Coherent optical binary polarisation shift keying heterodyne system in the free-space optical turbulence channel
In this paper, analytical and simulation results for the bit error rate (BER) performance and fading penalty of a coherent optical binary polarization shift keying (2PolSK) heterodyne system adopted for a free space optical (FSO) communication link modeled as the log-normal and the negative exponential atmospheric turbulence channels are presented. The conditional and unconditional BER expressions are derived, demonstrating the comprehensive similarity between the 2PolSK and the binary frequency shift keying (2FSK) schemes with regards to the system sensitivity. The power penalty due to the non-ideal polarization beam splitter (PBS) is also analyzed. The receiver sensitivity employing 2PolSK is compared with other modulation schemes in the presence of turbulence and the phase noise. The results show that 2PolSK offers improved signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) performance compared to the binary amplitude shift keying (2ASK)
Quantum Communication with Correlated Nonclassical States
Nonclassical correlations between the quadrature-phase amplitudes of two
spatially separated optical beams are exploited to realize a two-channel
quantum communication experiment with a high degree of immunity to
interception. For this scheme, either channel alone can have an arbitrarily
small signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for transmission of a coherent ``message''.
However, when the transmitted beams are combined properly upon authorized
detection, the encoded message can in principle be recovered with the original
SNR of the source. An experimental demonstration has achieved a 3.2 dB
improvement in SNR over that possible with correlated classical sources.
Extensions of the protocol to improve its security against eavesdropping are
discussed.Comment: 8 pages and 4 figures (Figure 1; Figures 2a, 2b; Figure 2
MIMO-UFMC Transceiver Schemes for Millimeter Wave Wireless Communications
The UFMC modulation is among the most considered solutions for the
realization of beyond-OFDM air interfaces for future wireless networks. This
paper focuses on the design and analysis of an UFMC transceiver equipped with
multiple antennas and operating at millimeter wave carrier frequencies. The
paper provides the full mathematical model of a MIMO-UFMC transceiver, taking
into account the presence of hybrid analog/digital beamformers at both ends of
the communication links. Then, several detection structures are proposed, both
for the case of single-packet isolated transmission, and for the case of
multiple-packet continuous transmission. In the latter situation, the paper
also considers the case in which no guard time among adjacent packets is
inserted, trading off an increased level of interference with higher values of
spectral efficiency. At the analysis stage, the several considered detection
structures and transmission schemes are compared in terms of bit-error-rate,
root-mean-square-error, and system throughput. The numerical results show that
the proposed transceiver algorithms are effective and that the linear MMSE data
detector is capable of well managing the increased interference brought by the
removal of guard times among consecutive packets, thus yielding throughput
gains of about 10 - 13 . The effect of phase noise at the receiver is also
numerically assessed, and it is shown that the recursive implementation of the
linear MMSE exhibits some degree of robustness against this disturbance
Performance of the coherent optical binary polarization-shift-keying heterodyne system in free space optical communications using a lognormal atmospheric turbulence model MIC-CPE 2010
