High Data Transfer Rate Spatial Division Multiplexing for Short Range non-Line-of-Sight Ultraviolet Optical Transmission.

To overcome the inherent bandwidth limitation of non-line-of-sight (NLOS) ultraviolet communication (UVC) channel, a novel space division multiplexing (SDM) framework based on non-coplanar rotation angle is established. The influence of SDM structure parameters on inter-channel interference (ICI) is studied to obtain the optimal antenna configuration. And a Gaussian approximate distribution (GAD) signal detection model is presented, which simplifies the calculation of the Bit error rate (BER) of the Photon multiplier tube (PMT) reception and is suitable for complex ICI analysis. Furthermore, a low ICI scheme based on the relationship between BER and the interference factor is proposed to increase the data transmission rate or reduce the alignment configuration. As a result, the maximum data rate increases to 34 Mbps, or the alignment demand decreases by 33.33% at most. Moreover, these analysis results and techniques can be applied to other NLOS scattering optical wireless communication systems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
