Performance Analysis of 5G Millimeter Waves over Free Space Optics System

Abstract

In recent year the free-space optical communication (FSO) has become more interesting as its alternative to radio frequency communication. The links of Free-space optical (FSO) communication very sensitive for a lot of variability which make a real challenge for efficient, robust system design. In free space optic the information sends through the optical fiber as pluses, so a large dynamic range will provide, from designed systems in most cases. The FSO is a line-of-sight (LOS) technology that transmits a modulated beam of visible or infrared light through the atmosphere for broadband communications. The focus of this work is to investigate the feasibility and design of free-space optical (FSO) with millimeter waves for 5th generation. Consequently, the conducted analysis done by using optisystem software. As a result, the analysis generated based on Eye diagram, transmitted power, Q factor and distance.
