Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 4Adaptive Optics Compensation of M-Ary Pulse Position Modulated Communication Systems in Anisotropic Non-Kolmogorov Turbulent Atmosphere(Elsevier, 2021) Ata, Yalcin; Baykal, Yahya; Gokce, Muhsin CanerAdaptive optics compensation effect on the performance of an optical wireless communication system (OWC) employing M-ary pulse position modulation (PPM) scheme in anisotropic non-Kolmogorov turbulent atmosphere is investigated. Avalanche photodetector (APD) is used at the receiver side and log-normal channel that models the weak turbulence conditions is utilized. Anisotropy, generally resulting in better performance in OWC systems operating in the turbulent medium, combined with the adaptive optics applications will enhance the bit-error-rate (BER) of the OWC systems significantly. Results are obtained depending on various parameters for both the turbulent atmosphere and the receiver. Our work gives OWC system designers a perspective to optimize their design.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 Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 5Tissue Turbulence and Its Effects on Optical Waves: a Review(Elsevier, 2023) Ata, Yalcin; Baykal, Yahya; Gokce, Muhsin CanerTissue turbulence and the effects of tissue turbulence on the propagation of optical waves are reviewed. After the introduction of a survey on the reported research in this area, various topics are elaborated. These topics include the spectrum of tissue turbulence, propagation of light in the tissue, average intensity, beam spread that occur at the receiver plane in the tissue. Other entities examined are the signal to noise ratio (SNR), intensity correlation, beam wander, mutual coherence function and the spectral degree of coherence. Furthermore, spectral change, cross spectral density, spectral correlation function, scintillation, bit error rate (BER), coupling efficiency in tissue turbulence are investigated. The refractive index structure of tissues, imaging in the presence of turbulence in the tissue, scattering, absorption and polarization aspects in tissues are reported. Finally, optical coherence tomography applications in turbulent tissues are reviewed.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: 15Citation - Scopus: 16Binary Phase Shift Keying-Subcarrier Intensity Modulation Performance in Weak Oceanic Turbulence(Elsevier, 2019) Baykal, Yahya; Ata, Yalcin; Gokce, Muhsin CanerThe performance analysis of underwater wireless optical communication (UWOC) system that employs binary phase shift keying-subcarrier intensity modulation (BPSK-SIM) is investigated in weak oceanic turbulence. BPSK-SIM Gaussian beam and finite sized positive-intrinsic-negative (PIN) photodetector are employed at the transmitter and at the receiver, respectively. Bit error rate (BER) is taken as the performance indicator and in the evaluation of the BER, the required signal power and the aperture averaged scintillation index are obtained respectively by the use of the extended Huygens-Fresnel principle and the Rytov theory. Considering various noise types in underwater turbulence, BER variations are examined versus the oceanic turbulence parameters and the photodetector parameters, namely receiver aperture diameter, PIN-responsivity, noise factor, load resistor, and the electronic bandwidth.

Analytical formulae for the cross-spectral density and corresponding partially coherent complex curvature tensor of an off-axis GSM beam propagating in a turbulent atmosphere are derived. Based on these formulae, the propagation properties of such kind of beam in a turbulent atmosphere are investigated in detail. Furthermore, the methods are extended to investigate the propagation properties of a partially coherent laser array beam in a turbulent atmosphere. The properties of an off-axis GSM beam and a partially coherent laser array beam in a turbulent atmosphere are closely related with the beam parameters and the structure constant of the turbulent atmosphere.

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: 18Citation - Scopus: 16Ber of Annular and Flat-Topped Beams in Strong Turbulence(Elsevier, 2013) Gercekcioglu, Hamza; Baykal, YahyaThe average bit error rate (< BER >) of annular and flat-topped beams are evaluated in strong turbulence. In this respect, our earlier results on the scintillation indices obtained by the unified Rytov method are employed and the intensity is taken to be gamma-gamma distributed. For comparison purposes, < BER > for the log-normal intensity distribution is also evaluated. It is found that for the annular beams, the ones that are thinner, possessing smaller ratio of primary to secondary beam size, and smaller focal lengths will have smaller average BER in strong turbulence. For the flat-topped beams, the ones that are flatter and possessing large source sizes have smaller average BER in strong turbulence. Large average SNR substantially reduces the average BER in weak and moderate turbulence, whereas in strong turbulence, the average BER stays at the same value no matter what the average SNR is. Comparison of the log-normal and the gamma-gamma statistics for the intensity shows that the average BER will be higher for the log-normal case when the average SNR is small and the reverse relationship holds at large average SNR. For both the gamma-gamma and the log-normal intensity distributions, < BER > obtained for the annular and the, flat-topped beams in strong turbulence is advantageous over the Gaussian beam < BER > values.

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.

For each specific incidence of annular and flat-topped optical beam, a power law of non-Kolmogorov spectrum is found which is defined as the worst power law at which the average BER attains the maximum value. Using these values of the worst power laws, it is observed that thinner collimated annular, larger focal length annular and flatter small sized collimated flat-topped structures have a slight advantage in obtaining smaller average BER.
