On the Capacity Performance of Hybrid FSO/RF System With Adaptive Combining Over Generalized Distributions

Abstract: This paper investigates the ergodic capacity performance of hybrid free space optics (FSO)/ radio frequency (RF) system by employing an adaptive-combining-based switching scheme. In the adaptive combining scheme, the FSO and RF links are combined using the maximal-ratio combining (MRC) at the output, when the instantaneous signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the FSO link drops below a predefined threshold SNR value. The FSO link experiences the atmospheric turbulence, which is modeled using the generalized Malaga d… Show more

“…Vishwakarma and Swaminathan [273] introduced an adaptive switching system between FSOC and RF in a hybrid setup, comparing its performance with other communication systems. Wu et al [274] presented a parallel transmission hybrid FSOC/ RF communication system, enabling simultaneous data transmission through FSOC and RF.…”

“…Then, the whole traffic travels through either FSO or RF channel; (2) the traffic is duplicated and routed through both the FSO and RF channels simultaneously, and the switcher selects either available traffic at the receiver side. The adaptive combining 2,11 approaches can be viewed as the kind of improved hard‐switching methods avoiding frequent hardware switching between the FSO and RF channels and preferring use of the FSO channel. Some researchers think that hard‐switching methods are not optimal in the sense of exploiting the available resources, they use complicated coding strategies to utilize both channel capacities by encoding data with a portion of the codeword split to FSO and RF links 1,4,6 …”
