Article Adaptive Optics Applied To the Scintillation Index in Tissues(Optica Publishing Group, 2025) Baykal, YahyaMitigation of the scintillation index of a collimated Gaussian beam, occurring in a turbulent tissue, is investigated by applying adaptive optics. Tilt and astigmatism types of adaptive optics corrections are applied, and the reduction in the tissue scintillations, referenced to no adaptive optics (No AO) scintillations, is reported for tilt only (T Only), astigmatism only (A Only), and total (T + A) adaptive optics correction. Reduction in the scintillations is analyzed against the tissue length, Gaussian laser beam source size, wavelength, receiver aperture diameter, and the tissue turbulence parameters, which are the strength coefficient of the refractive-index fluctuations, fractal dimension, characteristic length of heterogeneity, and small length-scale factor. Finally, the adaptive optics effect on the scintillations is reported for some specific tissue types of liver parenchyma (mouse), intestinal epithelium (mouse), and upper dermis (human).

Changes in the field correlations are evaluated when the degree of source coherence, diagonal length from the receiver point, transverse receiver coordinate, tissue type, tissue length, source size, characteristic length of heterogeneity, strength coefficient of the refractive-index fluctuations, fractal dimension, and the small length-scale factor of the turbulent tissue vary. Investigated turbulent tissue types are liver parenchyma (mouse), upper dermis (human), intestinal epithelium (mouse), and deep dermis (mouse). For all the examined tissue types, field correlations are found to increase as the degree of source coherence, fractal dimension, and small length-scale factor increase and as the diagonal length from the receiver point, transverse receiver coordinate, tissue length, characteristic length of heterogeneity, and strength coefficient of the refractive-index fluctuations decrease. For the coherent source, an increase in the source size will increase the field correlations; however, for the partially coherent source, this trend is reversed.

Adaptive optics filter functions are used to find how the tilt, focus, astigmatism, coma, and total correction will behave under high order mode excitation. Reduction of the oceanic scintillation under various oceanic turbulence and system parameters is examined under different high order modes. Also, the effects of the source size, wavelength, and link length on the total adaptive optics correction of Hermite-Gaussian modes in an oceanic medium are investigated for different modes.

To find the SNR advantage of the anisotropy in the oceanic turbulent medium, SNR in anisotropic oceanic turbulence is normalized by the SNR in isotropic oceanic turbulence. The dB values of this normalized SNR are examined versus 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, the rate of dissipation of kinetic energy per unit mass of fluid at various oceanic anisotropic factors, the avalanche multiplication factors, the radii of receiver aperture, link lengths, and detector responsivity values. It is found that as the oceanic turbulence becomes more anisotropic, at any link parameter, the SNR of the OWC link becomes advantageous over the isotropic counterpart.

BER variations against the changes in 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 are found at various data bit rates, average current gains of the avalanche photodiode (APD), and M values of the M-ary PPM. It is found that under any oceanic turbulence parameters, BER performance of the PPM OWC system becomes favorable at smaller data bit rates, M values, and at larger average current gains of APD.

The variations of the scintillation index versus the oceanic turbulence parameters are examined for different multimode laser structures. Oceanic turbulence parameters used are the rate of dissipation of kinetic energy per unit mass of fluid, the rate of dissipation of mean-squared temperature, the Kolmogorov inner scale, and the parameter w that defines the ratio of temperature to salinity contributions to the refractive index spectrum. The results in this paper can be used to improve performance in the design of oceanic optical communications links. (C) 2015 Optical Society of AmericaArticle Citation - WoS: 50Citation - Scopus: 55Expressing Oceanic Turbulence Parameters by Atmospheric Turbulence Structure Constant(Optical Soc Amer, 2016) Baykal, YahyaThe parameters composing oceanic turbulence are the wavelength, link length, rate of dissipation of kinetic energy per unit mass of fluid, rate of dissipation of mean-squared temperature, Kolmogorov microscale, and the ratio of temperature to salinity contributions to the refractive index spectrum. The required physical entities such as the average intensity and the scintillation index in the oceanic medium are formulated by using the power spectrum of oceanic turbulence, which is described by oceanic turbulence parameters. On the other hand, there exists a rich archive of formulations and results for the above-mentioned physical entities in atmospheric turbulence, where the parameters describing the turbulence are the wavelength, the link length, and the structure constant. In this paper, by equating the spherical wave scintillation index solutions in the oceanic and atmospheric turbulences, we have expressed the oceanic turbulence parameters by an equivalent structure constant used in turbulent atmosphere. Such equivalent structure constant will help ease reaching solutions of similar entities in an oceanic turbulent medium by employing the corresponding existing solutions, which are valid in an atmospheric turbulent medium.

Like other system design parameters, intensity fluctuations of laser light propagating in marine atmosphere, quantified by the scintillation index, also show different variations. The on-axis scintillations of higher-order laser beams are formulated and evaluated when such excitations are employed in a weakly turbulent marine atmospheric medium. Variations of the scintillation index with respect to the changes in the Gaussian beam size of the higher-order mode, link length, wavelength, and structure constant are reported. Our results can be used in the design of an optical wireless communication link design operating in marine atmospheres.

In this paper, utilizing this recently found structure constant and the fourth-order mutual coherence function of atmospheric turbulence, we present the fourth-order mutual coherence function to be used in oceanic turbulence evaluations. Thus, the found fourth-order mutual coherence function of oceanic turbulence is evaluated for the special case of a point source located at the transmitter origin and at a single receiver point. The variations of this special case of the fourth-order mutual coherence function of oceanic turbulence against the changes in the ratio of temperature to salinity contributions to the refractive index spectrum, the rate of dissipation of kinetic energy per unit mass of fluid, the rate of dissipation of the mean-squared temperature, the wavelength, and the Kolmogorov microscale at various link lengths are presented.

Anisotropic turbulence is modeled by non-Kolmogorov von Karman spectrum. The variations of the scintillation index are observed against the changes in the asymmetry factor of the Gaussian beam, power law exponent of non- Kolmogorov spectrum, anisotropic factors in the transverse direction, and the link length. It is found that for all the conditions, asymmetry in the optical beam is a disadvantage but the anisotropy in the atmosphere is an advantage for reducing the intensity fluctuations in an optical wireless communications link operating in the atmosphere.
