Analysis of Scintillation Effects on Free Space Optical Communication Links in South Africa

Analysis of Scintillation Effects on Free Space Optical Communication Links in South Africa

The performance of free space optical communication (FSOC) systems is severely degraded by certain atmospheric conditions prevalent in places where they are deployed, in spite of their numerous advantages. In clear weather conditions, the random fluctuation in the atmosphere’s refractive index cause...
