Optical receiver performance evaluation

ثبت نشده
چکیده

An essential parameter in determining the system power budget in an optical transmission system is optical receiver sensitivity, defined as the minimum average optical power for a given bit-error rate (BER). When designing a good optical receiver, it is critical to understand the different parameters that will impair overall receiver sensitivity. This article provides an indepth analysis of complete receiver optical sensitivity and the potential power penalties related to the accumulation of random noise and intersymbol interference (ISI) in both amplitude and timing. The analysis is based on normal receiver sensitivity, assuming an ideal input signal with negligible impairment from factors like ISI, rise/fall time, jitter, and transmitter relative intensity noise (RIN).

New Gaussian Approximation for Performance Evaluation of Optical Receivers with Arbitrary Optical and Electrical Filters

A new Gaussian approximation (GA) which takes into account the influence of arbitrary optical and electrical filters is proposed for the performance evaluation of optically preamplified receivers. Using the new GA, the receiver sensitivity is evaluated and notable performance differences were observed for several Fabry-Perot optical filters.

Performance Improvement Techniques for Optical Wireless Link in Presence of Atmospheric Turbulence

Atmospheric turbulence can cause significant performance degradation in free space optical (FSO) communication system. Major effects on the beam such as beam wander and beam scintillation degrades the performance at the receiver. We investigate the impact of diversity technique and aperture averaging technique on the performance of FSO system. Performance evaluation is made in terms of average ...

Off-axis catadioptric fisheye wide field- of-view optical receiver for free space optical communications

We propose a wide field-of-view optical receiver design based on a fisheye lens and an off-axis catadioptric structure for free-space optical communications. The design utilizes a novel fisheye lens group to compress a wide field angle into a narrow field angle and produce the appropriately collimated light that can effectively be coupled into the following aperture of a catadioptric telescope....

Signal Optimization During Radio Links Between a Transmitter and a Receiver Located in Adjacent Material Media with Differing Optical Densities (TECHNICAL NOTE)

Signal optimization is affected during radio links between a transmitter and a receiver located in adjacent material media with differing optical densities. The optimization is carried out via the automated control theory method. The radio signal obtained after the optimization is coordinated with the two media's electrical characteristics simultaneously; and this enables low power and small an...
