Abstract
Free space optical (FSO) communication has been considered as an alternative to radio relay link line-of- sight (LOS) communication systems. The total attenuation is a combination of atmospheric attenuation in the atmosphere and geometric losses. The purpose of this paper is to study the geometric loss versus link range (in km), divergence angle, transmitter aperture diameter, and receiver aperture diameter. Total attenuation versus low visibility, average visibility, beam divergence, link range and rainfall rate were presented in this paper. Atmospheric attenuation (in dB) and scattering coefficient (in km -1 ) for several Yemeni main cities were explored. The study was concentrated on received power versus low and average visibilities and link range. Series of related simulation results were illustrated and discussed in this paper about the climate effects on performance of FSO communication systems in Yemen.
