Item Performance Analysis of Hybrid RF/FSO System Using BPSK-SIM and DPSK-SIM Over Gamma-Gamma Turbulence Channel With Pointing Errors for Smart City Applications(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018) Krishnan, P.The flourishing technology in wireless communication-free space optics (FSO) offers lots of merits over radio frequency (RF) links due to its license free bandwidth, ease of installation, high security features, and viable cost for short distance communication. It's high speed data rate and immunity against electromagnetic interference makes FSO the emerging technology of today. But, FSO is not always reliable especially during atmospheric conditions, such as fog, rain, mist, and snow. Hence, in account a new technique of hybrid FSO/RF, this includes advantages of both FSO and RF technologies. Through this paper intend to perform an extensive analysis of the error and misalignment effects encountered in line of sight communication. Pointing error and turbulence effects are the main drawback parameters for our analysis. For this purpose I have taken into consideration different modulation techniques-binary phase shift keying-subcarrier intensity modulation, differential phase shift keying-subcarrier intensity modulation communication system with reference to on-off keying (OOK) modulation. The novel expressions for outage probability and BER for both FSO and RF system are derived which uses Rician channel and 16QAM modulation scheme alongside hybrid FSO/RF system for weak, moderate, and strong turbulence regimes using Meijer-G function. © 2013 IEEE.Item Modelling of OFDM based RoFSO system for 5G applications over varying weather conditions: A case study(Elsevier GmbH, 2019) Pati, P.S.; Krishnan, P.From the perspective of spectrum scarcity, Radio-on-FSO (RoFSO)system is the best available option as it operates at unlicensed optical frequencies with the salient features of high bandwidth, cost effectiveness, lower transmit power, immunity to electromagnetic interference and easy deployment. To cater to the high data rate requirement of 5G applications in the near future, RoFSO systems will definitely be the best assisted alternative technology to the conventional wireless systems. However, the atmospheric conditions and non-linearity of the optical link have got a bearing on the efficiency of the system. In this work, we have presented an analytical model for transmitting phase shift keying (PSK)modulated orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)signals through free space optics (FSO)links. RL is the load resistor of the photo detector an Considering optical noises, nonlinear distortion resulting from laser diode and the atmospheric turbulence effect modelled by gamma-gamma distribution, we have derived a closed form closed-form bit error rate (BER)and outage probability expression for the aforementioned transmission system. Pointing error is also factored in for more accurate and appropriate analysis of the system performance. Better system performance was observed through use of aperture averaging technique. A case study has been undertaken for analyzing the FSO system performance with reference to BER for various seasons for the year 2016 over IIIT Bhubaneswar area by considering the wind speed and altitude at different floors of the building of the institute. © 2019 Elsevier GmbHItem Co-operative RF-UWOC link performance over hyperbolic tangent log-normal distribution channel with pointing errors(Elsevier B.V., 2020) Naik, P.N.; Udupi, S.A.; Krishnan, P.In this paper, we have proposed an analytic model and determined the outage probability and average bit error rate (BER) performance of a co-operative radio frequency ? underwater wireless optical communication (RF?UWOC) system. In recent years, UWOC has attracted attention as a useful enabler of underwater activities such as climate and ocean monitoring, surveillance, ocean exploration, underwater wireless optical sensor networks (UWOSN) and internet of underwater things (IoUT) because of its high speed, ease of deployability and wide bandwidth availability which is free of licensing fees. The proposed co-operative RF–UWOC system is designed to establish a connection between an underwater vehicle inside the ocean to a terrestrial ground station using decode?forward and amplify?forward relays. The RF link between the terrestrial ground station to relay is modeled as a Rayleigh distributed channel. The UWOC link between the relay to the underwater vehicle is modeled as being perturbed by the hyperbolic tangent log-normal (HTLN) distribution. To the best of our knowledge, it is for the first time that the perturbations due to weak oceanic turbulence have been modeled using HTLN distribution. This distribution is a member of the class of log-normal distributions derived from hyperbolic tangent distribution. Novel closed-form expressions have been derived for the outage probability and average BER for various modulation techniques that can be employed in this system. The analytical results are evaluated and validated with Monte-Carlo simulations in the presence and absence of pointing errors. The results show that the impact of pointing errors in the RF-UWOC system is to impose an additional SNR penalty of at-least 10 dB to obtain a BER of 10?6 when compared with the system operating without pointing errors. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.Item Asymptotic bit error rate analysis of convergent underwater wireless optical communication-free-space optical system over combined channel model for different turbulence and weather conditions with pointing errors(SPIE, 2020) Bhargava Kumar, B.K.; Krishnan, P.The differential phase-shift keying-based dual-hop underwater wireless optical communication-free-space optics (UWOC-FSO) convergent system is proposed for UOWSNs and Internet of Underwater Things (IoUT) applications. In the proposed system, the collected sensor data are transmitted to a decode-and-forward relay using underwater optical wireless communication links modeled as gamma-gamma distribution. The relay transmits the signal to the terrestrial destination using free-space optical link modeled as Malaga distribution. The end-to-end performance of the system (novel expression for asymptotic bit error rate) is derived and analyzed over combined channel model (including the effects of attenuation, turbulence, and pointing errors for both FSO and UWOC channels). The in-depth study is carried out for different weather conditions of FSO (attenuation - very clear, haze, rain, and fog; turbulence - weak and strong; and pointing error - weak and strong based on the g values 1, 2, and 6) and UWOC (attenuation - clear, coastal ocean, and turbid harbor; turbulence - weak, moderate, and strong; and pointing error - weak and strong based on the g values 1, 2, and 6), respectively. The proposed system is highly useful in coastal environments, where the climate is changing adequately as clear, rain, haze, and fog. © 2020 Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE).Item Performance enhancement using multiple input multiple output in dual-hop convergent underwater wireless optical communication-free-space optical communication system under strong turbulence with pointing errors(SPIE, 2021) Bhargava Kumar, B.K.; Naik, R.P.; Krishnan, P.For the first time, we propose a dual-hop multiple input multiple output (MIMO)-based convergent underwater wireless optical communication (UWOC)-free-space optical (FSO) system. The UWOC and FSO links are Gamma-Gamma (GG) distributed. Closed-form expression for the average bit error rate (ABER) is derived for the proposed MIMO-based dual-hop UWOC-FSO convergent system using the GG cumulative distribution function. The end-to-end system performance analysis is carried out by considering the turbulence, attenuation, and pointing error effects for UWOC and FSO links. For the UWOC link, different oceanic conditions, such as the clear ocean, coastal ocean, and turbid harbor, are considered. Various atmospheric effects, such as clear air, fog, rain, drizzle, and haze, are considered for the FSO link. The analytical results of the proposed MIMO-based convergent system are compared with single-input single-output (SISO) system. As a result, it is observed that the proposed MIMO 2 × 3 scheme offers an improvement of 35 dB in the average signal-to-noise ratio compared with the SISO system at ABER of 10-5 in the case of weak pointing error. © 2021 Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE).Item Bit error rate analysis of ground-to-high altitude platform free-space optical communications using coded polarization shift keying in various weather conditions(Springer, 2022) Nallagonda, V.; Krishnan, P.High altitude platforms (HAPs) aided free-space optical (FSO) communication, a future emerging technology for next-generation communication systems. HAP aided FSO communication systems, contributing significantly to data hunger applications. Weather conditions, angle of arrival fluctuations, blockages, and pointing error loss due to the HAP’s hovering state are some of the limitations to establishing an efficient link. In this paper, we proposed for the first time a Ground-to-HAP FSO communication system based on polarization shift keying to improve performance under hovering fluctuations. We also improved the proposed system’s performance by employing BCH and repetition coding schemes. The proposed system’s average bit error rate performance is expressed in closed form, and the results are analysed under various weather conditions such as rain (light and heavy) and fog (light and moderate). The results for coded and uncoded cases are compared. The achieved coding gain is 28.5 dB. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.Item RoFSO system based on BCH and RS coded BPSK OFDM for 5G applications in smart cities(Springer, 2022) Kumar, A.; Krishnan, P.The radio over the free space optical (RoFSO) communication system has become a popular research topic in 5G communication in recent years. Atmospheric turbulence typically degrades the performance of the RoFSO system. Multiple input multiple output, aperture averaging, error-correcting codes, and robust modulation are standard mitigation techniques used to reduce the effects of atmospheric turbulence. In this paper, Reed Solomon (RS) and Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem (BCH) coded binary shift keying (BPSK) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) based RoFSO system is proposed for 5G applications. We introduced RS and BCH coding techniques for the first time in this proposed RoFSO system, and achieved an average bit error rate (ABER) of 10 - 6, at 40 dB, 17 dB, and 4 dB carrier to noise plus distortion ratio (CNDR) for the uncoded, RS coded, and BCH coded systems, respectively, under weak turbulence conditions. That is, when compared to the uncoded system, the proposed RS and BCH coded system provide transmit power gains of 13 dB and 34 dB, respectively. The ABER performance of the proposed coded RoFSO system is investigated and compared to an uncoded system under various turbulence, weather, and pointing error cases. In all turbulence regimes, weather conditions, and pointing error scenarios, the BCH coded system outperforms the RS coded and uncoded systems. The proposed RS and BCH coded system is energy efficient and may be useful in 5G implementation. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.Item Performance enhancement of FSO communication system using machine learning for 5G/6G and IoT applications(Elsevier GmbH, 2022) Kumar, L.J.S.; Krishnan, P.; Shreya, B.; Sudhakar, S.6G networks will provide extremely high capacity and will support a wide range of new applications in the future, but the existing frequency bands may not be sufficient. Furthermore, because traditional wireless communications are incapable of providing high-speed data rates, 6G enables superior coverage by integrating space/air/underwater networks with terrestrial networks. 5G-and-beyond (5 GB) and 6G networks have been mandated as a paradigm shift to take the enhanced broadband, massive access, and ultra-reliable and low latency services of 5G wireless networks to an even more advanced and intelligent level, to meet the ever-growing quantities of demanding services. In 5G and 6G wireless communication systems, artificial intelligence (AI), particularly machine learning (ML), has emerged as an essential component of fully intelligent network orchestration and management. 5 GB and 6G communication systems will also rely heavily on a tactile Internet of Things (IoT). The diverse nature of heterogeneous traffic and the established service quality parameters in 5 GB networks will present numerous challenges. Many other wireless technologies, including free space optics (FSO), look promising for meeting the demands of 5 GB systems. FSO has been identified as a promising technology for achieving higher data rates while consuming less power. However, attenuation due to weather, pointing errors, and turbulences limits its performance. Traditional Maximum likelihood decoding techniques require prior channel information to decode the signals. in this paper, first time we proposed a novel decoding technique for decoding on–off keying (OOK) modulated FSO signals using support vector machines (SVM). The model is tested under various atmospheric weather conditions such as fog, rain, and snow, as well as turbulence and pointing errors. Simulated numerical results demonstrate that the proposed SVM-based decoding schemes are capable of mitigating attenuation, pointing error, and turbulent channel impairments. © 2021 Elsevier GmbHItem Reconfigurable intelligent surface-assisted free-space optical communication system under the influence of signal blockage for smart-city applications(Optica Publishing Group (formerly OSA), 2022) Naik, R.P.; Krishnan, P.; G.D., G.D.G.Atmospheric turbulence and pointing errors represent substantial hurdles to free-space optical communications (FSOs), impeding their practical design. The reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) is an emerging technology that enables reflective radio transmission conditions for next-generation 5G/6G wireless frameworks by intelligently adjusting the beam in the desired direction using low-cost inactive reflecting elements. In this paper, we proposed an RIS-assisted FSO system for mitigating the effects of atmospheric turbulence, pointing errors, and communication system signal blockage. The probability density function and cumulative distribution functions of an FSO system composed of N-RIS elements are evaluated in a free-space environment that contains obstructions. We derived closed-form expressions for the proposed system's bit error rate (BER), outage probability, and channel capacity. The proposed system's performance is analyzed in terms of BER, outage probability, and channel capacity under various weather conditions, pointing errors, and signal blockage. The results are plotted as a function of number of RIS elements and average signal-to-noise ratio. The proposed system will be beneficial in smart-city applications since it will provide reliable connectivity in urban environments with a high population density and high-rise buildings. © 2022 Optica Publishing GroupItem All-Optical UAV-Based Triple-Hop FSO-FSO-VLC Cooperative System for High-Speed Broadband Internet Access in High-Speed Trains(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2023) Aarthi, A.; Bhargava Kumar, L.B.; Krishnan, P.; Natarajan, R.; Jayakody, D.N.K.In this paper, we proposed an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) based all optical triple hop mixed free space optical-free space optical-visible light communication (FSO-FSO-VLC) system for broadband internet access in high-speed train applications. The system consists of triple hops from gateway to the UAV, UAV to train and train to the end user. Two decode and forward relays are mounted on the UAV and train respectively to transmit the data between the gateway to the end-users. The first hop between gateway to UAV consist of FSO link which follows M-distribution. The second hop between the UAV to train consists of FSO link and is modelled using Gamma-Gamma distribution which takes into account both atmospheric turbulence and pointing errors due to position/orientation deviation. The third hop between the train and end user is connected using VLC link and it is mathematically modelled using Lambertian emission distribution. The relays map the incoming signal on the FSO links and send it down to the user inside the train via the VLC downlink. We derived the closed form expressions for average bit error rate and outage probability of the proposed system. This paper investigates the effects of atmospheric turbulence, field of view, beam divergence angle, displacement deviation variance, optical concentrator gain, number of access point, and modulation schemes on system performance. First time, we proposed all-optical system which offers high data rate and low transmission delay. © 2013 IEEE.
