Article Citation - WoS: 18Citation - Scopus: 17Coherence Length in Non-Kolmogorov Satellite Links(Elsevier, 2013) Baykal, YahyaBehavior of the coherence length in non-Kolmogorov satellite links is investigated. Equivalent structure constants for non-Kolmogorov spectra are employed in order to make relevant comparisons for different non-Kolmogorov power law exponents. Examining the coherence length versus the non-Kolmogorov power law exponent for different rms wind speeds, zenith angles, link lengths, structure constants and the wavelengths, the coherence length is found to decrease when the non-Kolmogorov power law exponent increases. At a fixed non-Kolmogorov power law exponent, the coherence length is found to decrease as the rms wind speed, the zenith angle or the structure constant increases and the wavelength decreases. As the link length increases, the coherence length decreases for power law exponent values smaller than that for the Kolmogorov case. However, an increase in the link length seems not to cause the coherence length to vary appreciably at power law exponent values larger than the Kolmogorov case power law exponent.

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.

The effects of the displacement parameters, the coordinates of the first receiver point and the source sizes on the field correlations of monochromatic light sources having cG and chG field distributions are investigated when such beams traverse turbulent media. Such parameters affect spatial heterodyne measurement. Field correlations found at the receiver plane reflect the combined variations of diffraction patterns and turbulence effects. To differentiate the diffraction patterns and the turbulence effects, field correlations of cG and chG beams in turbulence and in the absence of turbulence are compared. For cG beams, the oscillatory behaviour of the field correlations versus the diagonal length at the receiver plane in the absence of turbulence becomes smoother in the presence of turbulence. The received fields of cG and chG beams become decorrelated at shorter diagonal distances in turbulence.Article Citation - WoS: 18Citation - Scopus: 19Field Correlations of Flat-Topped Gaussian and Annular Beams in Turbulence(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2011) Baykal, YahyaStarting from the second order moment formulation for multi-beam incidence, field correlations at the receiver plane of flat-topped Gaussian and annular beams are found in turbulence. Reflecting the information on both the randomness due to turbulence and the field profile of the incident field, field correlations of the fiat-topped Gaussian beams are found to become larger at larger source size, smaller flatness parameters and smaller turbulence strengths. For the annular beam structures, field correlations are larger for thicker beams. Field correlations of larger primary beam sized annular incidences are smaller at smaller diagonal distances and larger at larger diagonal distances. As expected, annular beam field correlations are found to be larger at smaller structure constants and at smaller wavelengths. However, at large link lengths, field correlations could be larger than at smaller link lengths due to fact that for annular beams, the field at the centre of the receiver attains very small value at smaller link lengths, however, on propagation in turbulence, receiver field distribution changes to a Gaussian profile.
