Average Symbol Error Probability of General-Order Rectangular Quadrature Amplitude Modulation of Optical Wireless Communication Systems Over Atmospheric Turbulence Channels

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Using an accurate exponential bound for the Gaussian Q-function, we derive simple approximate closed-form expressions for the average symbol error probability (ASEP) of a free-space optical communication link using subcarrier intensity modulation (SIM) with general-order rectangular quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) over atmospheric turbulence channels. To model the atmospheric turbulence conditions, the log-normal and the gamma-gamma distribution are used. Extensive numerical and computer simulation results are presented in order to verify the accuracy of the proposed mathematical analysis.
