    On the improved performance of luby transform codes over selective repeat ARQ in turbulent free space optical links
    (2013) Prakash, G.; Nayak, A.; Kulkarni, M.; Acharya, S.
    Free Space Optical (FSO) links are capable of offering high data transfer rates, secure and low interference links for connectivity as a last mile solution. However, atmospheric turbulence can degrade the performance for distances over 1 km. This degradation is in the form of packet loss and hence drop in the error performance. Error Control Coding (ECC) can be used to mitigate the effects of the atmospheric turbulence. In this paper we prove analytically and verify through simulations that Luby Transform(LT) Codes show an improved performance over Automatic Repeat Request(ARQ) schemes for FSO transmission. FSO systems are limited by the safety limits of the input power to the laser transmitter. A notable contribution in this paper is that we prove that this improvement with LT codes is within Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) limit for an FSO link for a BER performance of 10-5. © 2013 IEEE.

    Experimental Evaluation of Reliable Underwater Optical Communication in the Presence of Turbulence and Blockage
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2020) Prasad Naik, R.; Shripathi Acharya, U.; Suyan, N.K.
    In this paper, we have evaluated the performance of underwater wireless optical communication (UWOC) link in the presence of turbulence, air bubbles and blockage of 2.5-m-length channel. To mitigate the effects of turbulence and air bubbles, we have employed channel coding and receiver diversity combining techniques. Blocking causes the burst errors, and to mitigate the effect of blocking, we have employed interleaved channel-coded receiver diversity combining technique. Bit error rate (BER) performance of UWOC system evolved, and improvement in BER is achieved by employing channel codes, receiver diversity combining and interleaved channel codes. © 2020, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
