Title
Transmission Characteristics Evaluation Under Bad Weather Conditions in Optical Wireless Links with Different Optical Transmission Windows
Abstract
Optical wireless links offer gigabit per second data rates and low system complexity. For ground space and or terrestrial communication systems, these links suffer from atmospheric loss mainly due to fog, scintillation and precipitation. Optical Wireless link provides high bandwidth solution to the last mile access bottleneck. However, an appreciable availability of the link is always a concern. Wireless Optics links are highly weather dependent and fog is the major attenuating factor reducing the link availability. Optical wireless links offer gigabit per second data rates and low system complexity. For ground space and or terrestrial communication scenarios, these links suffer from atmospheric loss mainly due to fog, scintillation and precipitation signals and then to upgrade the transmission bit rate distance product for ultra long transmission links. This paper has presented the bad weather effects such as rain, fog, snow, and scattering losses on the transmission performance of wireless optical communication systems. It is taken into account the study of bit error rate, maximum signal to noise ratio, maximum transmission optical path lengths and maximum transmission bit rates under these bad operating conditions.
