Experimental Investigation of All-Optical Relay-Assisted 10 Gb/s FSO Link Over the Atmospheric Turbulence Channel

Abstract: This paper presents novel experimental results for a 10 Gb/s triple-hop relay-based all-optical free space optical (FSO) system by employing the amplify-and-forward relaying scheme. We provide a mathematical framework for the end–end signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and the bit-error rate (BER) performance and confirm that the derived analytical results reasonably match experimental results especially at relatively high SNR. The evaluated BER performances under different atmospheric turbulence regimes (modeled by the Gamma–Gamma distribution) show that the considered relay-assisted FSO system offers a significant performance improvement for weak-to-strong turbulence regimes, even without knowledge of the channel state information. More precisely, at a target BER of 10–5 , the proposed scheme offers ∼5 and ∼4 dB of SNR gains compared to the direct transmission for turbulence strengths $\ {\boldsymbol C}_{\boldsymbol n}^2$ of $3.8 \times {10^{ - 10}}\,{{\rm{m}}^{ - 2/3}}$ and $5.4\times 10^{-12}\,{{\rm{m}}^{ - 2/3}}$ , respectively.

24-26 GHz radio-over-fiber and free-space optics for fifth-generation systems.

Abstract: This Letter outlines radio-over-fiber combined with radio-over-free-space optics (RoFSO) and radio frequency free-space transmission, which is of particular relevance for fifth-generation networks. Here, the frequency band of 24–26 GHz is adopted to demonstrate a low-cost, compact, and high-energy-efficient solution based on the direct intensity modulation and direct detection scheme. For our proof-of-concept demonstration, we use 64 quadrature amplitude modulation with a 100 MHz bandwidth. We assess the link performance by exposing the RoFSO section to atmospheric turbulence conditions. Further, we show that the measured minimum error vector magnitude (EVM) is 4.7% and also verify that the proposed system with the free-space-optics link span of 100 m under strong turbulence can deliver an acceptable EVM of <9% with signal-to-noise ratio levels of 22 dB and 10 dB with and without turbulence, respectively.

M-QAM transmission over hybrid microwave photonic links at the K-band

Abstract: Two experimental configurations of a hybrid K-band (25 GHz) microwave photonic link (MPL) are investigated for seamless broadband wireless access networks. Experimental configurations consist of optical fiber, free-space optics (FSO) and radio frequency (RF) wireless channels. We analyze in detail the effects of channel impairments, namely fiber chromatic dispersion, atmospheric turbulence and multipath-induced fading on the transmission performance. In the first configuration, transmission of the 64-quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) signal with 5, 20 and 50 MHz bandwidths over 5 km standard single-mode fiber (SSMF), 2 m turbulent FSO and 3 m RF wireless channels is investigated. We show that, for QAM with a high bandwidth, the link performance is being affected more by atmospheric turbulence. In the second configuration, the 20 MHz 4/16/64-QAM signals over a 50 km SSMF and 40 m FSO/RF wireless links are successfully transmitted with the measured error vector magnitude (EVM) values of 12, 9 and 7.9%, respectively. It is shown that, for all transmitted microwave vector signals, the bit error rate is lower than the hard-decision forward-error-correction limit of 3.8×10−3. Moreover, an extended FSO link span of 500 m for 25 GHz hybrid MPL with 16-QAM at 10 Gb/s under the weak and strong turbulence regimes is evaluated via simulation analysis to mimic a practical outdoor system.

Seamless 25 GHz Transmission of LTE 4/16/64-QAM Signals Over Hybrid SMF/FSO and Wireless Link

Abstract: We propose and experimentally demonstrate a photonics-assisted converged radio-over-fiber (RoF), radio-over-free-space optics (RoFSO) and millimeter-wave (MMW) wireless transmission system for use in broadband wireless access (BWA) networks. The focus is at the emerging frequency band of 25 GHz, as recommended for fifth-generation networks. As a proof-of-concept demonstration, all-optical up-converted long-term evolution test models with 4-, 16- and 64-quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) are transmitted and evaluated over the proposed hybrid link under weak-to-strong atmospheric turbulence regimes. Link performance shows that, the error vector magnitudes are below the 3GPP standard for 4-, 16- and 64-QAM. We also show that, for all QAM signals under turbulence conditions, the bit error rate performance is below the forward error correction limit of ${10^{ - 3}}$ . Simulation analysis is also performed for the 10 Gb/s hybrid systems under turbulence for an extended FSO link up to 500 m to emulate a practical outdoor environment. Furthermore, we analytically estimate the attainable MMW wireless range for different rain rates in Prague, Czech Republic. The obtained experimental and simulation results confirm the feasibility and potential of the proposed hybrid system for next-generation last mile BWA networks.

Experimental verification of long-term evolution radio transmissions over dual-polarization combined fiber and free-space optics optical infrastructures.

Abstract: This paper describes the experimental verification of the utilization of long-term evolution radio over fiber (RoF) and radio over free space optics (RoFSO) systems using dual-polarization signals for cloud radio access network applications determining the specific utilization limits. A number of free space optics configurations are proposed and investigated under different atmospheric turbulence regimes in order to recommend the best setup configuration. We show that the performance of the proposed link, based on the combination of RoF and RoFSO for 64 QAM at 2.6 GHz, is more affected by the turbulence based on the measured difference error vector magnitude value of 5.5%. It is further demonstrated the proposed systems can offer higher noise immunity under particular scenarios with the signal-to-noise ratio reliability limit of 5 dB in the radio frequency domain for RoF and 19.3 dB in the optical domain for a combination of RoF and RoFSO links.

Roadmap to free space optics

Abstract: With the ever-increasing demand for data and the radio frequency spectrum becoming congested, free space optics (FSO) may find a niche for situations where fiber is too expensive or too difficult to install. FSO is a cross-disciplinary field that draws from radio and fiber communication, astronomy, and even quantum optics, and it has seen major advances over the last three decades. In this tutorial-style review, we provide a broad overview of many of the important topics required to design, develop, and research the next generation of FSO technology.

Enhancement of Terahertz Photoconductive Antennas and Photomixers Operation by Optical Nanoantennas

Abstract: Photoconductive antennas and photomixers are very promising sources of terahertz radiation that is widely used for spectroscopy, characterisation and imaging of biological objects, deep space studies, scanning of surfaces and detection of potentially hazardous substances. These antennas are compact and allow generation of both ultrabroadband pulse and tunable continuous wave terahertz signal at room temperatures, without a need of high-power optical sources. However, such antennas have relatively low energy conversion efficiency of femtosecond laser pulses or two close pump wavelengths (photomixer) into the pulsed and continuous terahertz radiation, correspondingly. Recently, an approach to solving this problem has been proposed, that involves known methods of nanophotonics applied to terahertz photoconductive antennas and photomixers. This approach comprises the use of optical nanoantennas for enhancing the efficiency of pump laser radiation absorption in the antenna gap, reducing the lifetime of photoexcited carriers, and improving antenna thermal efficiency. This Review is intended to systematise all the results obtained by researchers in this promising field of hybrid optical-to-terahertz photoconductive antennas and photomixers.
