbulent atmosphere modelled by random phase screens. These corrections are realized via transmitting an unmodulated beam in parallel to the one carrying the 4 amplitude shift keying (ASK) modulated message signal. On the receiver side, the amplitude corrections are obtained by dividing the intensity of the unmodulated beam by its free space equivalence. The corrections are then used to restore the amplitude distortions of the beam carrying the 4ASK modulated message signal and in the determination of decision boundaries for the received 4ASK symbols. The success of the system is visually inspected by comparing the received intensity profiles before and after the application of corrections. Furthermore, simulation analysis of symbol error rate (SER) is made, where the proposed set-up is found to be quite insensitive to wavelength difference between the unmodulated and modulated beams. On the other hand, the difference in the structure constant values of these two beams seems to have profound effect on system performance.Article Citation - WoS: 16Citation - Scopus: 17Turbulence Effect on Transmittance of Atmospheric Optics Telecommunication System Using Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2011) Ata, Yalcin; Baykal, YahyaThe effect of atmospheric turbulence on atmospheric optics telecommunication links employing dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) systems is examined. For this purpose, transmittance obtained by using the MODTRAN (MODerate resolution atmospheric TRANsmission) code is modified by the transmittance due to turbulence when the incidence is a partially coherent optical beam. The spanned wavelengths cover the range employed in a practical DWDM system operating in the range of 1550 nm. The effect of turbulence is manifest as a decrease in the transmittance calculated by MODTRAN, being more effective when the incidence becomes less coherent.
