We reproduce this temporal domain effect with time series generated by simulation considering the optical turbulence as a stochastic process with Gamma-Gamma probability distribution. Also, a phase screen was used in order to observe the impact that optical turbulence has over the optical information field&#8217;s spatial phase. With our simulations, it is possible to get the two most essential performance parameters required for the practical implementation of FSO links. We obtained the mean signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and the mean bit error rate (BER) of FSO links affected by optical turbulence with Gamma-Gamma distribution, where the results show that the mean SNR and mean BER are adequately modified according to the atmospheric turbulence levels, e.g., &#8776; 1.4 dB for    &#963;  R  2 = 0.33 and &#8776; 0.36 dB for    &#963;  R  2 = 1. Thus, the methodology presented in this paper may be readily used to design and implement real-world FSO links.]]></p></abstract>
