Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 9Multimode Beam Propagation Through Atmospheric Turbulence(Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2024) Baykal, Yahya; Ata, Yalcin; Gercekcioglu, Hamza; Gokce, Muhsin CanerThe investigation focuses on studying the propagation characteristics of multimode lasers in the turbulent amosphere. By employing the Huygens-Fresnel integral, we develop analytical formulations for various propagation parameters. These include the average intensity distribution, kurtosis parameter, beam spread, and the average transmittance of multimode beams in turbulent atmosphere. Our findings reveal that as the propagation distance or the structure constant of the atmosphere increases, i.e., turbulence becomes stronger, the kurtosis parameter and the beam spread increase. The multimode beam exhibits a Gaussian like intensity profile when the propagation distance is significantly increased or when the structure constant becomes sufficiently large. For the case of the Gaussian beam, the kurtosis parameter is found to be 3. The multimode beam's kurtosis parameter rises as the turbulence becomes stronger and eventually approaches 3. Raising the mode content leads to a rise in the average transmittance; however, it leads to a decline in the Kurtosis parameter and the beam spread.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 6Mitigation of Atmospheric Turbulence on Up and Downlink Optical Communication Systems Using Receiver Diversity and Adaptive Optics(Springer, 2022) Gokce, Muhsin Caner; Baykal, Yahya; Ata, YalcinImprovement in the performance of uplink and downlink optical communication systems by means of receive diversity and adaptive optics correction is investigated. We develop a communication system model using adaptive optics correction in the transmitter and maximum ratio combining diversity technique in the receiver. The effect of adaptive optics correction modes, receive diversity, zenith angle, link length, wind speed and the height of transmitter/receiver on the ground are evaluated. Performance improvement is observed with both adaptive optics correction and the receive diversity. It is aimed to provide researchers an option to determine the method they will use to reduce the effect of turbulence. As the numerical values of the main results, we report that adaptive optics correction with 5 mode Zernike removal reduces BER from 10(-8) to 10(-10) for one receiver. When the number of receivers is 6, BER is found to reduce from 10(-6) to 10(-12). The results obtained in this study can be beneficial to optimize the design of the slant path uplink and downlink optical communication links between the ground and low-orbit satellites that are exposed to atmospheric turbulence.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 8Effect of Partial Coherence on Signal-To Ratio Performance of Free Space Optical Communication System in Weak Turbulence(Elsevier, 2022) Aymelek, Goerkem; Yolcu, Beguem; Kayam, Orkun; Unal, Onur; Caner Gokce, Muhsin; Baykal, Yahya; Akbucak, Volkan; Gökçe, Muhsin CanerThe effect of source coherence on the average signal-to-noise ratio ((SNR)) performance of free space optical communication (FSOC) systems operating in weak atmospheric turbulence is investigated with the help of the extended Huygens-Fresnel principle. For an FSOC system that uses a partially coherent laser source, first, the received power at the finite-sized receiver aperture is derived. Then, the power scintillation index is evaluated that reflects the aperture averaging. Using these derived optical entities, the variations of (SNR) are examined versus parameters such as the degree of source coherence, wavelength, link distance, source size, structure constant of atmosphere and the receiver aperture radius. Obtained results show that a decrease in the degree of source coherence has a positive effect on (SNR).Article Beam wander of J 0- and i 0-Bessel Gaussian beams propagating in turbulent atmosphere(2010) Çil, C.Z.; Eyyuboğlu, H.T.; Baykal, Y.; Korotkova, O.; Cai, Y.Root mean square (rms) beam wander of J 0-Bessel Gaussian and I 0-Bessel Gaussian beams, normalized by the rms beam wander of the fundamental Gaussian beam, is evaluated in atmospheric turbulence. Our formulation is based on the first and the second statistical moments obtained from the Rytov series. It is found that after propagating in atmospheric turbulence, the collimated J 0-Bessel Gaussian and the I 0-Bessel Gaussian beams have smaller rms beam wander than that of the Gaussian beam, regardless of the choice of Bessel width parameter. However, the extent of such an advantage depends on the chosen width parameter, Gaussian source size, propagation distance and the wavelength. Focusing at finite distances of the considered beams causes the rms beam wander to decrease sharply at the propagation distances equal to the focusing parameter.Article Citation - WoS: 34Citation - Scopus: 36Hermite Gaussian Beam Scintillations in Weak Atmospheric Turbulence for Aerial Vehicle Laser Communications(Elsevier, 2020) Sayan, Omer F.; Gercekcioglu, Hamza; Baykal, YahyaScintillation index of Hermite Gaussian beams used for air vehicle communication systems in vertical paths of weak atmospheric turbulent medium are investigated by employing the modified Rytov method. By evaluating the on-axis scintillation index, variations of the scintillation indices of these beams are examined against the changes in the Gaussian beam size of the Hermite Gaussian beam mode, propagation distances and the zenith angles at the realistic propagation distances involved in uplink and downlink configurations. In the atmospheric environment, for uplink, the Hermite Gaussian beam modes have no advantage over the Gaussian beams at short propagation distances like L = 20 km,as well as at long propagation distances like L = 700 km. However, for downlink, although Hermite Gaussian beam modes are disadvantageous over the Gaussian beams at short propagation distances like L = 20 km, they are found advantageous over the Gaussian beams at long propagation distances like L = 700 km. The results of this study may encourage to use Hermite Gaussian beams, especially in the air vehicle laser communication links, and can be used in the design of an optical wireless communication link utilizing the vertical atmospheric medium.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 11Error Performance of Optical Wireless Communication Systems Exercising Bpsk Subcarrier Intensity Modulation in Non-Kolmogorov Turbulent Atmosphere(Elsevier Science Bv, 2019) Baykal, Yahya; Gokce, Muhsin Caner; Ata, YalcinSubcarrier intensity modulation (SIM) scheme is preferred due to efficient bandwidth usage superiority over other modulation techniques such as on-off keying (OOK), pulse position modulation (PPM). In this paper, we investigate the bit error rate (BER) performance of optical wireless communication (OWC) system using binary phase shift keying (BPSK) SIM in non-Kolmogorov turbulent atmosphere. We pay attention to the weak turbulence conditions by using Rytov approximation and considering that the receiver is a PIN photodetector. Propagating beam type is Gaussian. It is seen that BER performance of the BPSK SIM OWC is significantly affected from non-Kolmogorov power law exponent, load resistor, responsivity of the PIN photodetector, bandwidth, beam source size, turbulence strength and noise factor.Article Citation - WoS: 24Citation - Scopus: 26Average Channel Capacity in Anisotropic Atmospheric Non-Kolmogorov Turbulent Medium(Elsevier, 2019) Baykal, Yahya; Gokce, Muhsin Caner; Ata, YalcinThe average channel capacity of a free space optical (FSO) communication system running an intensity modulated Gaussian beam is examined in anisotropic non-Kolmogorov atmospheric weak turbulence based on Rytov variance. Results are obtained by employing the log-normal distribution of irradiance fluctuations corresponding to weak turbulence regime. Our results show that average channel capacity increases together with the increase in anisotropy factor in x and y direction, non-Kolmogorov power law exponent, quantum efficiency of photo detector, Gaussian beam source size and the inner scale length. However, the average channel capacity is found to decrease when turbulence strength, link length and noise variance increase.Article Citation - WoS: 23Citation - Scopus: 23Ber of Asymmetrical Optical Beams in Oceanic and Marine Atmospheric Media(Elsevier Science Bv, 2017) Baykal, YahyaThe average bit-error-rate (BER) performances of asymmetrical optical Gaussian beams propagating in oceanic and marine atmospheric turbulence are examined. Both type of media are assumed to exhibit weak turbulence. The effect of asymmetry factor on the BER performance are investigated in conjunction with 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 and the rate of dissipation of kinetic energy per unit mass of fluid, and with the marine atmospheric link parameters of the link length and the structure constant. Also, the variations of the BER against the source size of various asymmetrical beams are scrutinized in both oceanic and marine atmospheric media.
