| Abstract: | In this work, we study the performance of free space optical links with fading statistics modelled by the negative exponential distribution which describes channels under strong atmospheric turbulence conditions. We investigate the availability and the practical channel capacity's bounds, for links with fast and slow fading statistics, with line of sight architecture and intensity modulation with direct detection, through the evaluation of the outage probability and the outage and average capacity. Moreover, the average error probability, for on-off keying cases, is estimated. For these, very significant, magnitudes we extract closed form mathematical expressions for, practically valuation of link's performance. |
