Questions about the formula derivation in Malaga Distribution option1

[Echo chen]

Dear sir:
I recently experienced the newly released optisystem 22.0 version, which contains a universal FSO channel module, which can choose Malaga distribution to simulate turbulence, and the formula derivation about option 1 puzzled me. The formula given in the technical background is inconsistent with the formula given in the original literature of Malaga distribution [1]. I would like to consult whether you can give the source of the formula in the technical background. The specific inconsistency is shown in the following figure:

SFO-MalagaDistribution

Hello,

Thanks for reaching out to us.

Please note that Option 2 of the Malaga model is the most commonly used in the field. However, the other model (option 1) is another scheme that we did make our numerical solution based on the general formula of multiplying Shadow Rician probability density function (pdf) times Gamma-Gamma pdf.
Attached is a couple of papers that can be used as a reference for this work.

I hope this helps?

Warm Regards,
Saurabh Bedi.
