Free Space Optics (FSO) communications, also called Free Space Photonics (FSP) or Optical Wireless, refers to the transmission of modulated visible or infrared (IR) beams through the atmosphere to obtain optical communications. Like fiber, Free Space Optics (FSO) uses lasers to transmit data, but instead of enclosing the data stream in a glass fiber, it is transmitted through the air. Free Space Optics (FSO) works on the same basic principle as Infrared television remote controls, wireless keyboards
The attached narrated power point presentation attempts to explain the block diagram, working principle, different architectures, advantages, disadvantages and applications of free space optical communications apart from the comparison of free space optics with fiber optics and other counterparts such as RF and metallic cables. The material will be extremely useful for KTU final year B Tech students who prepare for the subject EC 405, Optical Communications.

COMPARISON OF DIFFERENT TRANSMITTERS USING 1550NM AND 10000NM IN FSO COMMUNIC...ijcsit
In the recent past Free Space Optical (FSO) communication has taken over the radio frequency
communication and microwave systems due to its advantages like its long-range operations devoid of need
of license. In this paper we will find the most efficient transmitter suitable for free space optical (FSO)
communication. The theoretical analysis of behaviour of an FSO wireless communications system is done
using on off keying with different transmitters over fog weather conditions. Based on different models for
optical beam propagation at 1550nm and 10000nm on an FSO, the bit error rate (BER) and Q-factor under
fog weather are analyzed.
Free space optics known as (FSO) is very popular now days this is because of increased demand for cheaper, faster and most important affordable internet. So many research scientists have taken the great interest in this field. FSO uses laser for transmitting data at the speed capable of reaching 2.5 Gbps through the air. And its systems use invisible infrared laser light wavelengths in the 780 nm to 1600 nm range. This article explains the FSO security, the transmission characteristics and also its challenges; although Free Space Optic systems can be a better solution for the needs of some broadband networking, there are limitations of bad climatic conditions that influence its performance such as fog, snow and too much rain can shut down the network. The performance of FSO is measured by Bit Error Rates (BER).
Free Space Optics (FSO), also known as Optical Wireless Communication or Laser Communication, is a communication technology that employs beams of light to transmit data through the air or free space. Unlike traditional wired or radio-frequency-based communication methods, FSO relies on the transmission of modulated laser or infrared beams to establish high-speed data links between two points without the need for physical cables.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
2. Introduction
As the name implies , FSO means the
transmission of optical signals through free
space or air .
Bandwidth is similar to fiber optics , but the
only difference is a transmission medium .
Useful complement to radio-based systems .
The primary limiting factor of wireless optical
systems is their limited range .
4. How FSO Works
1
3
4
Network traffic converted into pulses of invisible light representing 1’s and 0’s
Transmitter projects the carefully aimed light pulses into the air2
A receiver at the other end of the link collects the light using lenses and/or
mirrors
Received signal converted back into fiber or copper and connected to the
network
5 Reverse direction data transported the same way.(full duplex)
5. A main requirement for operating FSO system is
unobstructed Line-Of-Sight (LOS) between the
two networking locations.
The optical part of the transmitter involves a
light source and a telescope assembly.
The transmitted light is picked up at the receiver
side by using a lens or a mirror . And the
received light focused on a photo detector.
6. System uses intensity modulation with direct
detection (IM/DD) to achieve optical modulation
and demodulation.
Link type:
- Point to point system
- Diffuse system
7. Point-to-point systems:
- Transmitter and receiver pointed at each other.
- The LOS path from the transmitter to the
receiver must be clear of obstructions .
- Point to point systems are also called directed
LOS systems.
8. Diffuse systems:
- The link is always maintained between any
transmitter and any receiver in the same vicinity
by reflecting or bouncing the transmitted
information .
- The transmitter and receiver are non-directed.
- The diffuse systems are also called non-directed
non-LOS systems.
10. Laser diode selection criteria for FSO :
1) Price and availability of commercial components
2) Transmission power
3) Life time
4) Modulation capabilities
5) Eye safety
6) Physical dimensions
7) Compatibility with other transmission media Such
as fiber.
11. safety
Eye safety:
- The cornea is transparent near the IR .
- The near IR is outside the visible range of light , and
so the eye does no protect itself by closing the
eyelid.
Skin safety:
- Short-term effects
- Long-term effects
12. Receiver:
Silicon p-i-n photodiodes:
- Creates an electron-hole Pair when a photon
Strikes The photodiode’s surface
13. Avalanche photodiode (APD):
- Have a internal current gain effect due to
avalanche effect (impact ionization)
14. Detectors selection criteria for FSO :
1) Responsivity :
- measures the gain of a detector system.
2) Rise time:
3) Quantum efficiency:
- incident photon to converted electron ratio
15. The FSO System Design
Internal parameters:
1) Optical power
2) Wavelength
3) Transmission bandwidth
4) Optical loss
5) Transmitter angle of divergence (AOD)
6) Receiver sensitivity
7) Receiver lens diameter
8) Receiver Field of view (FOV)
19. Atmospheric attenuation:
Caused by low clouds , rain , snow , dust , and
mainly by fog.
Fog: modify light characteristics or completely
hinder the passage of light through them
through a combination of absorption,scattering
and reflection.
Solution:
- Increasing the transmit power.
- Reducing the distance between the transmitter and
the receiver.
22. Mis-Alignment :
Caused by spreading the diameter of
Transmitted beam, this narrow transmitted
beam will arrive at the narrow field-of-view.
23. Noise in FSO:
- The detector is illuminated by sources of light
energy other than the main source.
- Noise is also called background light.
Noise can be broken into four components:
1) Photon noise or shot noise
2) Gain noise
3) Thermal noise
4) Periodic noise
26. Optical filters used in FSO
Used to reject out of band ambient radiation and
reduce the intensity reaching the detector.
Low-pass filter in combination with a silicon detector
provides a natural narrowing of the bandwidth.
Absorption filters can be used to reject solar and
illumination
Band-pass interference filters
27. Advantages of FSO
1) High rates
2) No frequency license required
3) Fast and easy installation
4) Distance up to kms (20m – 8km)
5) Compatible with other access technology
6) Cost effective , movable asset
7) Internal and external mounting
