“…AOA stochastically fluctuates with the changes in both temporal and spatial dimensions, and the degree of the AOA fluctuation is conventionally described by its variance. In recent years, theoretical models of the AOA variances for plane and spherical waves have been fully analyzed based on different turbulent power spectrums [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]. However, the research on the AOA variance for a Gaussian wave still needs further discussion.…”

This paper proposes an empirical model of the angle-of-arrival (AOA) variance for a Gaussian wave propagating through the weak non-Kolmogorov turbulence. The proposed model is approximately expressed as the linear weighted average between the AOA variances of the plane and spherical waves. The Monte Carlo method is applied to validate the proposed model. The numerical simulations indicate that, under the geometrical optics approximation, the AOA variance for a Gaussian wave is insensitive to the change of the diffraction parameter and can be closely approximated by a simple linear relationship in the refraction parameter. These two properties ensure the validity of the empirical model.
