Performance Comparison of All-Optical Amplify-and-Forward Relaying FSO Communication Systems With OOK and DPSK Modulations

All-optical amplify-and-forward (OAF) relaying technique can amplify and filter the attenuated optical signal in optical domain, and thus is regarded as a simple way to extend the transmission distance of free-space optical (FSO) communication systems. At the relaying node, however, the incident bac...

description All-optical amplify-and-forward (OAF) relaying technique can amplify and filter the attenuated optical signal in optical domain, and thus is regarded as a simple way to extend the transmission distance of free-space optical (FSO) communication systems. At the relaying node, however, the incident background radiation and the amplified spontaneous emission noise of the deployed erbium-doped fiber amplifier will deteriorate the optical signal-to-noise, therefore causing the degradation of the system&#x0027;s bit error ratio (BER). In this paper, we perform simulations and experiments on FSO system with on-off keying (OOK) and differential phase-shift keying (DPSK) signals, focusing on the receiving sensitivity loss (RSL) of the OAF-assisted dual-hop system. Taking the BER level of <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">${10^{ - 7}}$</tex-math></inline-formula> as the reference, we find that the DPSK system suffers more than 8&#x00A0;dB RSL at the data rate of 5 Gb/s in simulation, while the OOK system gets less than 1&#x00A0;dB RSL at the same data rate. In the following experiments, the obtained results exhibit that RSL of DPSK system is nearly 10&#x00A0;dB, which of OOK system is less than 1.5&#x00A0;dB, shown similarly property to the simulations.
