Simulation design for Ro-FSO communications system by digital modulation schemes

Abstract

The Ro-FSO system was designed using Opti System software (version 20), and its efficiency is evaluated in this study using two distinct digital modulators (PSK and DPSK). The proposed system consists of four transmission channels, each with its own wavelength (193.1, 193.2, 193.3, and 193.4 THz). The system was utilized to transmit data at three different rates (10, 20, and 40 Gbit/s) under four different levels of dust attenuation. Because of the large quantity of data retrieved, only results from two specific wavelengths (193.1 and 193.4 THz) were disclosed, as they exhibited the highest Q-factor and lowest bit error rate (BER). The study observed that the (DPSK) modulator surpassed the (PSK) modulator in multiple attenuation scenarios and had superior performance when transmitting data at speeds of 10 and 40 Gb/s. The wavelength of 193.4 THz performed optimally with both modulators in terms of wavelengths.
