The improvement of fiber-detection method to enhance the output of amplify-received relaying on FSO communications [PDF]
International Journal of Electronics and Telecommunications, 2023 The performance of free-space optical (FSO) communications that using an optical amplifier (OA) in the scheme of an amplify-received (AR)-relaying has a major drawback in the detection of input signal quality under the effects of turbulence.

Observations and modeling of scintillation in the vicinity of a polar cap patch
Journal of Space Weather and Space Climate, 2022 Small-scale ionospheric plasma structures can cause scintillation in radio signals passing through the ionosphere. The relationship between the scintillated signal and how plasma structuring develops is complex.

Scintillation Increase Induced by Focusing (Invited)
Photonics, 2023 We show that the focusing of a random electromagnetic beam by a lens gives rise to a scintillation index at the geometrical focus that generally differs from that of the incident beam.

On the Relationship between Low Latitude Scintillation Onset and Sunset Terminator over Africa
Remote Sensing, 2021 The solar terminator is a moving boundary between day-side and night-side regions on the Earth, which is a substantial source of perturbations in the ionosphere. In the vicinity of the solar terminator, essential parameters like S4 index measurements are
