Description
Summary:Effects of source beam, link, and oceanic turbulence parameters on the scintillation index and bit error rate (BER) performance of cosine (cos) and cosine-hyperbolic (cosh) Gaussian light beams have been investigated in order to improve wireless optical communication link performance in oceanic turbulence. The Nikishov and Nikishov power spectrum of oceanic water and extended Huygens Fresnel principle were used in our evaluations; the results were obtained via MATLAB. The scintillation index and BER were examined versus oceanic turbulence parameters, which are the rate of dissipation of mean-square temperature, the ratio of temperature and salinity contributions to the refractive index spectrum, and the dissipation rate of kinetic energy per unit fluid mass of fluid. Further, the scintillation index and BER are investigated against the source size, propagation distance, and complex displacement parameters of cos- and cosh-Gaussian beams. This study aimed to select the suitable sinusoidal beam to be employed in order to increase the performance of underwater wireless optical communication systems operating in oceanic turbulence.
