New Generation Free-Space Optical Communication Systems With Advanced Optical Beam Stabilizer

In this paper, we introduce a novel concept and design of a full-duplex and all-optical FSO transceiver and evaluate its transmission performance in 200 m outdoor environment. Our transceiver enables a reliable fiber-to-fiber FSO link with intelligent lens-based optical-beam-stabilization (OBS) by utilizing miniaturized and cost-effective 3-axis voice-coil motors (VCMs) actuators. The VCM-based moving lens that is widely used in smartphone cameras for auto-focus and optical-image-stabilization is customized and optimized for our designed transceiver to expand the transmitter and receiver field-of-view, control both the transmitted and incident laser beam alignment, suppress the effects of random beam angle-of-arrival fluctuations induced by the atmospheric turbulence and pointing errors and maintain efficient direct coupling to the fiber core at the receiver. Unlike the 2-axis fast-steering-mirrors, the use of 3-axis VCM lenses can not only maintain the beam alignment, but also control the beam collimation and adjust the difference between the lens focal plane and projection plane for a higher fiber coupling efficiency. Using our developed FSO transceivers, we demonstrate an error-free transmission of the standard signals 10 GbE LAN and common public radio interface (LTE-CPRI) over 200 m links. We also performed a continuous 24-h transmission evaluation in a clear weather day, with only occasional burst errors were recorded and a total 24-h BER of 3 ×10−10 . The obtained results demonstrate the potential of our proposed FSO transceiver to ensure high-capacity communication links and facilitate the adoption of the FSO system as a viable candidate to address the main requirements of B5G/6G networks.
