Abstract

The manuscript presents detailed investigation of dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM)-oriented intersatellite optical wireless network. Total 48 channels are transmitted at 40 Gbps through open space over distance of 3 km. Apart from that, two modulators Mach Zehnder (MZM) and electro-absorption (EAM) are also deployed to estimate their performance. It is reported that DWDM network gives best output when maximum number of channels are accommodated around 1550 nm over distance of 2 km along with use of MZM. The bit error rate (BER), electrical power and eye diagram are used as parameters to analyze the output.
