Abstract

This paper reports the designing and numerical analysis of dense wavelength-division multiplexed (DWDM) transmission in an integrated passive optical network (PON)-free-space optics (FSO) system employing modified on–off keying (OOK)/digital-pulse position modulation schemes. The transmission performance has been analyzed under inter-channel crosstalk, noise errors, and weak and strong atmospheric turbulence effects for both modulation schemes. The DWDM system uses eight channels with a wavelength spacing of 0.8 nm, and each channel transmits a data rate of 2.5 Gbps for both the considered modulation formats. The results demonstrate that the DWDM channels are degraded due to inter-channel crosstalk, whereas the FSO transmission is limited as a result of atmospheric turbulence loss. The numerical results show that the proposed modulation scheme better than OOK modulation and exhibits 0.2–3 dB lower power penalty than OOK transmission.
