In this respect, our earlier results on the scintillation indices obtained by the unified Rytov method are employed and the intensity is taken to be gamma-gamma distributed. For comparison purposes, < BER > for the log-normal intensity distribution is also evaluated. It is found that for the annular beams, the ones that are thinner, possessing smaller ratio of primary to secondary beam size, and smaller focal lengths will have smaller average BER in strong turbulence. For the flat-topped beams, the ones that are flatter and possessing large source sizes have smaller average BER in strong turbulence. Large average SNR substantially reduces the average BER in weak and moderate turbulence, whereas in strong turbulence, the average BER stays at the same value no matter what the average SNR is. Comparison of the log-normal and the gamma-gamma statistics for the intensity shows that the average BER will be higher for the log-normal case when the average SNR is small and the reverse relationship holds at large average SNR. For both the gamma-gamma and the log-normal intensity distributions, < BER > obtained for the annular and the, flat-topped beams in strong turbulence is advantageous over the Gaussian beam < BER > values.

In particular, we analyse the on-axis, point-like and aperture averaged power scintillation characteristics of this beam that cannot be undertaken easily by analytic means. Within the range of examined source and propagation parameters, our evaluations show that there will be less scintillation, with increasing hollowness at small source sizes and zero topological charge. At larger source sizes or topological charges, this is reversed and decreasing hollowness will reduce scintillation. More or less the same trend is observed for aperture averaging such that at small source sizes and zero topological charge, increased hollowness will result in lower scintillation. At larger source size and topological charges, there will be a transition from the case of smaller values of hollowness giving rise to less scintillation at smaller aperture openings to the case of larger values of hollowness giving rise to less scintillation at larger aperture openings. In general nonzero topological charges will produces more scintillations, both in on-axis and aperture averaged cases. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V.

Lett. 37 (2012) 2970; Korotkova et al., J. Opt. Soc. Am. A 29 (2012) 2159]. In this paper, an explicit expression for the scintillation index of a multi-Gaussian Schell-model (MGSM) beam in weakly or extremely strong turbulent atmosphere is derived with the help of a tensor method. Applying the derived formulae, the scintillation properties of a MGSM beam and a GSM beam in weakly or extremely strong turbulent atmosphere are studied numerically and comparatively. Our results show that a MGSM beam has advantage over a GSM beam for reducing turbulence-induced scintillation, which will be useful for long-distance free-space optical communications.

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 low scintillations will occur when the exponent of the power spectrum is just above the numeric value of 3. Initially, the rises in scintillations will take place as the exponent becomes larger, but later the scintillation reductions will be experienced as the exponent grows further, eventually minimum scintillations will be seen when the exponent has reached the value of 4. This will be the case, for scintillation variations against propagation distance, source size, wavelength, inner and outer scales of turbulence. Furthermore, it is found that at the small source sizes, DH beams will offer less scintillation than FT beams, while at the large source sizes, the reverse will be applicable. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V.

In some of the existing results, the comparisons of system parameters found under the Kolmogorov and non-Kolmogorov turbulences were made by using the same structure constant for all the power law exponents of the non-Kolmogorov spectrum. In this paper, we evaluate the scintillations and the average Bit Error Rate (< BER >) for the flat-topped and the annular beams in non-Kolmogorov turbulence, this time using the equivalent structure constant which is now different for all the power law exponents. It is observed that the scintillations and the < BER > show completely different behaviour when evaluated with the equivalent structure constant as compared to evaluations with constant structure constant.

For each specific incidence of annular and flat-topped optical beam, a power law of non-Kolmogorov spectrum is found which is defined as the worst power law at which the average BER attains the maximum value. Using these values of the worst power laws, it is observed that thinner collimated annular, larger focal length annular and flatter small sized collimated flat-topped structures have a slight advantage in obtaining smaller average BER.

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.
