Performance analysis of FSO communication systems under different atmospheric conditions.

Free-Space Optical (FSO) communication has received a lot of interest as a last mile technology with several benefits, such as high data speeds, scalability, license-free spectrum usage, and ease of implementation. FSO offers effective data transfer using modulated laser beams by employing the atmosphere as its transmission medium, making it an appealing solution for a variety of applications. However, air interference can have a significant influence on the performance of FSO systems. In this study, we explore the impact of several weather factors on the performance of FSO communication systems, including Clear Air, Haze, Moderate Fog, and Heavy Fog. We examine the quality of received signals under various atmospheric conditions, taking into account critical aspects like transmission range, transmitted power, and data bit rates.
