Article Citation - WoS: 32Citation - Scopus: 40Performance Analysis of M-Ary Pulse Position Modulation in Strong Oceanic Turbulence(Elsevier Science Bv, 2018) Baykal, Yahya; Ata, Yalcin; Gokce, Muhsin CanerIn 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.Article Citation - WoS: 21Citation - Scopus: 21Signal-To Ratio Reduction Due To Oceanic Turbulence in Oceanic Wireless Optical Communication Links(Elsevier Science Bv, 2018) Baykal, YahyaThe 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.Article Citation - WoS: 28Citation - Scopus: 29Higher Order Mode Laser Beam Intensity Fluctuations in Strong Oceanic Turbulence(Elsevier Science Bv, 2017) Baykal, YahyaIntensity 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.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 12Scintillation Index of Higher Order Mode Laser Beams in Strong Turbulence(Elsevier Science Bv, 2017) Baykal, YahyaThe 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.Article Citation - WoS: 71Citation - Scopus: 82Aperture Averaging and Ber for Gaussian Beam in Underwater Oceanic Turbulence(Elsevier Science Bv, 2018) Baykal, Yahya; Gokce, Muhsin CanerIn 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.

In the evaluation, modified Rytov solution and our recent formulation that expresses the oceanic turbulence parameters by the atmospheric turbulence structure constant, are employed. Variations of the scintillation index in strong oceanic turbulence are examined versus the oceanic turbulence parameters such as the rate of dissipation of kinetic energy per unit mass of fluid, the rate of dissipation of mean-squared temperature, viscosity, wavelength, the link length, and the ratio of temperature to salinity contributions to the refractive index spectrum.

Our recently published equivalent structure constant formulation is employed in our numerical evaluations. At the fixed propagation distance and wavelength, and at the corresponding equivalent structure constant, as the power law exponent of the non-Kolmogorov spectrum increases, the on-axis transmittance is found to decrease. At the same power law exponent of the non-Kolmogorov spectrum, the off-axis transmittance is obtained to be smaller than the on-axis transmittance. Off-axis transmittance variation versus the power law exponent shows that similar to the on-axis case, increase in the power law exponent eventually causes the off-axis transmittance to decrease, however this decrease occurs at larger power law exponent for larger off-axis distance.

Scintillation index of coherent versions of such beams attain unity saturation value whereas the decrease in the degree of source coherence results in the decrease of the scintillations. At a fixed degree of partial coherence, thin ring sized annular beams possess smaller scintillations than thick ones. For partially coherent Flat-topped Gaussian beams, higher flatness yields smaller intensity fluctuations. In extremely strong turbulence, partially coherent annular and partially coherent flat-topped Gaussian beams have smaller scintillations when compared to partially coherent single Gaussian beam scintillations.

It is found-that x-y asymmetric cosh-Gaussian beam fulfills the requirements of such optimum beam. Our minimization procedure reveals that the optimum beam is achieved by continually focusing it at the chosen propagation length and by further adjusting displacements parameters to be propagation distance dependent. Scintillation index of thus constructed optimum beam is formulated and numerically evaluated., Our graphical comparisons entailing collimated and focused versions of cos-, cosh-Gaussian, annular-Gaussian and Gaussian beams show that the optimum beam yields the lowest scintillations provided that Propagation range is less than or equal to the focusing distance.

Plots are given for viewing the progress of selected generalized beam types along the propagation axis, containing a single thin lens, co-centric and misaligned in the x-direction. The received power failing onto a finite aperture surface is calculated for various misalignment situations. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
