The Last-Mile problem
• Fiber optic network exist worldwide and the amount of installed fiber will continue to grow
• Construction is prohibitively high and can take month to finish
Service provider
Fiber giga bit/s
Customer
Virtually infinite Demand end user
30k – a few Mb/sCentralHub
Infinite bandwidth backbone Last mile

Solution to the Last-Mile – Optical Wireless Network
To replace existing copper cable
Low cost

What is Optical wirelesscommunication?
Optical carrier , rather then radio/microwave (305 THz)
Outdoor link point up to 5 km Wireless network offer increase mobility Provide higher bandwidth

Frequently Asked Question
Did atmospheric condition make line-of-sight optical communication problematic and unreliable ?
1Gb/s over 1Km though very dense fogby use of special transmitter and receiver

Eye Safety
The maximum intensity that can enter the eye depend on the wavelength whether the laser is a small or e
xtended source and the beam divergence angle
In general OW systems operating at 1.3μm
Gaussian intensity profile : Io = 2 P/πw2

Atmospheric Turbulence On Optical Links
Problem • Diameter fluctuate
• light dance
• Scintillation
For longer ranges , in principle , turbulence effects can be mitigated by• Adaptive optic transmitter/receiver
• Delayer diversity

Link state
In our Opacity wireless network approach responses to link state change include
• Varying the transmitter divergence , power , and/or capacity
• Varying the transmission of the link
• Redirection of laser beams

Optical link characteristics
We are investigating high-data-rate free-space optical links that can be reconfigured dynamically
Key characteristics include:• Optimal obscuration penetration
• Dynamic link acquisition , initiation , and tracking
• Topology control to provide robust quality of service
