Abstract
Recently, an exponentiated Weibull distribution model was presented for describing the effects of aperture averaging on scintillation of Gaussian beams propagating through atmospheric turbulence. The model uses three parameters that are derived from physical quantities so that in principle the model could be used to predict optical link performance. After reviewing this model, however, we find several inconsistencies that render it unusable for this purpose under any scintillation conditions.
