海洋湍流中自适应光学成像系统特征参量研究

随着水下光通信、传感和激光雷达等应用的发展,研究水下光学系统成像特性具有重要意义.本文研究了海洋湍流对自适应光学成像系统特征参量(如Strehl比、Greenwood时间常数和等晕角)的影响.推导出了海洋湍流中短曝光成像Strehl比的近似解析表达式,并证明:除了在近场D_G/r_0=1附近外(D_G和r_0分别为光学系统的光瞳直径和海洋湍流中可见参数),该近似公式均可保证足够的精度.此外,还得到了海洋湍流中Greenwood时间常数和等晕角的表达式.研究表明:随着海水盐度变化引起的海洋湍流逐渐占主导地位时,这三个特征参量值均减小;随着海水湍流动能耗散率的减小或海水湍流温度方差耗散率的增大,这三个特征参量值也均减小.本文研究结果对工作于水下湍流环境中自适应光学成像系统应用具有理论参考意义.

The effects of beam wander and spread, pointing errors, turbulence inner scale, turbulence outer scale and the spectral index of non-Kolmogorov turbulence on system's performance are included.

大气光学湍流估算模式及其相似性函数

地表热通量和水汽通量对全球气候变化和大气环流有着重要而广泛的影响,而Monin-Obukhov(M-O)相似性函数在计算近地层热通量和水汽通量的过程中扮演着重要的角色;同时M-O相似性函数是大气光学湍流估算模式中不可或缺的因子。通过对合肥西郊35 m铁塔上气象数据的分析,利用非线性最小二乘法拟合得到了一套全新的M-O相似性函数。将之与前人提出的相似性函数作对比,展现出了较好的一致性。同时,该函数大气光学湍流的估算模式中,估算值与实测值具有较好的吻合度。分析结果表明:在稳定条件和非常不稳定条件下,可以认为温度相似性函数等于湿度相似性函数,在弱不稳定条件下两者不再满足这种相似性。     

Capacity for non-Kolmogorov turbulent optical links with beam wander and pointing errors

The performance of optical wireless communication links depends strongly on the atmospheric conditions and the parameters of the link such as the propagation distance, the operation wavelength, jitter variance, attenuation coefficient and effective beam spot radius at the receiver. The analytical expression for the evaluation of the average capacity of optical wireless communication systems is derived, using the gamma-gamma distribution in the non-Kolmogorov atmosphere turbulence. The impact of atmospheric attenuation, beam wander and pointing errors on the average of the optical wireless communication link is investigated. It is shown that the capacity has a fluctuation curve, when power law α increases, and the power law α of minimum point in fluctuation curve is bigger as the non-Kolmogorov turbulence strength is stronger.

Influence of oceanic turbulence on propagation characteristics of Gaussian array beams

Based on the power spectrum of oceanic turbulence proposed by Nikishov, the influence of oceanic optical turbulence on propagation of Gaussian array beams is studied in detail by using five propagation characteristic parameters (i.e., mean-squared beam width, Rayleigh range, turbulence distance, power in the bucket and Strehl ratio). It is shown that the influence of oceanic optical turbulence on propagation of laser beams becomes stronger as τ (ratio of temperature to salinity contribution to the refractive index spectrum) and χ_T (rate of dissipation of mean-squared temperature) increase and ɛ (rate of dissipation of kinetic energy per unit mass of fluid) decreases, which is in agreement with the further analysis of oceanic turbulence shown in this paper. Furthermore, it is concluded that propagation of laser beams is more affected by oceanic optical turbulence in abyssal region than that in active region or oceanic surface.

Bit error rate analysis with real-time pointing errors correction in free space optical communication systems

Pointing errors caused by the atmospheric turbulence will degrade the performance of free space optical (FSO) communication systems, especially the bit error rate (BER). In this paper, we innovatively analyze the relationship between BER and pointing errors by the probability density functions (PDFs) and intensity displacement in focal plane under the On-Off Keying (OOK) modulation conditions. The closed-loop experimental system is set up in laboratory, where the fast steering mirror (FSM) is real-time controlled by embedded controller with the parallel processing technology and the atmospheric turbulence is simulated by a turbulence simulation box. The results of repeated experiments show that the method of pointing errors correction we proposed is efficient under the conditions of atmospheric turbulence. By utilizing our method, the BER can decrease from nearly 10⁻³ to nearly or even below 10⁻⁹, thus improving the performance of FSO communication systems significantly.

倾斜离轴高斯-谢尔模型光束在大气湍流中通过猫眼光学镜头反射光的光强特性

本文研究了大气湍流和探测光空间相干性对倾斜离轴激光束通过猫眼光学 镜头反射光光强特性的影响. 研究表明: 由于光阑效应以及光束倾斜或离轴, 反射光光强出现振荡和非对称分布现象. 大气湍流不会改变其非对称性, 但湍流中其光强不再振荡. 当猫眼光学镜头存在微弱正离焦δ_max情况下, 轴上光强可达到最大值. 猫眼光学镜头焦距越大, 所需δ_max越大. 但是, 大气湍流和探测光相干性好坏都不会改变所需δ_max值. 在大气湍流中传输距离足够远时, 反射光强会成为离轴类高斯分布. 随着传输距离的增大, 相干性越差的探测光的反射光束扩展可以更小, 这与部分相干光自由空间传输规律完全不同. 探测光相干性越好, 其反射光强受湍流的影响越大, 但差异不大. 本文所得结果对激光主动探测的应用具有意义. 关键词： 猫眼光学镜头 大气湍流 部分相干光 光强     

利用气象要素估算海洋大气近地层光学湍流

基于近地层相似理论以及极端层结下对该理论的修正,建立了海洋大气近地层光学湍流估算模型,并进行了数值分析。结果表明:当气温与海温相差较大时,温度起伏对光学湍流贡献最大;当气温与海温相差较小时,海面湿度越小,光学湍流越强;在较低湿度条件下,尤其在红外窗区,湿度扰动对光学湍流贡献起支配作用。当气温小于海温时,光学湍流先随海面风速增大而增强,后随风速增大而减弱;当气温大于海温时,光学湍流总体上是伴随海面风速增大而减弱。当气温小于海温或与海温接近时,与可见光和近红外波段相比,红外窗区光学湍流显著偏强;当气温远大于海温时,两波段光学湍流接近。在中性和近中性层结下,大气折射率结构参量C2n依赖于垂直高度的负幂指数接近-2/3,伴随海面大气层结稳定度或不稳定度增强,C2n依赖于垂直高度的负幂指数的绝对值分别逐渐减小或增大,并分别趋近于稳定极限下的0或不稳定极限下的-4/3。     

Method for estimating the impact of atmospheric turbulence on 3D angular deformations measurement

The optical method is one of the most accurate methods for the 3D angular deformations measurement. However, the measured results fluctuate around a mean value as a result of the impact of the atmospheric turbulence, and the relationship between the fluctuation and the atmospheric turbulence is unclear. In this paper, we propose an optical 3D angular deformations measurement method to analyze the optical wave propagation, and study the impact of the atmospheric turbulence. The fluctuations of the three deformation angles are calculated in different atmospheric turbulences. It is found that this optical method is not suitable for high accuracy measurement with the refractive-index structure parameter larger than 10⁻¹⁴ m^−2/3. When the widths of the crosshairs fringes are different, the impacts of the atmospheric turbulence are nearly the same. It is also found that the impact of the atmospheric turbulence can be reduced by increasing the gray value of the image.     

Optimized multiemitter beams for free-space optical communications through turbulent atmosphere

Using laser beams with less than perfect spatial coherence is an effective way of reducing scintillations in free-space optical communication links. We report a proof-of-principle experiment that quantifies this concept for a particular type of a partially coherent beam. In our scaled model of a free-space optical communication link, the beam is composed of several partially overlapping fundamental Gaussian beams that are mutually incoherent. The turbulent atmosphere is simulated by a random phase screen imprinted with Kolmogorov turbulence. Our experiments show that for both weak-to-intermediate and strong turbulence an optimum separation between the constituent beams exists such that the scintillation index of the optical signal at the detector is minimized. At the minimum, the scintillation reduction factor compared with the case of a single Gaussian beam is substantial, and it is found to grow with the number of constituent beams. For weak-to-intermediate turbulence, our experimental results are in reasonable agreement with calculations based on the Rytov approximation.

Performance enhancement of the power penalty in DWDM FSO communication using DPPM and OOK modulation

This paper presents the design and performance enhancement of the power penalty (PP) in a dense wavelength division multiplexing based on free space optical communication (FSOC) link using digital pulse position modulation (DPPM) and on–off keying (OOK) modulation. Such a system has a high performance, low cost, robust and power efficient, reliable, excessive flexibility, and higher data rate for access networks. The system performance is evaluated for an 8-channel wavelength-division-multiplexing for hybrid fiber FSOC system at 2.5 Gbps on widely accepted modulation schemes under various atmospheric turbulence (AT) regimes conditions. The performance of system is introduced in terms of PP, bit-error rate (BER), transmission distance and the average received optical power. The numerical results shows that the improvement of the PP using DPPM modulation of 0.2–3.0 dB for weak turbulence (WT) regimes for BER of 10^?6 and above 20, 25 dB for strong turbulence (ST) regimes are reported for BER of 10^?6 and 10^?9, as respectively (depending on the AT level). Further, we develop of improvement the PP caused by multiple-access interference about 6.686 dB which is predicted for target BER of 10^?9 in WT and 1 dB at target BER of 10^?6 in ST when the 8 user are active on the system of optical network units. Additionally, the optical power budget and margin losses of a system are calculated with different link length. The proposed approach of DPPM merges superiority with higher enhancement of PP about 0.8 dB for BER equal 10^?9 at FSO link length l_fso?=?2000 m compared to OOK at 1 dB for WT. An improvement of 2 dB is observed using the DPPM scheme over an OOK due to capability of detect pulses under background noise conditions with increased receiver sensitivity.
