Abstract
The fiber coupling efficiency of Gaussian-Schell model beams propagating through the oceanic turbulence of the Zernike tilt correction is studied. We derive the expression of the Zernike tilt corrected wave structure function. The numerical analysis reveals that a higher correction factor and spatial coherence of the laser beam increase the fiber coupling efficiency of the link. Our work shows that the increment of the fiber coupling efficiency caused by Zernike tilt correction under strong turbulence conditions is stronger than in the weak turbulence conditions, and the salinity fluctuation has a greater impact on it than temperature fluctuation does.
