Abstract
A detailed performance analysis of homodyne-based coherent detection in Free-space optics (FSO) with various optical amplifiers is presented in this paper. Using homodyne detection in FSO system, the effect of scintillation is mitigated. To further enhance the performance of FSO system, various optical amplifiers such as erbium-doped fibre amplifier, semiconductor optical amplifier, gain-controlled amplifier and black box model of amplifier can be employed in the system. Improvement in the system can be validated in terms of BER, Q-factor and eye diagram.
