These topologies include a variety of optical components, including the axicon optical element, dual-secondary mirror, cone reflecting mirror, prism beam slier, and beam-splitter/beam combiner. In contrast, the secondary reflecting mirror causes an obscuration loss that must be compensated for by reducing the transmission power in an optical antenna design. In order to address this issue in space optical communication, the present research helps to develop an enhanced two diffractive optical elements (DOEs) technology however the data presented therein only shows that DOEs may boost transmission power efficiency, which is insufficient for system designers. Though On-Off Keying (OOK) is widely used in optical communication systems at the moment, the proposed research include DOEs into an OOK space uplink optical. The proposed research uses numerical simulation to explore how much a space uplink OOK system's bit error rate (BER) may be improved by using DOEs and adjusting fundamental parameters. The proposed BER model takes environmental factors like wind and detector noise into account. Using this theoretical model, the present work helps to investigate the effect of DOEs on the BER versus fundamental parameter characteristic curves in space uplink optical communication. Based on the findings, the DOEs structure has the potential to significantly enhance the BER performance of space uplink optical communication systems, especially at high obscuration ratios. When the obscuration ratio is 0.25, 0.167, or 0.125 and the transmission power is 1 W, for instance, the DOEs may improve the BER by a factor of two or one order of magnitude or less when the parameters are changed to the typical parameter values as specified. Results increase by a factor of six, three, and two orders of magnitude, respectively, when transmitting at 5 W. The results show that DOEs can significantly enhance the BER performance, especially at high obscuration ratios.

Stochastic LDPC decoding with 5G NR standard typically uses an iterative process, where messages exchanged among variable nodes (VN), check nodes multiple times. Stochastic LDPC decoders are often used in scenarios where the received signal is subject to varying levels of noise. They will provide improved error correction performance compared to traditional LDPC decoders, especially when dealing with channels with varying signal-to-noise ratios in 5G networks. Using the adaptive sparse quantization kernel least mean square algorithm (SLDPC-ASQ-KLMSA), this paper proposes an area-efficient architecture design for a stochastic LDPC decoder. The LDPC code (2048, 1723) is taken from the LOGBASE-T standard and used in this study. We examine the ASQ-KLMSA connection effects. Starting with the VN. It makes checking node functioning easier and reduces inter-connect complexity by capping extrinsic message length at 2 bits. Because of the simplified check node operation in ASQ-KLMSA, the decoder nodes must exchange messages with a greater degree of accuracy. The 3–3 input grouping sub-node of the degree-6 VN was changed with an adder-based 5–1 input grouping sub-node for the (2048, 1723) code in order to get more accurate results when the check-to-variable messages aren't strong enough. A suggested decoder architecture was determined using a stochastic LDPC decoder developed for TSMC 65 nm process (2048, 1723). Bite error rate, throughput, mean square error, latency, power, and area usage are some of the metrics used to evaluate the effectiveness of the SLDPC-ASQ-KLMSA algorithm that has been suggested and implemented in Python.
