Statistical Channel Model for FSO Systems Assisted by a UAV-Mounted IRS
Ferdaous Tarhouni, Vasilis K. Papanikolaou, Laura Cottatellucci +2
Integrating optical intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRSs) into aerial platforms, such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), has been proposed to relax the line-of-sight (LoS) constr…
Statistical Characterization of Wind-Induced Beam Refraction in Water-to-Air Optical Channels
Mohamed Nennouche, Ikenna Chinazaekpere Ijeh, Mohammad-Ali Khalighi
Direct water-to-air (W2A) optical communications experience strong beam refraction at the dynamic sea surface. This letter proposes a novel and tractable statistical channel model…
Air-Sea Surface Modeling and Operating Link Range Evaluation for AUV-to-UAV Optical Wireless Communication Links
Ikenna Chinazaekpere Ijeh, Mohammad Ali Khalighi, Wasiu O. Popoola
Air-sea surface interactions play a critical role in underwater-to-air optical wireless communication (OWC) links, particularly in vertical autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) to u…
End-to-End Optical Propagation Modeling for Water-to-Air Channels under Sea Surface and UAV Effects
Mohamed Nennouche, Mohammad-Ali Khalighi, Alexis Alfredo Dowhuszko +1
Underwater observatories have recently emerged as an efficient solution for marine biodiversity monitoring. The primary objective of this work is to enable efficient and cost-effec…
