Abstract

Abstract In this work, a free-space optical (FSO) communication system with the integration of mode division multiplexing and circular polarization shift keying (CpolSK) is proposed at 2 × 40 Gbps using LG00 and LG01 modes. Effects of diverse weather conditions such as clear weather, light rain, moderate rain, heavy rain, thin fog, thick fog, and heavy fog are studied on system performance. Further, a detailed comparison of CpolSK and polarization shift keying (PolSK) is performed at different FSO lengths in terms of log bit error rate. For implementation, analysis, and comparison, Optiwave Optisystem software is used and results show that CpolSK covers 100 km link distance and PolSK limits to 90 km only. Also, LG00 mode performs better than LG01 mode under all weather instabilities in the proposed system.
