Gamma-Gamma大气湍流下相干光通信分集接收技术研究

大气湍流引起的光强闪烁使得自由空间光通信(FSO)系统性能恶化,而分集接收技术可有效改善这一影响。为进一步分析分集接收技术对相干接收系统性能的影响,基于二进制相移键控(BPSK)调制和外差相干接收技术,建立了Gamma-Gamma大气湍流信道模型下自由空间光通信分集接收系统模型。在不同大气湍流强度和接收天线数情况下,分别采取最大比合并(MRC)、选择合并(SC)和等增益合并(EGC),分析了对应的系统误码率(BER)和通信中断概率(OP),并与相同接收口径下的传统单天线接收系统的性能进行了比较。结果表明:MRC、EGC分集接收对大气湍流下的相干通信系统性能有明显改善,而SC分集接收仅当平均信噪比低于某一阈值时对相干通信系统的性能有所优化。

Scintillation effect on intensity modulated laser communication systems—a laboratory demonstration

This paper shows the impact of atmospheric turbulence-induced fading on the symbol decision position in the on-off keying (OOK) and the binary phase shift keying (BPSK) subcarrier intensity modulated (SIM) laser communication link. Weak turbulence is simulated in the laboratory using a chamber equipped with heating elements and fans. We have shown that in atmospheric turbulence, it is advantageous to employ modulation schemes such as pulse time and subcarrier intensity modulations that do not directly impress data on the optical irradiance as is the case with the OOK. For the OOK-modulated laser communication system, atmospheric turbulence imposes complexity on the symbol decision subsystem and by extension places a limit on the achievable bit error rate (BER) performance.     

Performance analysis of FSO links under strong atmospheric turbulence conditions using various modulation schemes

Strong atmospheric turbulence is a major hindrance in wireless optical communication systems. In this paper, the performance of a wireless optical communication system is analyzed using different modulation formats such as, binary phase shift keying-subcarrier intensity modulation (BPSK-SIM), differential phase shift keying (DPSK), differential phase shift keying-subcarrier intensity modulation (DPSK-SIM), M-ary pulse position modulation (M-PPM) and polarization shift keying (PolSK). The atmospheric channel is modeled for strong atmospheric turbulences with combined effect of turbulence and pointing errors. Novel closed-form analytical expressions for average bit error rate (BER), channel capacity and outage probability for the various modulation techniques, viz. BPSK-SIM, DPSK, DPSK-SIM, PolSK and M-PPM are derived. The simulated results for BER, channel capacity and outage probability of various modulation techniques are plotted and analyzed.     

Ground-to-Satellite Optical Communication Link Performance with Spatial Diversity in Weak Atmospheric Turbulence

Abstract

In this article, performance improvement of a free-space optical communication link with spatial diversity is evaluated for coherent (sub-carrier BPSK and sub-carrier QPSK) and non-coherent (OOK and Q-PPM) modulation schemes in an atmospheric turbulence fading channel. Based on Kolmogorov's theory, the link performance characterized by the signal-to-noise ratio or bit error rate is evaluated for both modulation schemes. It is observed that there is performance improvement with the increase in the order of transmit diversity for all the modulation schemes. Sub-carrier BPSK modulation outperforms the other modulation schemes in terms of the minimum signal-to-noise ratio requirement for a given bit error rate. Also, the effect of correlation among different transmitting antenna beams on the link performance is analyzed.

Bit error rate analysis with real-time pointing errors correction in free space optical communication systems

Pointing errors caused by the atmospheric turbulence will degrade the performance of free space optical (FSO) communication systems, especially the bit error rate (BER). In this paper, we innovatively analyze the relationship between BER and pointing errors by the probability density functions (PDFs) and intensity displacement in focal plane under the On-Off Keying (OOK) modulation conditions. The closed-loop experimental system is set up in laboratory, where the fast steering mirror (FSM) is real-time controlled by embedded controller with the parallel processing technology and the atmospheric turbulence is simulated by a turbulence simulation box. The results of repeated experiments show that the method of pointing errors correction we proposed is efficient under the conditions of atmospheric turbulence. By utilizing our method, the BER can decrease from nearly 10⁻³ to nearly or even below 10⁻⁹, thus improving the performance of FSO communication systems significantly.     

BER analysis of BPSK-SIM-based SISO and MIMO FSO systems in strong turbulence with pointing errors

Free space optics (FSO) is one of the sprouting technologies in optical communication systems domain. It can be employed as an alternative for the conventional radio frequency (RF) links to work out the current limitations in communication systems. But, the major drawback in FSO communication is the effect of random environment conditions on its performance. In this paper, we analyze the bit error rate (BER) and outage performance of single-input single-output (SISO) and multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) FSO systems in strong atmospheric turbulence using binary phase shift keying subcarrier intensity modulation (BPSK-SIM) signaling technique. The closed-form expressions are derived and the results are realized in terms of 2D and 3D plots.     

大气激光通信中的偏振调制性能

为充分证明偏振移位键控可有效抑制大气湍流等因素的影响这一观点,对目前大气激光通信系统中广泛采用的几种强度调制和偏振移位键控技术进行详细的分析研究,从各调制方式的功率利用率、带宽需求、传输容量以及差错性能几个方面进行对比。研究结果表明,各调制方式各有千秋,不能一概而论。综合各方面性能考虑,偏振移位键控较其他几种强度调制方式更具优越性,其具有最大传输容量、最小的带宽需求和接收误码率。由此可见,偏振调制方式更适合应用于大气激光通信。     

Analysis of free space optical link in turbulent atmosphere

Free space optical (FSO) communication is an upgraded supplement to the existing wireless technologies. FSO technology provides vast modulation bandwidth, unlicensed spectrum, cost effective deployment, low power consumption and less mass requirement. Today, researchers are preliminary focused to use the free space communication systems for inter satellites links. In this paper, the performance analysis of FSO communication link in weak atmospheric turbulence has been analyzed for different atmospheric transmission windows using OOK modulation. The analysis has been done using bit error rate as the performance metric. The effect of attenuation on the link performance has been investigated by varying distance between transmitter and receiver for a given power and data rate. Further, BER performance analysis has been carried out for varying data rate and transmitted power. Also, the effect of attenuation on received optical power has been studied. The work has been performed in OptSim environment.     

A detailed analysis of cross-phase modulation effects on OOK and dpsk optical WDM transmission systems in the presence of GVD,SPM, and ASE noise

A performance analysis is carried out to evaluate the effect of cross-phase modulation (XPM) on a dispersion-managed 20 Gb/s optical wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) transmission system using either the on-off keying (OOK) or the different-phase-shifting keying (DPSK) modulation, in the presence of the group-velocity dispersion (GVD), self-phase modulation (SPM), and amplified spontaneous emission (ASE). It is found that to achieve a bit error rate (BER) of 10⁻⁹ at a distance of 160 km, a 1.0 dB XPM power penalty is incurred for input channel power of 3 dBm in the OOK transmission and 7 dBm in the DPSK transmission. The power penalty increases with input channel powers and is inversely proportional and exhibits oscillations with respect to the channel separation. The oscillation is evenly spaced for the DPSK but not for the OOK and suggests the presence of optimum separation values. The XPM penalty decreases when a high dispersion fiber is used and increases linearly with increasing dispersion slope. Small residual dispersion can reduce the penalty of nonlinear effects.
