Abstract
FSO is one of the most widespread, low-cost, wireless, optical communicational technologies with sufficiently high throughput, transmission reliability, and high-level security. Nevertheless, many fading effects act on the optical pulses used, during their propagation, causing performance degradation. In this work, group velocity dispersion and time jitter, modeled by the truncated normal distribution, are jointly investigated analytically and numerically. The availability of the studied model is expressed in terms of outage probability, while its reliability is given in terms of its average bit error rate, through the derived novel mathematical expressions. To the best of authors’ knowledge, this is the first time that the outage and the BER performance are estimated analytically, through specific approximations, taking into account the abovementioned physical effects. Furthermore, using the obtained mathematical forms, the corresponding numerical results are presented by assuming typical parameter values for realistic FSO links.
