A new algorithm to locate the zero fields in antenna radiation pattern measurements
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2013) Sener, G.; Şener, Göker; 17740; Elektrik-Elektronik Mühendisliği
This article describes a new method to determine the directions of the zero fields in antenna radiation measurements. Zero-field detection is important when there are null constraints in antenna analysis or synthesis. To identify the directions of the zero fields, the general practice is to measure the propagating field in a number of small incremental angles in 2D space. For an antenna with narrow beam characteristics, even more sampling is necessary for accuracy. As a result, the time efficiency is decreased. In order to speed up the process, an optimization algorithm may be employed such that the measurements may converge to the zero-field locations faster. However, the difficulty is that many optimization algorithms require the use of derivatives of the pattern function. The algorithm proposed in this paper is derivative free and utilizes only the amplitude data, hence it is suitable and applicable to antenna measurements providing time efficiency.

Adaptive Optics Correction of Scintillation in Underwater Medium
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2020) Baykal, Yahya; 7812
Adaptive optics correction of the scintillation index of a Gaussian laser beam in underwater turbulence is studied. To introduce the adaptive optics correction, filter functions providing the piston, tilt and astigmatism effects are adapted to promote the spectrum of underwater turbulence. The reduction of the scintillation index due to the individual piston, tilt, astigmatism effects and their sum is examined versus 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, receiving aperture diameter, source size, link length and the wavelength. For any value of underwater turbulence parameter, the most effective adaptive optics corrections are found to be the piston, tilt and astigmatism, respectively.

Analysis of flat-topped Gaussian vortex beam scintillation properties in atmospheric turbulence
(Spie-soc Photo-optical instrumentation Engineers, 2019) Elmabruk, Kholoud; Eyyuboglu, Halil T.
We analyze the scintillation properties of a flat-topped Gaussian vortex beam propagating in a weakly turbulent atmosphere. We utilize a random phase screen model to perform this analysis. We evaluate the scintillation against the changes of topological charge, beam order, operating wavelength, receiver aperture side length, and source size parameters. The results show that using a flat-topped Gaussian vortex beam with a high topological charge causes a reduction in scintillation. Increasing the receiver aperture side length reduces scintillation level. As the source size increases, scintillation decreases. Our results also indicate that a flat-topped Gaussian vortex beam with high topological charges has less scintillation than the fundamental Gaussian beam. We believe that our findings will be useful in improving the performance of next-generation optical communication links and networks.

Angle-of-arrival fluctuations for general-type beams
(Spie-soc Photo-optical instrumentation Engineers, 2007) Eyyuboglu, Halil T.; Baykal, Yahya; 7688; 7812
Starting with the recently introduced phase correlation function of a general-type beam, the angle-of-arrival fluctuations are derived and evaluated in atmospheric turbulence for lowest-order Gaussian, cos-Gaussian, cosh-Gaussian, annular, and flat-topped beams. Our motivation is to examine the improvement in the performance of optical atmospheric links when such beams are employed. For these beams, the dependence of the angle-of-arrival fluctuations on the propagation length, displacement and focusing parameters, source size, inner and outer scales of turbulence, and receiver radius is investigated. It is found that in the majority of the cases examined, the angle- of- arrival fluctuations remain small and hence are not expected to adversely affect the operation of free-space atmospheric links. It is observed that amongst the beams considered, the cos-Gaussian beam offers the least amount of angle-of-arrival fluctuations, while the worst behavior is exhibited by the cosh-Gaussian beam. This situation is reversed, however, if focused beams are used. (C) 2007 Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers.

Annular beam scintillations in strong turbulence
(Optical Soc Amer, 2010) Gercekcioglu, Hamza; Baykal, Yahya; Nakiboglu, Cem; 7812
A scintillation index formulation for annular beams in strong turbulence is developed that is also valid in moderate and weak turbulence. In our derivation, a modified Rytov solution is employed to obtain the small-scale and large-scale scintillation indices of annular beams by utilizing the amplitude spatial filtering of the atmospheric spectrum. Our solution yields only the on-axis scintillation index for the annular beam and correctly reduces to the existing strong turbulence results for the Gaussian beam-thus plane and spherical wave scintillation indices-and also correctly yields the existing weak turbulence annular beam scintillations. Compared to collimated Gaussian beam, plane, and spherical wave scintillations, collimated annular beams seem to be advantageous in the weak regime but lose this advantage in strongly turbulent atmosphere. It is observed that the contribution of annular beam scintillations comes mainly from the small-scale effects. At a fixed primary beam size, the scintillations of thinner collimated annular beams compared to thicker collimated annular beams are smaller in moderate turbulence but larger in strong turbulence; however, thinner annular beams of finite focal length have a smaller scintillation index than the thicker annular beams in strong turbulence. Decrease in the focal length decreases the annular beam scintillations in strong turbulence. Examining constant area annular beams, smaller primary sized annular structures have larger scintillations in moderate but smaller scintillations in strong turbulence.

Aperture averaging in multiple-input single-output free-space optical systems
(Optical Soc Amer, 2016) Gokce, Muhsin Caner; Gökçe, Muhsin Caner; Baykal, Yahya; Uysal, Murat; 28643; 7812; 124615; Elektronik ve Haberleşme Mühendisliği
Multiple-input single-output (MISO) techniques are employed in free-space optical (FSO) links to mitigate the degrading effects of atmospheric turbulence. In this paper, for the MISO FSO system, a partially coherent radial array and a finite-sized receiver aperture are used at the transmitter and the receiver, respectively. Using the extended Huygens - Fresnel principle, we formulate the average power and the power correlation at the finite-sized slow detector in weak atmospheric turbulence. System performance indicators such as the power scintillation index and the aperture averaging factor are determined. Effects of the source size, ring radius, receiver aperture radius, link distance, and structure constant and the degree of source coherence are analyzed on the performance of the MISO FSO system. In the limiting cases, the numerical results are found to be the same when compared to the existing coherent and partially coherent Gaussian beam scintillation indices.

Aperture averaging in multiple-input single-output free-space optical systems
(Spie-soc Photo-optical instrumentation Engineers, 2015) Gokce, Muhsin C.; Gökçe, Muhsin Caner; Baykal, Yahya; Kamacioglu, Canan; Uysal, Murat; 28643; 7812; 124615; Elektronik ve Haberleşme Mühendisliği
Multiple-input single-output systems are employed in free-space optical links to mitigate the degrading effects of atmospheric turbulence. 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.

BER evaluations for multimode beams in underwater turbulence
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2016) Arpali, Serap Altay; Baykal, Yahya; Arpali, Caglar; 7812
In underwater optical communication links, bit error rate (BER) is an important performance criterion. For this purpose, the effects of oceanic turbulence on multimode laser beam incidences are studied and compared in terms of average BER (< BER >), which is related to the scintillation index. Based on the log-normal distribution, < BER > is analysed for underwater turbulence parameters, including the rate of dissipation of the mean squared temperature, the rate of dissipation of the turbulent kinetic energy, the parameter that determines the relative strength of temperature and salinity in driving index fluctuations, the Kolmogorov microscale length and other link parameters such as link length, wavelength and laser source size. It is shown that use of multimode improves the system performance of optical wireless communication systems operating in an underwater medium. For all the investigated multimode beams, decreasing link length, source size, the relative strength of temperature and salinity in driving the index fluctuations, the rate of dissipation of the mean squared temperature and Kolmogorov microscale length improve the < BER >. Moreover, lower < BER > values are obtained for the increasing wavelength of operation and the rate of dissipation of the turbulent kinetic energy in underwater turbulence.

Bit Error Rate of A Gaussian Beam Propagating Through Biological Tissue
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2020) Arpali, Serap Altay; Arpali, Caglar; Baykal, Yahya; 7812; 51304; 20809
The scintillation index and bit error rate (BER) of a Gaussian beam propagating in a weakly turbulent soft tissue are formulated and analysed numerically. The scintillation indices are plotted against half of the measured slope in the range of power-law scaling at different tissue parameters, such as the random variations in the refractive index of the tissue, outer scale of the tissue turbulence and the tissue length between the optical source and the detector. Moreover, BERs of Gaussian beams against the signal to noise ratio (SNR) are examined for different tissue parameters. Our graphical results show that the scintillation index and BER increase with larger outer scales, longer tissue lengths and larger random variations in the refractive index of the tissue. In comparison with the spherical wave propagation, it was found that Gaussian beam yields larger scintillation index and BER values.

Complex degree of coherence for partially coherent general beams in atmospheric turbulence
(Optical Soc Amer, 2007) Eyyuboglu, Halil T.; Baykal, Yahya; Cai, Yangjian; 7688; 7812
With the use of the general beam formulation, the modulus of the complex degree of coherence for partially coherent cosh-Gaussian, cos-Gaussian, Gaussian, annular and higher-order Gaussian optical beams is evaluated in atmospheric turbulence. For different propagation lengths in horizontal atmospheric links, the moduli of the complex degree of coherence at the source and receiver planes are examined when reference points are taken on the receiver axis and off-axis. In the on-axis case, it is observed that in propagation, the moduli of the complex degree of coherence are symmetrical and look like the intensity profile of the related coherent beam propagating in a turbulent atmosphere. For all the beams considered, the moduli of the complex degree of coherence profiles turn into Gaussian shapes beyond certain propagation lengths. In the off-axis case, the moduli of complex degree of coherence patterns become drifted at the earlier propagation lengths. Among the beams investigated, the cos-Gaussian beam is found to be almost independent of the changes in the source partial coherence parameter, and the annular beam seems to be affected the most against the variations of the source partial coherence parameter.

Correction of amplitude distortions for truncated Bessel beam and SER estimation for 4ASK
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2016) Eyyuboglu, Halil T.; 7688
We apply amplitude corrections to a truncated Bessel beam that has propagated through turbulent atmosphere modelled by random phase screens. These corrections are realized via transmitting an unmodulated beam in parallel to the one carrying the 4 amplitude shift keying (ASK) modulated message signal. On the receiver side, the amplitude corrections are obtained by dividing the intensity of the unmodulated beam by its free space equivalence. The corrections are then used to restore the amplitude distortions of the beam carrying the 4ASK modulated message signal and in the determination of decision boundaries for the received 4ASK symbols. The success of the system is visually inspected by comparing the received intensity profiles before and after the application of corrections. Furthermore, simulation analysis of symbol error rate (SER) is made, where the proposed set-up is found to be quite insensitive to wavelength difference between the unmodulated and modulated beams. On the other hand, the difference in the structure constant values of these two beams seems to have profound effect on system performance.

Cross beam scintillations in non-Kolmogorov medium
(Optical Soc Amer, 2014) Baykal, Yahya; 7812
For the collimated and focused cross beams, the on-axis scintillation index is evaluated when these beams propagate in weak non-Kolmogorov turbulence. In the limiting cases, our solution correctly reduces to the known Gaussian beam scintillations in Kolmogorov turbulence. For both the collimated and the focused cross beams, large power law exponent of the non-Kolmogorov turbulence is found to result in larger scintillations. Evaluating at a fixed power law exponent, the scintillation index of the collimated (focused) cross beam is higher (lower) than the collimated (focused) Gaussian beam scintillation index. When the asymmetry of the collimated (focused) cross beam increases, the scintillations increase (decrease). At a given cross beam configuration, change in the turbulence parameters varies the scintillations in the same manner for all power law exponent values. (C) 2014 Optical Society of America

Crossbeam intensity fluctuations in turbulence
(Spie-soc Photo-optical instrumentation Engineers, 2014) Baykal, Yahya; 7812
Intensity fluctuations of a crossbeam are evaluated in weak atmospheric turbulence. A crossbeam is defined as two asymmetrical Gaussian beams oriented perpendicular to each other, and one of these beams is wider along the x-axis whereas the other beam is wider along the y-axis. Our results indicate that in terms of the intensity fluctuations in weak turbulence, focused crossbeams offer favorable results when compared to the corresponding focused Gaussian beam intensity fluctuations. However, for collimated crossbeams, such a comparison is in favor of the collimated Gaussian beam. (C) 2014 Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE)

Density functional study of physical and chemical properties of nano size Boron Clusters: B-n (n=13-20)
(Chinese Physical Soc, 2009) Atis, Murat; Özdoğan, Cem; Ozdogan, Cem; Guvenc, Ziya B.; 28225; Ortak Dersler Bölümü
Boron is an element that has ability to build strong and highly directional bonds with boron itself. As a result, boron atoms form diverse structural motifs, ultimately can yield distinct nano structures, such as planar, quasi-planar, convex, cage, open-cage, tubular, spherical., ring, dome-like, shell, capsule, and so on, i.e., it can take almost any shape. Therefore, a deep understanding of the physical and chemical properties becomes important in boron cluster chemistry. Electronic and geometric structures, total and binding energies, harmonic frequencies, point symmetries, charge distributions, dipole moments, chemical bondings and the highest occupied molecular orbital-lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy gaps of neutral B-n (n=13-20) clusters have been investigated by, density functional theory (DFT), B3LYP with 6-311++G(d,p) basis set. Furthermore, the first and the second energy differences are used to obtain the most stable sizes. We have observed that almost all physical properties are size dependent, and double-ring tubular form of B-20 has the highest binding energy per atom. The icosahedral structure with an inside atom is found as impossible as a stable structure for the size thirteen. This structure transforms to an open-cage form. The structural transition from two-dimensional to three-dimensional is found at the size of 20 and consistent with the literature. The calculated charges by the Mulliken analysis show that there is a symmetry pattern with respect to the x-z and y-z planes for the charge distributions. The unusual planar stability of the boron clusters may be explained by the delocalized pi and sigma bonding characteristic together with the existence of the multicentered bonding. The results have been compared to available studies in the literature.

Design of microstrip bandpass filters based on stair-step patch resonator
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2019) Mezaal, Yaqeen Sabah; Al-Zayed, Ayman S.
In this research article, single pole bandpass filter using stair-step patch topology based on symmetrical and asymmetrical step impedance resonators has been designed for industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) band application. This filter has been modelled by Microwave Office simulator using RT/Duroid substrate constant of 10.8, the substrate thickness of 1.27 mm, loss tangent of 0.0023 and copper metallisation thickness of 0.035 mm. To enhance the stopband levels of filter response, two microstrip bandpass filters have been designed as two-pole configurations based on edge, and cross-coupled stair-step patch resonators using the same simulator tool and substrate specifications. The proposed filters have compact sizes of (0.311 x 0.233 for single pole filter, (0.578 x 0.24) for two-pole edge coupled filter and (0.566 x 0.234for two-pole cross-coupled filter designed at centre frequencies of 2.4, 2.46 and 2.41 GHz, respectively. These filters have interesting insertion loss and return loss magnitudes, narrow band frequency responses, second harmonic suppression and good stopband levels. Apart from ISM band applications, the proposed filters can be adopted in WLAN systems and Bluetooth applications for short-range devices. The experimental results for designed filters are of good consistency with the simulations.
