Abstract: The effects of beam wander corrected and pointing errors on the average capacity of a non-Kolmogorov turbulent atmosphere communication channel are studied. The gamma–gamma irradiance probability density function model has been considered to include the effects of non-Kolmogorov turbulence. An expression for the average capacity under beam wander corrected, pointing errors and the spectral index of refractive-index fluctuation. Simulation results for effects of circular detection aperture of radius, atmosphere turbulence strength and wavelength on average capacity are presented. Our results show that the average capacity has an oscillation in the case of short propagation distance, but in the case of long propagation distance, it has gradually reduced curves. And the turbulence strength has a strong influence on average capacity. In general, turbulence reduces the average capacity; it can reduce average capacity by increasing of the power law α. We can ignore the little effects of wavelength increases on the average capacity. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
