    Bit error rate analysis of polarization shift keying based free space optical link over different weather conditions for inter unmanned aerial vehicles communications
    (Springer, 2021) Nallagonda, V.; Krishnan, P.
    The increasing availability of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is an exciting part of future emerging technology with advanced scientific and industrial interests. Free space optical (FSO) communications’ ability to offer very high data rates and the mobility of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) flying platforms make the delivery of Fifth-Generation (5G) wireless networking services appealing to FSO-UAV-based solutions. UAVs play a greater role in end-to-end delivery in next- generation wireless networking systems, serving as a base station, capacity enhancement, high data access, and other disaster management systems. To establish a link between unmanned aerial vehicles and ground stations, FSO can be applied. But, the different weather conditions liken rain, fog effects on the performance of the FSO link, contributing to the loss of the signal. In this paper, we proposed polarization shift keying (POLSK) modulated FSO link based UAV–UAV communication system for 6G beyond applications. We examine the effect of different weather conditions such as rain, fog on the bit error rate (BER) performance of the proposed system. Novel closed-form expressions for UAV–UAV based FSO propagation channel are derived, and BER performance is investigated under different weather conditions. Fog and rain are the main limiting factors mitigated in this paper by suitable mitigation techniques by increasing receiver field of view. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.

    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.
