Abstract

Abstract In order to enhance signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and bit-error-rate (BER) performance on free-space optical (FSO) communications, an optical spatial filter (OSF) is implemented at focus spot of receiver lens. Conceptually, the OSF collects fluctuation of signal intensity that is caused by beam wander and spatial noise at focus spot within a narrow region. The confinement of signal intensity fluctuation in a narrow region that goes random arround the optical axis can minimizes reception of noise into photodetector (PD). It also brings an advantage for enhancing mean value of signal intensity. Hence, PD receives optimum signal power and noise can be minimized. Those noise suppression leads to enhancement SNR performance. It means the distribution of signal power is optimally produced by PD rather than noise. Hence, higher signal intensity and narrow noise bandwidth by the OSF minimize the error distribution that gives an advantage to decrease the order of BER. From the calculations and experiment show that the OSF enhances SNR and BER performance under influenced of turbulence media. In comparison to direct detection (DD) method, the OSF with pinhole of 20 μm and cone reflector of 1.5 mm produces best performance that 〈SNR〉 increases at 4.2 dB and 〈BER〉 decreases at 10-12.
