Frequency division modulation (FDM) and space-domain modulation (SDM) are two common modulation schemes in a 2-D pixelated system. Generally, FDM is preferred because FDM benefits from the capability of controlling the spectrum of transmitting signals so that the output signal could be shaped according to the characteristics of a particular optical channel. However, the computational complexity of FDM is relatively high and complex computation is needed at both the transmitter and the receiver. In this work, a fast orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (FOFDM) modulation which employs 2-D inverse discrete cosine transform (IDCT2) instead of 2-D inverse Fourier transform (IFFT2) is presented. As the image intensities must be real and positive, two schemes are hereby introduced to generate unipolar image intensities. The proposed FOFDM is simulated and discussed in terms of key characterisations including the signal spectrum, spectral efficiency, peak to average power ratio (PAPR), bit error ratio (BER) and computational complexity. Compared with traditional spatial orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) based on IFFT2, the proposed FOFDM has similar BER performance, twice the spatial efficiency for the same constellation size, lower computational complexity and a much simpler structure in the transmitter.</p>","PeriodicalId":13408,"journal":{"name":"Iet Optoelectronics","volume":"16 2","pages":"81-91"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2021-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ietresearch.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/ote2.12059","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41778090","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a result, adaptive channel coding is considered as one of the practical approaches to improve the FSO link performance.

Thanks to the new techniques of fabricating nanostructured films, this interest has been renewed. Although there have been many increases in published experimental research, no comprehensive theoretical formulation of the structure is reported in the literature. In this study, a general theory for transmissive modified cladding optical fibre sensors is presented. The model is formulated based on the electromagnetic fields and optical power in the core and cladding of a step-index fibre. The model considers various parameters, especially the radius of the optical fibre core, modified cladding refractive index, and light wavelength. The sensitivity, response, and optical transmission of the sensor are analysed as a function of the parameters. The analyses show that optical transmission reduces dramatically when the modified cladding refractive index approaches the refractive index of the core of the fibre and results in higher sensor response and sensitivity. Increasing the core radius of the fibre will result in lower sensor response with higher sensitivity. Both parameters will increase for a light with a larger wavelength. The results are in good agreement with experimental evidence.</p>","PeriodicalId":13408,"journal":{"name":"Iet Optoelectronics","volume":"16 2","pages":"63-71"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2021-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ietresearch.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/ote2.12057","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46396568","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed method can be implemented readily by inversely focussing the field radiated from a virtual spaced-dipole antenna array mounted at the focus of the 4pi configuration. By solving the inverse problem, the required illumination in the pupil plane for producing the 3D spot array can be found. It is demonstrated that the 3D diffraction-limited focal spot array owns the properties of controllable polarisation, scheduled number, tunable location, and adjustable interval.
