    Scintillation and Bit Error Rate in Bidirectional Laser Communications Between an Aerial Vehicle and a Satellite Using Annular Optical Beams in Strong Turbulent Atmosphere
    (Optical Soc Amer, 2021) Gercekcioglu, Hamza; Baykal, Yahya
    Scintillation index is examined for annular optical beams in a strong atmospheric medium of a slant path. On-axis scintillations have small- and large-scale components and are formulated for the uplink/downlink of aerial vehicle-satellite laser communications. For this purpose, the unified Rytov method and the amplitude spatial filtering of the atmospheric spectrum are utilized. Performances given by the average bit error rate (BER) are investigated by employing the corresponding scintillation index, which is found by using intensity having gamma-gamma distribution. Strong atmospheric turbulence effects on the scintillation index and BER of the collimated annular optical beam having various thicknesses are reported for the up/down vertical links, and these are compared with the scintillations of the collimated Gaussian optical beams against propagation length, source size, and the zenith angle with the selected thickness. Utilizing the scintillations found, BER changes against average signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)are plotted for up/down vertical links. The scintillation index and BER in the downlink are found to be different than the scintillation index and BER in the uplink for strong atmospheric turbulence, mainly because the structure constant is a function of the altitude. Considering the location where the aerial vehicle and satellite are deployed as the reference points, annular beams are more advantageous than the Gaussian beams at up/down slant link lengths. The effect of the thickness of the annular beam is apparent for the uplink, where thin annular beams are more advantageous at small link lengths and thick annular beams are more advantageous at large link lengths. In the downlink, thin annular beams are more advantageous at all link lengths. (C) 2021 Optical Society of America

    Scintillation and Ber Analysis of Cosine and Cosine-Hyperbolic Beams in Turbulent Ocean
    (Optical Soc Amer, 2021) Keskin, Aysan; Baykal, Yahya
    Effects of source beam, link, and oceanic turbulence parameters on the scintillation index and bit error rate (BER) performance of cosine (cos) and cosine-hyperbolic (cosh) Gaussian light beams have been investigated in order to improve wireless optical communication link performance in oceanic turbulence. The Nikishov and Nikishov power spectrum of oceanic water and extendedHuygens Fresnel principle were used in our evaluations; the results were obtained viaMATLAB. The scintillation index andBERwere examined versus oceanic turbulence parameters, which are the rate of dissipation of mean-square temperature, the ratio of temperature and salinity contributions to the refractive index spectrum, and the dissipation rate of kinetic energy per unit fluid mass of fluid. Further, the scintillation index and BER are investigated against the source size, propagation distance, and complex displacement parameters of cos- and cosh-Gaussian beams. This study aimed to select the suitable sinusoidal beam to be employed in order to increase the performance of underwater wireless optical communication systems operating in oceanic turbulence.

    Performance of M-Ary Pulse Position Modulated Optical Wireless Communications Systems in the Marine Atmosphere
    (Optical Soc Amer, 2021) Baykal, Yahya; Ata, Yalcin; Gokce, Muhsin C.
    The marine atmosphere exhibits different turbulence spectrum characteristics when compared to the turbulence spectra of the land atmosphere and underwater medium. The performance of M-ary pulse position modulated (PPM) optical wireless communications (OWC) systems operating in the marine atmosphere, as measured by the bit error rate (BER), is studied here. In our investigation, the scintillation index and the average intensity in marine atmospheric turbulence are used. The variations of BER performance are reported against the marine atmospheric turbulence parameters for various values of the average current gain of the avalanche photodetector (APD), data bit rate of theOWClink, and M value of the M-ary PPM.

    Minimization of the Scintillation Index of Sinusoidal Gaussian Beams in Weak Turbulence for Aerial Vehicle-Satellite Laser Communications
    (Optical Soc Amer, 2021) Gercekcioglu, Hamza; Baykal, Yahya
    Minimization of the on-axis scintillation index of sinusoidal Gaussian beams is investigated by using the modified Rytov method in weak atmospheric turbulence for uplink/downlink of aerial vehicle-satellite laser communications. Among the focused cosh-Gaussian (cosh-G), cos-Gaussian (cos-G), annular, and Gaussian beams, a suitable displacement parameter for a cosh-G beam is determined that will minimize the scintillation index in uplink and downlink configurations. Then, for both uplink and downlink, the variations of the scintillation index against the propagation distance, source size, and zenith angle are examined and compared among themselves to show the optimum beam that possesses the minimum scintillation index. Sinusoidal Gaussian beams that are focused at the receiver and obtained by employing the appropriate displacement parameter, which we name the optimum beams, are recommended to obtain smaller intensity fluctuations in atmospheric wireless optical communication systems operating in vertical links in weak turbulence.

    Adaptive Optics Corrections of Scintillations of Hermite-Gaussian Modes in an Oceanic Medium
    (Optical Soc Amer, 2020) Baykal, Yahya
    Adaptive optics correction of the scintillation index is found when Hermite-Gaussian laser beams are used in oceanic turbulence. Adaptive optics filter functions are used to find how the tilt, focus, astigmatism, coma, and total correction will behave under high order mode excitation. Reduction of the oceanic scintillation under various oceanic turbulence and system parameters is examined under different high order modes. Also, the effects of the source size, wavelength, and link length on the total adaptive optics correction of Hermite-Gaussian modes in an oceanic medium are investigated for different modes.

    Snr Advantage of Anisotropy in Oceanic Optical Wireless Communications Links
    (Optical Soc Amer, 2019) Baykal, Yahya
    Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of an optical wireless communication (OWC) link that operates in anisotropic oceanic turbulence is evaluated. To find the SNR advantage of the anisotropy in the oceanic turbulent medium, SNR in anisotropic oceanic turbulence is normalized by the SNR in isotropic oceanic turbulence. The dB values of this normalized SNR are examined versus the oceanic turbulence parameters of the ratio of temperature to salinity contributions to the refractive index spectrum, the rate of dissipation of mean-squared temperature, the rate of dissipation of kinetic energy per unit mass of fluid at various oceanic anisotropic factors, the avalanche multiplication factors, the radii of receiver aperture, link lengths, and detector responsivity values. It is found that as the oceanic turbulence becomes more anisotropic, at any link parameter, the SNR of the OWC link becomes advantageous over the isotropic counterpart.

    Correlation and Structure Functions of Hermite-Sinusoidal Laser Beams in a Turbulent Atmosphere
    (Optical Soc Amer, 2004) Baykal, Y
    To study the performance of atmospheric optical links by using Hermite-sinusoidal-Gaussian laser beam sources, we derive the log-amplitude and the phase correlation and structure functions of such beams in a turbulent atmosphere. Our formulations correctly reduce to the known higher-order mode correlation and structure functions, which in turn reduce to the fundamental-mode (TEM00-mode) results. Several special cases of our formulation are presented, among which the case involving Hermite-cosh-Gaussian dependence is especially noted, since this case is of interest to us owing to the nature of cosh dependence exhibiting the concentration of the energy in the outer lobes of the beam.

    M-Ary Pulse Position Modulation Performance in Strong Atmospheric Turbulence
    (Optical Soc Amer, 2018) Baykal, Yahya; Ata, Yalcin; Gokce, Muhsin Caner
    The performance of an M-ary pulse position modulated (PPM) optical wireless communication system operating in strong atmospheric turbulence is investigated. Bit error rate (BER) is employed as the measure for the performance. In our overall performance formulation, average received power as measured by a finite-sized avalanche photodiode (APD) detector is used by the help of the extended Huygens-Fresnel principle. For the aperture averaged scintillation evaluations, the asymptotic Rytov theory with the gamma-gamma intensity statistics is utilized. Gamma-gamma statistics together with the large-scale and the small-scale log-intensity variances yield the scintillation index valid both in weak and strong atmospheric turbulence regimes. BER variations versus the plane wave scintillation index are examined at different values of receiver aperture diameters, data bit rates, M values of M-ary PPM, quantum efficiency, and average APD gain.

    Effect of Eddy Diffusivity Ratio on Underwater Optical Scintillation Index
    (Optical Soc Amer, 2017) Elamassie, Mohammed; Uysal, Murat; Baykal, Yahya; Abdallah, Mohamed; Qaraqe, Khalid
    The performance of underwater optical wireless communication systems is severely affected by the turbulence that occurs due to the fluctuations in the index of refraction. Most previous studies assume a simplifying, yet inaccurate, assumption in the turbulence spectrum model that the eddy diffusivity ratio is equal to unity. It is, however, well known that the eddy diffusivities of temperature and salt are different from each other in most underwater environments. In this paper, we obtain a simplified spatial power spectrum model of turbulent fluctuations of the seawater refraction index as an explicit function of eddy diffusivity ratio. Using the derived model, we obtain the scintillation index of optical plane and spherical waves and investigate the effect of the eddy diffusivity ratio. (C) 2017 Optical Society of America

    Structure Parameter of Anisotropic Atmospheric Turbulence Expressed in Terms of Anisotropic Factors and Oceanic Turbulence Parameters
    (Optical Soc Amer, 2019) Ata, Yalcin; Gokce, Muhsin C.; Baykal, Yahya
    The structure parameter of the anisotropic atmospheric turbulence is expressed in terms of atmospheric, oceanic anisotropic factors in x and y directions, and the oceanic turbulence parameters, which are the wavelength, the link length, the ratio of temperature to salinity contributions to the refractive index spectrum, the rate of dissipation of mean-squared temperature, and the rate of dissipation of kinetic energy per unit mass of fluid. For the purpose of expressing the structure parameter of the anisotropic atmospheric turbulence in terms of atmospheric, oceanic anisotropic factors and the oceanic turbulence parameters, the spherical wave scintillation indices that are found in weak anisotropic atmospheric turbulence and in weak oceanic turbulence are equated to each other. We aim to utilize the structure parameter expressed in this paper in the evaluations of various physical entities such as the average intensity, scintillation index, and beam spread in anisotropic oceanic turbulence by exploiting the existing solutions for the same physical entities in anisotropic atmospheric turbulence. Use of this structure parameter will help us to obtain the anisotropic oceanic turbulence results easily because such results will be found by just inserting the structure parameter expressed in this paper to the already reported corresponding results of anisotropic atmospheric turbulence.
