Modeling of RF Waves in Free Space Optical Communication System Under Gamma-Gamma Turbulent Channel Effect

In this paper, an enhancement design of communication system using optical radio frequency (RF) waves in free space optical communication (FSO) system is presented. To our knowledge, it is the first time that the effect of Gamma-Gamma turbulent channel model on the performance of the proposed system is analyzed and simulated. To obtain an optical communication system with good performance and h...

Incremental adaptive networks implemented by free space optical (FSO) communication

The aim of this paper is to fully analyze the effects of free space optical (FSO) communication links on the estimation performance of the adaptive incremental networks. The FSO links in this paper are described with two turbulence models namely the Log-normal and Gamma-Gamma distributions. In order to investigate the impact of these models we produced the link coefficients using these distribu...

Atmospheric Channel Effects on Terrestrial Free Space Optical Communication Links

This paper illustrates the challenges imposed by the atmospheric channel on the design of a terrestrial laser communication link. The power loss due to scattering effect is described using the Kim/Kruse scattering model while the effect and the penalty imposed by atmospheric turbulence is highlighted by considering the bit error rate (BER) of an OnOff Keying modulated link in an optical Poisson...

Cooperative Communication in Free Space Optical Systems

We have investigated the performance improvement of cooperative free space optical (FSO) communication over single input single output (SISO) system in this paper. Bit error rate (BER) analysis for gammagamma channel model with additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) has been demonstrated for SISO and cooperative system as well where the performance improvement with different combining techniques ...
