Free-space communication links are severely affected by atmospheric turbulence, which causes degradation in the transmitted signal. One of the most common solutions to overcome this is to exploit diversity. In this approach, information is sent in parallel using two or more transmitters that are spatially separated, with each beam therefore experiencing different atmospheric turbulence, lowering the probability of a receive error. In this work we propose and experimentally demonstrate a generalization of diversity based on spatial modes of light, which we have termed $textit{modal diversity}$. We remove the need for a physical separation of the transmitters by exploiting the fact that spatial modes of light experience different perturbations, even when travelling along the same path. For this proof-of-principle we selected modes from the Hermite-Gaussian and Laguerre-Gaussian basis sets and demonstrate an improvement in Bit Error Rate by up to 54%. We outline that modal diversity enables physically compact and longer distance free space optical links without increasing the total transmit power.

In this paper, we propose an adaptive beam that adapts its divergence angle according to the receiver aperture diameter and the communication distance to improve the received power and ease the alignment between the communicating optical transceivers
in a free-space optical communications (FSOC) system for high-speed trains (HSTs). We compare the received power, signal-to-noise ratio, bit error rate, and the maximum communication distance of the proposed adaptive beam with a beam that uses a fixed divergence angle of 1 mrad. The proposed adaptive beam yields a higher received power with an increase of 33 dB in average over the fixed-divergence beam under varying visibility conditions and distance. Moreover, the proposed adaptive divergence angle extends the communication distance of a FSOC system for HSTs to about three times under different visibility conditions as compared to a fixed divergence beam. We also propose a new ground transceiver placement that places the ground transceivers of a FSOC system for HSTs on gantries placed above the train passage instead of placing them next to track. The proposed transceiver placement provides a received-power increase of 3.8 dB in average over the conventional placement of ground-station transceivers next to the track.
In this work, spatial diversity techniques in the area of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) diffusion-based molecular communications (DBMC) are investigated. For transmitter-side spatial coding, Alamouti-type coding and repetition MIMO coding are
proposed and analyzed. At the receiver-side, selection diversity, equal-gain combining, and maximum-ratio combining are studied as combining strategies. Throughout the numerical analysis, a symmetrical $2times 2$ MIMO-DBMC system is assumed. Furthermore, a trained artificial neural network is utilized to acquire the channel impulse responses. The numerical analysis demonstrates that it is possible to achieve a diversity gain in molecular communications. In addition, it is shown that for MIMO-DBMC systems repetition MIMO coding is superior to Alamouti-type coding.
We investigate the communication performance of a few-mode EDFA based all-optical relaying system for atmospheric channels in this paper. A dual-hop free space optical communication model based on the relay with two-mode EDFA is derived. The BER perf
ormance is numerically calculated. Compared with all-optical relaying system with single-mode EDFA, the power budget is increased by 4 dB, 7.5 dB and 11.5 dB at BER = 1E-4 under the refractive index structure constant Cn2 = 2E-14, 5E-14 and 1E-13 respectively when a few mode fiber supporting 4 modes is utilized as the receiving fiber at the destination. The optimal relay location is slightly backward from the middle of the link. The BER performance is the best when mode-dependent gain of FM-EDFA is zero.
Beam wander caused by atmospheric turbulence can significantly degrade the performance of horizontal free-space quantum communication links. Classical beam wander correction techniques cannot be applied due to the stronger requirements of transmittin
g single photons. One strategy to overcome this limitation consists in using a separate wavelength from that of the quantum signal to analyze the beam wander and use this information for its correction. For this strategy to work adequately, both wavelengths should be affected equally by atmospheric turbulence, i.e. no chromatic effects should be originated from beam wander. In this letter, a series of experiments are performed to prove that this is the case for {lambda} ~ 850 nm as the quantum signal and {lambda} ~ 1550 nm as the tracking signal of a quantum communication system.
Free-space optical (FSO) communications has the potential to revolutionize wireless communications due to its advantages of inherent security, high-directionality, high available bandwidth and small physical footprint. The effects of atmospheric turb
ulence currently limit the performance of FSO communications. In this letter, we demonstrate a system capable of indiscriminately suppressing the atmospheric phase noise encountered by independent optical signals spread over a range of 7.2 THz (encompassing the full optical C-Band), by actively phase stabilizing a primary optical signal at 193.1 THz (1552 nm). We show ~30 dB of indiscriminate phase stabilization over the full range, down to average phase noise at 10 Hz of -39.6 dBc/Hz when using an acousto-optic modulator (AOM) as a Doppler actuator, and -39.9 dBc/Hz when using a fiber-stretcher as group-delay actuator to provide the phase-stabilization systems feedback. We demonstrate that this suppression is limited by the noise of the independent optical signals, and that the expected achievable suppression is more than 40 dB greater, reaching around -90 dB/Hz at 10 Hz. We conclude that 40 Tbps ground-to-space FSO transmission would be made possible with the combination of our stabilization system and other demonstrated technologies.
