This analysis defines turbulence-driven design constraints for high-data-rate LEO-to-HAPS optical links exceeding 2000 km. It quantifies the impact of atmospheric scintillation and wavefront distortion across slant-path geometries using the HV 5/7 turbulence model. These metrics are vital for engineering adaptive optics and link architectures to maintain stable gigabit connectivity in the upper atmosphere.
