Abstract A novel analytical approach is presented to evaluate the bit error rate (BER) performance of a multi-wavelength optical code division multiple access (MW-OCDMA) free space optical (FSO) system using optical domain encoder and sequence inverse keying (SIK) balanced photodetector direct detection receiver taking the effect of pointing errors into considerations. The analysis is carried out to find the expression for the signal, multi-access interference (MAI) and crosstalk at the output of the SIK receiver in presence of pointing error. The BER performance results are evaluated for different values of standard deviation of pointing error, code length, number of simultaneous user and other system parameters. It is found that, MW-OCDMA system offers improved BER performance over single wavelength OCDMA FSO system. However, the performance of an MW-OCDMA system is degraded due to the effect of pointing error between the laser transmitter and optical receiver and the system suffers significant power penalty at a given BER of 10−9. The penalty is found to be 11.0 dB, 24.0 dB and 30 dB for jitter standard deviation of 1.3, 1.8 and 2.5 respectively when code length is 512 and number of user is 8 for number of wavelength 8. Further, the penalty can be greatly reduced by increasing the code length for a given number of user and number of wavelength.

AbstractAn analytical approach is presented for an optical code division multiple access (OCDMA) system over free space optical (FSO) channel considering the effect of pointing error between the transmitter and the receiver. Analysis is carried out with an optical sequence inverse keying (SIK) correlator receiver with intensity modulation and direct detection (IM/DD) to find the bit error rate (BER) with pointing error. The results are evaluated numerically in terms of signal-to-noise plus multi-access interference (MAI) ratio, BER and power penalty due to pointing error. It is noticed that the OCDMA FSO system is highly affected by pointing error with significant power penalty at a BER of 10

AbstractIn this paper, the performance of two-dimensional (2-D) wavelength-hopping/time-spreading (WH/TS) optical code division multiple access (OCDMA) system over free space optical (FSO) channel is analyzed in the presence of pointing error and different weather conditions. Prime code scheme is employed for both wavelength-hopping and time-spreading to address user code-matrix. The operating central wavelength of 1550 nm is considered to demonstrate the bit error rate (BER) performance of the proposed system as a function of various system parameters. The required optical power of the proposed system is determined to maintain a BER value of 10−9. The numerical evaluation interprets that the BER performance is highly dependent on transmission length, transmitted power, pointing error angle as well as the number of simultaneous user. It is also observed that the 2-D OCDMA system over free space needs minimum required optical power in case of rainy atmospheric condition, but it is maximum for foggy atmospheric condition.

Abstract In recent years, free space optical communication (FSO) has become a leader for its unique characteristics: large bandwidth, unlicensed spectrum, simple implementation, low power and high data rate. However, we use as a transmission medium for Spectral Amplitude Coding-Optical Code Division Multiple Access SAC OCDMA system. In this paper, we investigate the optimum received power of FSO communication system employing SAC OCDMA, by using different detection technique, such us Spectral Direct Detection SDD and Single Photodiode Detection (SPD) technique under optical Gaussian filter decoder schemes with Modified Double Weight code (MDW). In this work, the adverse effects of atmospheric channel limit the possibility of a large FSO communication, moderate turbulence and hazy weather conditions are considered. The results show that the performance of the proposed system with wavelength-division-multiplexing (WDM) multiplexer (MUX) based on Gaussian optical filter with SDP detection fares better than the system employing SDD technique.

An analytical approach is proposed to evaluate the bit error rate (BER) performance of a direct detection on-off keying (OOK) free space optical link over log-normal atmospheric turbulence-induced fading channels based on modified Alamouti code presented by Simon and Vilnrotter and maximal ratio combining (MRC) at the receiver. Simulations show that due to coding and diversity at the receiver, a significant improvement in the BER performance is obtained at a given BER. For diversity order of 2 in both transmitter and in receiver, the amount of BER improvement is 6.6dB at BER 10-5. Further increment of the receiver diversity from 2 to 4 gives additional 3dB improvement at the same BER. A drastic improvement of the BER performance is also possible for increasing number of receiver diversity which may increase hardware complexity. Simulation results are demonstrated to confirm the analytical results.Bangladesh J. Sci. Ind. Res.53(3), 205-210, 2018

Abstract In this paper, a hybrid-subcarrier-intensity-modulation (hybrid-SIM) technique for the performance improvement of free-space-optical (FSO) communication system has been proposed. Subsequently, for further error performance improvement, avalanche photodiode (APD) based receiver is used in the proposed system. The system performance is analyzed at various atmospheric turbulence levels over weak and strong turbulence channels. The bit error rate (BER) is theoretically derived using Gauss–Hermite approximation and Meijer-G function and it is simulated in the MATLAB environment. The simulation result shows that the BER performance of hybrid-SIM is better than BPSK-SIM technique irrespective of the channel types and also the significant BER performance improvement is observed by APD receiver.

AbstractAn analytical approach is developed in this paper to evaluate the bit error rate (BER) performance of an optical wireless (OW) communication system with multiplexing of the RF orthogonal frequency division (OFDM) over turbulent condition taking into account the effect of pointing error. The received signal is detected through direct detection receiver followed by RF synchronous demodulation including the effect of OW channel and different form of noises such as receiver thermal noise, background channel noise and photo detector shot noise. Analysis is developed for an OFDM system over the OW channel, taking into account the effect of pointing error between the transmitter and the receiver in turbulent condition and the analysis reveals that the OFDM OW system is less affected by pointing error with deference to the major power penalty at BER performance. For instance, power penalty at BER 10−9 is found to be 3 dB for 256 OFDM subcarriers with 9 millidegree displacement angle at a data rate of 10 Gbps under turbulent condition. It is found that the system is more influenced by the atmospheric turbulence at a higher data rate.

Due to recent advances in laser satellite communications technology, free-space optical (FSO) links are presented as an ideal alternative to the conventional radio frequency (RF) feeder links of the geostationary satellite for next generation very high throughput satellite (VHTS) systems. In this paper, we investigate the performance of multibeam VHTS systems that account for nonlinear high power amplifiers at the transparent fixed gain satellite transponder. Specifically, we consider the forward link of such systems, where the RF user link is assumed to follow the shadowed Rician model and the FSO feeder link is modeled by the Gamma-Gamma distribution in the presence of beam wander and pointing errors where it operates under either the intensity modulation with direct detection or the heterodyne detection. Moreover, zero-forcing precoder is employed to mitigate the effect of inter-beam interference caused by the aggressive frequency reuse in the user link. The performance of the system under study is evaluated in terms of the outage probability, the average bit-error rate (BER), and the ergodic capacity that are derived in exact closed-forms in terms of the bivariate Meijer's G function. Simple asymptotic results for the outage probability and the average BER are also obtained at high signal-to-noise ratio.
