AbstractThe evolving 5G technology is currently facing some huge challenges such as cost, bandwidth, network flexibility, deployment and capacity. Free space optics (FSO) is an emerging technology and viable approach to address the challenges of upcoming networks. This paper presents the performance comparison of advance variants of Return to zero (RZ) and Non-return to zero (NRZ) modulation formats in FSO communication. Detailed analysis of FSO link is carried out under various weather conditions by means of numerical simulations in which different data rates and distances are tested to evaluate the performance. The effects of different weather conditions over the performance, efficiency and availability of FSO link are analyzed on the basis of quality factor (Q-factor) of received signal. The work is performed on the licensed version of Optisystem v14.0.

Research Analysis

AbstractFree space optics (FSO) links provide an effectual and efficient way of transmission of data throughout free channels due to its higher bandwidth and inbuilt capability of security. In this research analysis, the FSO link is evaluated on the basis of Q value for different modulation formats and weather conditions. Gamma–Gamma and log-normal scintillation models have been analyzed for different index of refraction in terms of Q factor versus a range of a proposed FSO link. Attenuation increases during the occurrence of different fog conditions, and there might be complete link failure in the case of dense fog and for some of the cloud conditions.

Good Agreement

A hybrid fiber/wireless link based on a single visible LED and free of opto-electronic intermediate conversion stages has been demonstrated for indoor communications. This paper shows the main guidelines for proper coupling in fiber/air/detector interfaces. Experimental demonstration has validated the design results with very good agreement between geometrical optics simulation and received optical power measurements. Different signal bandwidths and modulation formats, i.e., QPSK, 16-QAM, and 64-QAM, have been transmitted over 1.5 m polymer optical fiber (POF) and 1.5 m free-space optics (FSO). Throughputs up to 294 Mb/s using a 64-QAM signal have been demonstrated using a commercial LED, which paves the way for massive deployment in industrial applications.

Pemantulan cahaya matahari oleh cermin atau dikenali sebagai heliograf adalah kaedah awal komunikasi optik wayarles (OWC). Sewajarnya, sistem komunikasi moden mendedahkan kadar data yang tinggi di samping kualiti perkhidmatan yang lebih baik berbanding kaedah terdahulu. Sistem komunikasi optic wayarles mempunyai banyak kebaikan dimana ia adalah penting untuk sistem daratan, sebagai contoh penggunaan Optik Ruang Bebas (FSO) di kawasan luar. Di dalam kertas kerja ini, gambaran dan pencirian prestasi sistem Optik Ruang Bebas seperti pelemahan, kadar bit kesalahan (BER), faktor Q dan jenis pengesan yang berguna untuk pengesanan dalam sistem FSO dibentangkan. Sistem telah direkabentuk dan disimulasi untuk perincian prestasi dengan mengambil kira kawasan Subang. Kata kunci: Pelemahan; kadar bit kesalahan; pengesan foto; faktor Q; sistem daratan The reflection of sunlight by mirrors or known as the heliograph is an early method of optical wireless communication (OWC). Naturally, modern communication system reveals much higher data rates with better quality of service (QoS) compared to those ancient methods. There are many advantages of OWC which are important for a terrestrial system for example the usage of an outdoor free space optics (FSO) system. In this paper, a description and system performance characterization of the FSO such as attenuation, bit error rate (BER), Q factor and the type of detectors that are highly useful for detection in FSO systems are presented.

AbstractFree Space Optics (FSO) also known as Optical Wireless Communication (OWC) is a communication technology in which free space/air is used as the propagation medium and optical signals are used as the information carriers. One of the most crucial factors which degrade the performance of FSO link is the signal attenuation due to different atmospheric weather conditions such as haze, rain, storm, and fog. In this paper, an improved performance analysis of a 2.5 Gbps FSO link under rain conditions has been reported using Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) as a pre-amplifier. The results show that the maximum link distance for an FSO link under rain weather conditions with acceptable performance levels (Q$$\sim6$$and BER$$ \le {10^{- 9}})$$in the absence of EDFA pre-amplifier is 1,250 m which increases to 1,675 m with the use of EDFA pre-amplifier.

AbstractWavelength division multiplexing-based free space optics (WDM FSO) has emerged as a potential communication network candidate for last-mile access among other applications. FSO has received much attention in the last few years as a complement as well as an alternative to radio frequency-based communication due to spectrum crisis among other reasons. On the other hand, WDM has been considered as one of the next-generation optical access network candidates for bandwidth efficiency and increased data rates. A hybrid network of these two technologies thus has emerged as another research direction. In this article, we present the background, progress and the current state of WDM FSO.
