BER and outage throughput analysis of DPIM/DHPIM coded QPSK-OFDM based outdoor optical wireless communications

초록

With the growing demand for fast and reliable communication systems, particularly in outdoor environments, it is essential to investigate advanced encoding techniques. Digital Pulse Interval Modulation (DPIM) and Dual Header Pulse Interval Modulation (DHPIM) emerge as promising alternatives to traditional line coding methods, providing enhanced spectral efficiency and resistance to signal disruptions. This paper presents the performance of a Quadrature Phase-Shift Keying (QPSK) Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM)-based Optical Wireless Communication (OWC) system using these advanced encoding schemes. The analysis includes simulation results on QPSK-OFDM-based transmitter design, free space optical channel modeling based on Gaussian and log-normal distribution atmospheric turbulence, and recovery of input digital stream using the mentioned line coding techniques. The results demonstrate optimal bit error rate (BER) values for the QPSK-OFDM-based OWC system. The primary innovation of this research lies in the encoding schemes and their performance in outdoor optical wireless communication systems under turbulent conditions. Through extensive simulations and analysis, detailed insights into the bit error rate and outage throughput characteristics of DPIM/DHPIM coded QPSK-OFDM are provided, offering a unique perspective on the performance of these schemes in real-world scenarios. The findings not only highlight the optimal BER values achievable with the QPSK-OFDM-based OWC system but also offer insights into the system's ability to overcome transmission challenges under various atmospheric conditions. © 2024 The Authors.
