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.

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.
Entangled Two-Photon Interference
(Elsevier Gmbh, 2019) Salmanogli, Ahmad
This article proposes a theoretical solution to one of the original problems of the double-slit experiment, which expresses that it is impossible to identify the photon's path without disturbing it We contend that using the entangled two-photon (signal and idler photons) and inserting a double-slit into the beam of signal (idler) photon, it is possible to distinguish the path of signal (idler) photon, just by the detection of the idler (signal) photon. Basically, the signal and idler photons are highly correlated to each other due to the momentum conservation. Indeed, the photon-photon correlation originates the nonlocal interference effect, so using this effect, lets us know about which path the photon goes through, with its conjugate photon's position detection rather than its detection.

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.

Effect 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
The 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).

Finite Element Method-Based Optimisation of Magnetic Coupler Design for Safe Operation of Hybrid Uavs
(Mdpi, 2023) Iskender, Ires; Navruz, Tugba Selcen; Arslan, Sami
The integration of compact concepts and advances in permanent-magnet technology improve the safety, usability, endurance, and simplicity of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) while also providing long-term operation without maintenance and larger air gap use. These developments have revealed the demand for the use of magnetic couplers to magnetically isolate aircraft engines and starter-generator shafts, allowing contactless torque transmission. This paper explores the design aspects of an active cylindrical-type magnetic coupler based on finite element analyses to achieve an optimum model for hybrid UAVs using a piston engine. The novel model is parameterised in Ansys Maxwell for optimetric solutions, including magnetostatics and transients. The criteria of material selection, coupler types, and topologies are discussed. The Torque-Speed bench is set up for dynamic and static tests. The highest torque density is obtained in the 10-pole configuration with an embrace of 0.98. In addition, the loss of synchronisation caused by the piston engine shaft locking and misalignment in the case of bearing problems is also examined. The magnetic coupler efficiency is above 94% at the maximum speed. The error margin of the numerical simulations is 8% for the Maxwell 2D and 4.5% for 3D. Correction coefficients of 1.2 for the Maxwell 2D and 1.1 for 3D are proposed.

Underwater Turbulence Effect on Optical Imaging
(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2022) Gokce, Muhsin Caner; Baykal, Yahya; Ata, Yalcin
Modulation transfer function (MTF) of oceanic turbulence plays an essential role in the design and quality of underwater image sensing systems capturing optical signals. MTF gives clues about the characteristics of turbulence which can help image reconstruction where the image resolution can be increased in this way. In the paper, under the conditions of weak turbulence and Gaussian beam propagation, we derive the modulation transfer function for short-exposure and long-exposure images based on the recently developed turbulence spectrum model: Oceanic turbulence optical power spectrum (OTOPS). With the aid of the OTOPS model, the effect of measurable turbulence parameters, namely average temperature, average salinity concentration, and temperature-salinity gradient ratios, as well as imaging system parameters, namely receiver aperture radius and wavelength of the laser source on the MTF are reported. Obtained results indicate that MTF rapidly decreases with increasing relative spatial frequency and turbulence strength. Turbulence becomes stronger with the increase in the average temperature, average salinity concentration, energy dissipation rate, temperature-salinity gradient ratio and with the decrease in the temperature dissipation rate, wavelength.

Squeezed State Generation Using Cryogenic Inp Hemt Nonlinearity
(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2023) Salmanogli, Ahmad
This study focuses on generating and manipulating squeezed states with two external oscillators coupled by an InP HEMT operating at cryogenic temperatures. First, the small-signal nonlinear model of the transistor at high frequency at 5 K is analyzed using quantum theory, and the related Lagrangian is theoretically derived. Subsequently, the total quantum Hamiltonian of the system is derived using Legendre transformation. The Hamiltonian of the system includes linear and nonlinear terms by which the effects on the time evolution of the states are studied. The main result shows that the squeezed state can be generated owing to the transistor's nonlinearity; more importantly, it can be manipulated by some specific terms introduced in the nonlinear Hamiltonian. In fact, the nonlinearity of the transistors induces some effects, such as capacitance, inductance, and second-order transconductance, by which the properties of the external oscillators are changed. These changes may lead to squeezing or manipulating the parameters related to squeezing in the oscillators. In addition, it is theoretically derived that the circuit can generate two-mode squeezing. Finally, second-order correlation (photon counting statistics) is studied, and the results demonstrate that the designed circuit exhibits antibunching, where the quadrature operator shows squeezing behavior.

Modification of a Plasmonic Nanoparticle Lifetime by Coupled Quantum Dots
(Amer Physical Soc, 2019) Salmanogli, Ahmad
In this study, the interaction between a plasmonic nanoparticle and coupled quantum dots is investigated to identify how the coupled particles can manipulate the plasmonic nanoparticle decay rate. This subject is very important, because most applications of the plasmonic system are restricted due to the nanoparticle decay rate and the related losses. Therefore, in the present work, we try to find out how and by which method the plasmonic nanoparticle decay rate can be manipulated. For this purpose, a plasmonic system containing a nanoparticle coupled to some small quantum dots is designed. The system dynamics of motions are analyzed with Heisenberg-Langevin equations. These equations are analyzed to study the effect of the plasmonic nanoparticles on the quantum dots' decay rate. In the following, as an interesting point, the quantum dot coupling influence on the nanoparticle's decay rate is theoretically analyzed in the transient and steady-state conditions. Additionally, a theoretical formula is derived by which one can explicitly find the dependency of the modified decay rate of the plasmonic nanoparticle on the number of the coupled quantum dots and the coupling strength. The simulation results show that it is possible to effectively control the nanoparticles' decay rate with regard to the application for which they are utilized.

Average Channel Capacity in Anisotropic Atmospheric Non-Kolmogorov Turbulent Medium
(Elsevier, 2019) Baykal, Yahya; Gokce, Muhsin Caner; Ata, Yalcin
The average channel capacity of a free space optical (FSO) communication system running an intensity modulated Gaussian beam is examined in anisotropic non-Kolmogorov atmospheric weak turbulence based on Rytov variance. 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.

Dynamical System Parameter Identification Using Deep Recurrent Cell Networks Which Gated Recurrent Unit and When
(Springer London Ltd, 2021) Akagunduz, Erdem; Cifdaloz, Oguzhan
In this paper, we investigate the parameter identification problem in dynamical systems through a deep learning approach. Focusing mainly on second-order, linear time-invariant dynamical systems, the topic of damping factor identification is studied. By utilizing a six-layer deep neural network with different recurrent cells, namely GRUs, LSTMs or BiLSTMs; and by feeding input/output sequence pairs captured from a dynamical system simulator, we search for an effective deep recurrent architecture in order to resolve the damping factor identification problem. Our study's results show that, although previously not utilized for this task in the literature, bidirectional gated recurrent cells (BiLSTMs) provide better parameter identification results when compared to unidirectional gated recurrent memory cells such as GRUs and LSTM. Thus, indicating that an input/output sequence pair of finite length, collected from a dynamical system and when observed anachronistically, may carry information in both time directions to predict a dynamical systems parameter.

Anisotropy Effect on Multi-Gaussian Beam Propagation in Turbulent Ocean
(Osa-optical Soc, 2018) Ata, Yalcin; Baykal, Yahya
Average transmittance of multi-Gaussian (flat-topped and annular) optical beams in an anisotropic turbulent ocean is examined analytically based on the extended Huygens-Fresnel principle. Transmittance variations depending on the link length, anisotropy factor, salinity and temperature contribution factor, source size, beam flatness order of flat-topped beam, Kolmogorov microscale length, rate of dissipation of turbulent kinetic energy, rate of dissipation of the mean squared temperature, and thickness of annular beam are examined. Results show that all these parameters have effects in various forms on the average transmittance in an anisotropic turbulent ocean. Hence, the performance of optical wireless communication systems can be improved by taking into account the variation of average transmittance versus the above parameters.

This is the first time that such proximity based optimization algorithms are implemented with an online dictionary learning method. Compression performances are compared with the one obtained by various sparse representation algorithms. As a result, proximity based optimization algorithms are listed among the three best ones in terms of compression performance values for all hyperspectral images. Additionally, the applicability of anomaly detection is tested on the reconstructed images.

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 (). 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.

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.

Hermite Gaussian Beam Scintillations in Weak Atmospheric Turbulence for Aerial Vehicle Laser Communications
(Elsevier, 2020) Sayan, Omer F.; Gercekcioglu, Hamza; Baykal, Yahya
Scintillation 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.
