Characterising Interleaver Length in a Turbulent Deployed Terrestrial Free-Space Optical Link

Kadir Gümüş, Vincent van Vliet, Menno van den Hout +3

We investigate the correlation between interleaver length and turbulence for a deployed terrestrial free-space optical link spanning 4.6 km. Using 24 hours of measurements, we show…

Mitigating Outages in a 4.6-km FSO Link via Mode-Diverse Reception: An Experimentally Validated Digital Twin Approach

Jonas Krimmer, Vincent van Vliet, Menno van den Hout +3

Terrestrial coherent FSO requires mitigating turbulence-induced coupling losses. We experimentally validate a "Digital Twin" channel model against fading statistics from a 4.6-km l…
