Abstract

In this work, the performance of wavelength division multiplexing based radio over free space optics (WDM-RoFSO) communication system is investigated utilizing OptiSystem 0.7 software. Four weather conditions are adopted in this paper, namely, clear, haze, rain and fog with attenuation losses of 0.2 dB/km, 2.3 dB/km, 4.3 dB/km and 8 dB/km, respectively In addition, a high radio frequency of 30 GHz with high bit rate of 160 Gbps is modulated and carried on optical signal for fifth generation (5G) applications. The dual channel technique is employed in order to enhance the performance parameters of proposed WDM-RoFSO communication system. The enhancement in the link range is about; 46.1%, 35%, 29.4% and 25.9% for clear, haze, rain and fog, respectively.
