A SEMINAR ON FREE SPACE OPTICAL COMMUNICATION By  T venkatesh
CONTENTS Introduction History How it works Advantages Challenges System design Transmission security Conclusion
Introduction Fibre less laser driven technology No licensing and frequency coordination required Operating wavelength range 1) 780-900 nm 2) 1500-1600nm Provides a line of sight link Fso links are full duplex Easy to install for last mile &campus
History of fso Greeks used sun light for messaging In late nineteenth century graham bell demonstrated it. Used for defence
Last mile options Definition of last mile Cable Fiber Licenced and unlicenced fixed wireless
Last mile solutions Copper based solution 1.Slower copper based solution eg. ISDN,DDS [ 56 kbps,128 kbps ] 2.Higher copper based solution eg.  T-1 circuit [24 channel] T-3 circuit [28 t-1] Security is based on the burying  the wires in the grounds Intrusion detection system standpoint  is used for undectable purpose
Wireless connection 1. Distribute data everyone ,security is judged by the wep 2. Licence req. To planning & coordination 3. Susceptible To Rain ,Link Length 4. PP microwave provide higher capacity Eg. LMDS Fiber optic based solution  1.Fiber optics are two type A) Single mode [upto 60km]
B)Multi Mode [Upto 2km] 2)Fiber Optics Are Secure Provide speed in terabyte Protected from tapping Imposible to detect light pulse Free space optics 1)No Cables Required 2)Transmitted In Atmosphere  3)Require Line Of Site Availability
4)Units are full duplex 5)No requirement of the license 6)Speed upto tera byte 7)Simplifying Wiring And Cabeling,low Cost 8)No roof space and spectrum license req. 9)Low error rate, high speed
HOW IT WORKS
LASER PHOTON DETECTOR RECEIVER DIGITAL  DATA
Advantages Fso laser beam cannot be detected with rf meter or spectrum analyser Los path cannot be intercepted easily Data can be transmitted over an encrypted connection Freedom from licensing and regulation Possble to mount inside the building
Challenges Atmosphere Physical obstraction Scientillation Solar interface
Atmosphere challenge 1.Fog It affect on near infrared wavelength And have same effect as rainfall have on the  rf Physical obstructions 1.These can be removed by widely spaced Redundant transmitters and large receive optics
Scintillation These can be removed by automatic gain  control char.,Tuned received Filtering,clock recovery phase lock Loop time constant Solar interference It can be combated by 1.Long pass optical filter windo 2.Optical Narrowband Filtering
System design Line of sight operation Spectral allocation Fso link equation Alternate routing Network topologies Network scalability Coverage area Deploymaent and installation
System performance Bandwidth and system capacity Absorption and scattering losses Rayleigh scattering Aerosol,particles,& cloud scattering Atmospheric scintillation Fog Service provider cost
Bandwidth and system capacity 1.Fso use on\off keying for modulation  eg. Light pointe giga link system 2.Speed 1gbps-160gbps On Per Link  Rayleigh scattering It occur due to dust and moleculer particles that are small than wavelength Of laser transmission Scattering losses decreasing by -.4 with increment in wavelength
Scintillation Due to temp.Difference b/w ground and air And the resulting heat exchange Index change according temp.Diff. Heat exchange cause local index variation that affect the laser propagation Fog Solution Of The Fog Is  1.Link planning 2.Multipath
Transmission security To prevent the signal interception we use  Directional transmission Broader signal path have chance to intercept the beam in fso beam is very  Narrow Absense of side lobes Fso have no side lobs.
Conclusion FSO networks can be rapidly deployed to provide immediate service to the customers. Some believe that it may be the unlimited bandwidth solution for the metro urban core of downtown building-to-building communication, as well as the optimal technology for home-to-home and office-to-office connectivity.  FSO adds the wireless feature to the OFC and thus provides the high bandwidth requirements.
Thank You
