    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).

    RIS Assisted Triple-Hop RF-FSO Convergent With UWOC System
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2022) Bhargava Kumar, L.B.; Naik, R.P.; Krishnan, P.; Raj, A.A.B.; Majumdar, A.K.; Chung, W.-Y.
    The convergence of wireless optical communication (WOC) and radio-frequency (RF) systems is a promising technology that overcomes the shortcomings of standalone communication systems. By incorporating reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) on top of these WOC and RF communication systems, it is possible to circumvent the connection challenges associated with standard line of sight (LOS) communication links. Wireless communication systems with RIS assistance are a promising and evolving technology that enables more efficient and reliable link performance over long distances. The performance of the triple-hop RIS-assisted RF-FSO convergent with the underwater wireless optical communication (UWOC) system is investigated in this article. We considered the fading channel Nakagami-m over the RIS-RF connection and the fading channel Gamma-Gamma (GG) over the RIS-FSO and UWOC links. Then, the average bit error rate (ABER) and outage probability are determined using closed-form expressions. The ABER and outage probability performances of the triple-hop communication system is analysed by varying parameters such as turbulence, misalignment fading, and the number of RIS elements. The obtained results demonstrate an improvement in performance for low turbulence, low pointing error, and an increasing number of RIS elements. Additionally, the data demonstrate the accuracy of the analytical results. © 2013 IEEE.

    Performance analysis of multi-hop FSO convergent with UWOC system for security and tracking in navy applications
    (Springer, 2022) Bhargava Kumar, B.K.; Naik, R.P.; Krishnan, P.
    The Navy is ubiquitous in every major geographic area of the world. It is estimated that 60% of global goods are transported by sea. The Navy plays a vital role in offering protection of the sea lanes and the trade transportation, preserves territorial ocean borders and the right to the resources contained in them, and facilitates the response to natural disasters and other disasters. In this paper, we proposed for the first time a multi-hop free-space optical (FSO)—underwater wireless optical communication (UWOC) converging system. It is useful for the secure transport and tracking of goods and missiles through cargo ships for the navy and marine applications. The end-to-end average bit error rate (ABER) and outage probability performance of multi-hop FSO transmission systems converged with UWOC is analysed. The outage and ABER expression of the proposed system was obtained and the results were plotted for different weather conditions, turbulence regimes, pointing error and number of FSO hop scenarios. A case study is done on the extent to which the speed and height of the ship, the wind speed and the links between the ships affect the end-to-end outage performance of the proposed triple hop FSO converging UWOC system. This study is performed in Surathkal, which is located 20 km north of Mangalore. We assumed in this case study that the ships are located near surathkal in the Arabian Sea (GPS coordinates: N 13∘0′38.0988′, E 74∘47′17.4876′), Karnataka, India. Computational complexity of proposed cumulative distribution functions (CDF) have been evaluated with the existing CDF in the literature. In addition to that the expected cost analysis of the proposed communication system provided. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.

    Performance analysis of underwater vertical wireless optical communication system in the presence of weak turbulence, pointing errors and attenuation losses
    (Springer, 2023) Savidhan Shetty, S.C.S.; Naik, R.P.; Shripathi Acharya, U.S.; Chung, W.-Y.
    In this paper, we have investigated the performance of underwater vertical wireless optical communication (UVWOC) link employing on–off key modulation in the presence of underwater turbulence, pointing errors and attenuation losses. The turbulence of the medium (assumed to be weak turbulence) has been modeled by employing the hyperbolic tangent log normal (HTLN) distribution. Temperature, pressure and salinity are parameters which can bring about variation of optical transmission characteristics with respect to depth of the ocean/sea. An in-depth study of optical transmission through vertical oceanic links requires the the underwater medium to be modeled as comprising of non-identical turbulent layers. Each of these independent and non-identical turbulence layers are modeled using the HTLN distribution function. The pointing error due to misalignment between source and detector is modeled using Rayleigh displacement pointing error. A novel closed-form expression to quantify the average bit error rate (BER) has been derived for single input single output (SISO) communication link. This expression has then been further generalized to make it applicable to the case of receive diversity schemes such as selection combining, majority logic combining and maximum ratio combining. The expression for the average BER associated with the UVWOC link for different pointing errors, different data rates and different types of ocean water has been determined. Novel closed-form expressions quantifying the outage probability and ergodic channel capacity have been derived for SISO and SC receive diversity schemes. The accuracy of all of the closed-form expressions derived in this paper have been validated using Monte-Carlo simulations. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.

    Performance Analysis of MIMO-EGC System for the Underwater Vertical Wireless Optical Communication Link
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2023) Savidhan Shetty, S.C.S.; Naik, R.P.; Shripathi Acharya, U.S.; Chung, W.-Y.
    In this paper, we have investigated the performance of an underwater vertical wireless optical communication (UVWOC) link employing multiple input-multiple output (MIMO) operating in conjunction with equal gain combing (EGC) techniques perturbed by weak and strong turbulence in the presence of pointing errors and attenuation losses. Vertical underwater turbulence, which varies from layer to layer due to temperature and salinity variation connected to depth, is modeled using hyperbolic tangent log-normal (HTLN) distribution in the case of weak underwater turbulence and gamma-gamma (GG) distribution in the case of strong underwater turbulence. Novel closed-form expressions quantifying the average bit error rate (BER) have been derived for the UVWOC MIMO EGC system for weak and strong turbulence regimes. The expression for the average BER associated with the UVWOC link for different values of pointing error, differing vertical layer depth, modulation types, and differing numbers of sources and detectors have been determined. In addition, closed-form expressions for the outage probability (OP) and ergodic channel capacity (ECC) have been derived for the UVWOC MIMO EGC system. The accuracy of all closed-form expressions derived in the paper has been verified using Monte Carlo simulations. © 2013 IEEE.
