We formulate the power scintillation as a function of transmitter and receiver coordinates in the presence of weak atmospheric turbulence by using the extended Huygens Fresnel principle. Then the effect of the receiver aperture averaging is quantified. To get consistent results, parameters are chosen within the range of validity of the wave structure functions. Radial array beams and a Gaussian weighting aperture function are used at the transmitter and the receiver, respectively. It is observed that the power scintillation decreases when the source size, the ring radius, the receiver aperture radius, and the number of array beamlet increase. However, increasing the number of array beamlets to more than three seems to have negligible effect on the power scintillation. It is further observed that the aperture averaging effect is stronger when radial array beams are employed instead of a single Gaussian beam.

We consider a MIMO FSO system, which consists of a radial laser array with partially coherent Gaussian beams at the transmitter and a detector array with Gaussian apertures at the receiver. The average power and the power correlation function at the finite-sized receiver apertures are formulated by using the extended Huygens-Fresnel principle in weak atmospheric turbulence. This let us further quantify the performance metrics such as the power scintillation index, the aperture averaging factor, and the average bit error rate (BER) as functions of system parameters. The derived power scintillation equation correctly reduces to the existing coherent and partially coherent Gaussian beam scintillation indices in the limiting cases. Using the performance metrics, we analyze the effect of various practical system parameters on the performance of a MIMO FSO system. Practical system parameters include the transmitter and receiver ring radius, number of beamlets, number of finite-aperture receivers, source size, degree of source coherence, receiver aperture radius, link distance, and the structure constant of atmosphere.
