چکیده

The limitations imposed by Mie scattering and atmospheric-induced beam scintillations on a direct line-of-sight optical link were investigated at 632.8 nm. The experimental investigations were carried out in Kuwait during the summer season when the local climate is characterized by high daily temperatures and frequent dust storms. Beam attenuation and scintillation data coupled with climatological data indicated that an unacceptably high level of system outages would occur in local climatic conditions for atmospheric optical links longer than 3 km.

Investigation to Reliability of Optical Communication Links using Auto-Track Subsystems in Presence of Different Beam Divergences

In this paper, we investigate the effects of auto-tracking subsystem together with different beam divergences on SNR, BER and stability of FSO communication links. For this purpose we compute the values of power, SNR and BER on receiver, based on analytic formula of Gaussian beam on receiver plane. In this computation the atmospheric effects including absorption, scattering and turbulence are c...

Characterization of atmospheric turbulence effects over 149 km propagation path using multi-wavelength laser beacons

We describe preliminary results of a set of laser beam propagation experiments performed over a long (149 km) near-horizontal propagation path between Mauna Loa (Hawaii Island) and Haleakala (Island of Maui) mountains in February 2010. The distinctive feature of the experimental campaign referred to here as the Coherent Multi-Beam Atmospheric Transceiver (COMBAT) experiments is that the measure...
