摘要
To facilitate the efficient support of quality-of-service(Qo S)for promising free-space optical(FSO)communication systems,it is essential to model and analyze FSO channels in terms of delay Qo S.However,most existing works focus on the average capacity and outage capacity for FSO,which are not enough to characterize the effective transmission data rate when delay-sensitive service is applied.In this paper,the effective capacity of FSO communication systems under statistical Qo S provisioning constraints is investigated to meet heterogeneous traffic demands.A novel closed-form expression for effective capacity is derived under the combined effects of atmospheric turbulence conditions,pointing errors,beam widths,detector sizes and Qo S exponents.The obtained results reveal the effects of some significant parameters on effective capacity,which can be used for the design of FSO systems carrying a wide range of services with diverse Qo S requirements.
