    Transmittance of Partially Coherent Cosh-Gaussian, Cos-Gaussian and Annular Beams in Turbulence
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2007) Eyyuboglu, Halil T.; Baykal, Yahya
    Average relative power transmittance is evaluated, by incorporating atmospheric turbulence, for partially coherent cosh-Gaussian, cos-Gaussian, Gaussian and annular beams. For all the collimated versions of these beams, against the increasing propagation length, there is a typical trend of the decrease in the relative average power transmittance with incremental drop being much less for partially coherent cos-Gaussian beams. The change in the transmittance versus the propagation length will be similar to the corresponding collimated cases, when these beams are focused at a certain focal length. Also partially coherent beams are less sensitive to propagation length changes, except for cos-Gaussian case. Partially coherent cosh-Gaussian beams exhibit a drop in the transmittance as the displacement parameter of the beam is made larger, whereas this trend is just the opposite for partially coherent cos-Gaussian beams. When examined versus the source size, for all the four types of beams, the transmittance has a similar behavior, i.e., it becomes high at small source sizes, falling with increasing source size, and following a dip, it starts to rise, eventually approaching the plane wave limit of unity. The occurrence of the dip coincides with the smallest source size for cosh-Gaussian, with the largest for cos-Gaussian, and about the same source size for Gaussian and annular beams. In general, the average relative power transmittance of coherent beam is affected much more than the partially coherent beams against the variations in source properties. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V.

    Error 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, Yalcin
    Subcarrier 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.

    Performance Analysis of M-Ary Pulse Position Modulation in Strong Oceanic Turbulence
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2018) Baykal, Yahya; Ata, Yalcin; Gokce, Muhsin Caner
    In this paper, we consider an underwater wireless optical communication (UWOC) system which consists of an M-ary pulse position modulated (PPM) Gaussian optical beam at the transmitter and an avalanche photodiode (APD) at the receiver. In strong oceanic turbulence, we aimed at investigating the system performance in terms of bit error rate (BER) by the help of gamma-gamma channel model. For this purpose, the average power and the aperture averaged scintillation at the finite sized detector are derived by using the extended Huygens-Fresnel principle and the asymptotic Rytov theory, respectively. BER variations are examined versus the average APD gain, modulation order, bit rate as well as the oceanic turbulence parameters, i.e., the rate of dissipation of kinetic energy per unit mass of fluid, the rate of dissipation of mean-squared temperature and the ratio of temperature to salinity contributions to the refractive index spectrum.

    Signal-To Ratio Reduction Due To Oceanic Turbulence in Oceanic Wireless Optical Communication Links
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2018) Baykal, Yahya
    The effect of oceanic turbulence on the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at the receiver of an oceanic wireless optical communication (OWOC) link is studied. To quantify such effect, the metric employed is the reduction in the SNR when oceanic turbulence is present. SNR reduction due to oceanic turbulence is formulated by subtracting the 10 log (SNR) evaluated at the receiver in the presence of turbulence from the 10 log (SNR) evaluated at the receiver in the absence of turbulence. Classical SNR formula which is function of the received optical power, noise and optical detector parameters is utilized. As the average received power, our earlier result that uses a Gaussian optical source field and a finite Gaussian receiver aperture in atmospheric turbulence is adapted for oceanic turbulence and such found average received power is inserted in the SNR expression. OWOC links that use collimated Gaussian optical sources at the transmitter and PIN photodiode, avalanche photodiode (APD) at the receiver, are analyzed. Results that present the variations of the SNR reduction due to oceanic turbulence against the changes in the source, oceanic turbulence and the optical receiver parameters are reported.

    Higher Order Mode Laser Beam Intensity Fluctuations in Strong Oceanic Turbulence
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2017) Baykal, Yahya
    Intensity fluctuations of the higher order mode laser beams are evaluated when these beams propagate in a medium exhibiting strong oceanic turbulence. Out formulation involves the modified Rytov solution that extends the Rytov solution to cover strong turbulence as well, and our recently reported expression that relates the atmospheric turbulence structure constant to the oceanic turbulence parameters and oceanic wireless optical communication link parameters. The variations of the intensity fluctuations are reported against the changes of the ratio of temperature to salinity contributions to the refractive index spectrum, rate of dissipation of kinetic energy per unit mass of fluid, rate of dissipation of mean-squared temperature, viscosity and the source size of the higher order mode laser beam. Our results indicate that under any oceanic turbulence parameters, it is advantageous to employ higher order laser modes in reducing the scintillation noise in wireless optical communication links operating in a strongly turbulent ocean.

    Ber of Asymmetrical Optical Beams in Oceanic and Marine Atmospheric Media
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2017) Baykal, Yahya
    The 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.

    Scintillation Index of Higher Order Mode Laser Beams in Strong Turbulence
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2017) Baykal, Yahya
    The scintillation index of higher order laser modes is examined in strong atmospheric turbulence. In our formulation, modified Rytov theory is employed with the inclusion of existing modified turbulence spectrum which presents the atmospheric turbulence spectrum as a linear filter having refractive and diffractive spatial frequency cutoffs. Variations of the scintillation index in strong atmospheric turbulence are shown against the weak turbulence plane wave scintillation index for various higher order laser modes of different sizes. Use of higher order modes in optical wireless communication links operating in strongly turbulent atmosphere is found to be advantageous in reducing the scintillation noise.

    Aperture Averaging in Strong Oceanic Turbulence
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2018) Baykal, Yahya; Gokce, Muhsin Caner
    Receiver aperture averaging technique is employed in underwater wireless optical communication (UWOC) systems to mitigate the effects of oceanic turbulence, thus to improve the system performance. The irradiance flux variance is a measure of the intensity fluctuations on a lens of the receiver aperture. Using the modified Rytov theory which uses the small-scale and large-scale spatial filters, and our previously presented expression that shows the atmospheric structure constant in terms of oceanic turbulence parameters, we evaluate the irradiance flux variance and the aperture averaging factor of a spherical wave in strong oceanic turbulence. Irradiance flux variance variations are examined versus the oceanic turbulence parameters and the receiver aperture diameter are examined in strong oceanic turbulence. Also, the effect of the receiver aperture diameter on the aperture averaging factor is presented in strong oceanic turbulence. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Aperture Averaging and Ber for Gaussian Beam in Underwater Oceanic Turbulence
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2018) Baykal, Yahya; Gokce, Muhsin Caner
    In an underwater wireless optical communication (UWOC) link, power fluctuations over finite-sized collecting lens are investigated for a horizontally propagating Gaussian beam wave. The power scintillation index, also known as the irradiance flux variance, for the received irradiance is evaluated in weak oceanic turbulence by using the Rytov method. This lets us further quantify the associated performance indicators, namely, the aperture averaging factor and the average bit-error rate (<BER>). The effects on the UWOC link performance of the oceanic turbulence parameters, i.e., the rate of dissipation of kinetic energy per unit mass of fluid, the rate of dissipation of mean-squared temperature, Kolmogorov microscale, the ratio of temperature to salinity contributions to the refractive index spectrum as well as system parameters, i.e., the receiver aperture diameter, Gaussian source size, laser wavelength and the link distance are investigated.

    Scintillation and Ber for Optimum Sinusoidal Gaussian Beams in Weak Non-Kolmogorov Turbulence
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2014) Gercekcioglu, Hamza; Baykal, Yahya
    The scintillation index and the average bit error rate (BER) are evaluated for the optimum sinusoidal Gaussian beams in weak non-Kolmogorov turbulence. The beam parameters that minimize the scintillation index and the average BER are stated and such beams are denoted as the optimum beams. For the collimated Gaussian, cos- and cosh-Gaussian beams, the scintillations increase as the power law exponent, a increases. Cos- and cosh-Gaussian beams that have larger absolute displacement parameters are found to exhibit larger scintillations especially at small a. Larger focal length and larger source size of cos-Gaussian beams induce reduction in the scintillations. When the propagation distance is large, the power law exponent is small and the source size is large, the scintillations of the optimum beams tend to decrease. Small power law exponent and large source size reduce the average BER. The optimum beam is shown to exhibit the smallest average BER for any a. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
