    Analysis of FSO Systems with SISO and MIMO Techniques
    (Springer New York LLC barbara.b.bertram@gsk.com, 2019) Krishnan, P.
    Free space optics (FSO) is a form of line of sight communication technology that uses the help of LASERS and photodetectors to give optical connections from one place to another without the use of an optical fiber. The major hindrance to an FSO communication system comes in the form of atmospheric turbulences characterized by haze, rain, snow, storms among others. In this paper, the bit error rate performance of single input single output and multiple input multiple output based FSO system is analyzed and compared. © 2019, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.

    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).

    Performance analysis of radio-over-free-space optical communication system with spatial diversity over combined channel model
    (Springer, 2022) Kumar, A.; Krishnan, P.
    Radio over Free Space Optical (RoFSO) communication is accepted as one of the promising technologies in communication systems that can fulfill the demands of high bandwidth and high data rate because it has an inherent quality of transmission capacity significantly more than what is provided by radio transmission technologies. It is a low power, high data rate, unlicensed spectrum, and large bandwidth wireless technology. Nevertheless, the full potential of the RoFSO communication system can be utilized only by overcoming the adverse effects of the atmospheric channel, which are scattering, absorption, and turbulence. Pointing error is also another factor responsible for the deterioration of the performance of the RoFSO system. In this paper, spatial diversity at the transmitting and receiving ends is used to improve the performance of the RoFSO system in various turbulence and weather conditions. The Malaga distribution has been used to model atmospheric turbulence. For single input single output (SISO), single input Multiple output (SIMO), multiple input single output (MISO), multiple input multiple output (MIMO) configurations, closed form expressions for average bit error rate (BER) have been estimated. To improve the performance of the proposed system, the two combining techniques, Optimal Combining and Equal Gain Combining, are being considered. The results obtained are compared to various configurations such as SISO, SIMO, MISO, and MIMO cases. The result shows that MIMO offers better average BER performance compared with SISO, SIMO and MISO cases. The 4 × 4 MIMO case has an average BER of 10 - 9 at an average SNR of 25 dB, but the SISO case has an average BER of 10 - 1 at the same average SNR. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.
