Abstract
In this paper, we report the modeling and simulative investigation of a free space optics (FSO) transmission system using non-return to zero/differential quadrature phase shift keying/polarization shift keying 3-D orthogonal modulation scheme in which three independent 40 Gb/s data streams are transmitted simultaneously using different signal parameters over the same channel to improve the spectral efficiency of the link. The proposed system demonstrates a successful transmission of 120 Gb/s information over an FSO link range of 25 km with an acceptable bit-error rate (\(\sim 10^{ - 9}\)) under clear weather conditions. The performance of the proposed link is also analyzed under the effect of atmospheric turbulence. Further, we compare the performance of the proposed system with previously reported works in the literature and the results demonstrate that the proposed 3-D orthogonal modulation scheme based FSO transmission system performs better in terms of spectral efficiency, information capacity and maximum achievable link distance.
