Abstract
In this paper, taking the atmospheric turbulence into account, two low-complexity algorithms which can jointly compensate the frequency offset (FO) and phase noise (PN) caused by laser line-width and atmospheric turbulence were proposed in coherent free-space optical (FSO) communications with polarization division multiplexing QPSK (PDM-QPSK) scheme. By introducing phase-conjugated counterparts for training symbols or information symbols on one of two orthogonal polarization states, the FO and PN were sensed simultaneously for a transmitted block or for each symbol. Simulations and experiments were performed to evaluate the BER performance. The results both manifested significant bit-error-rate (BER) performance improvement.
