RIS辅助的混合RF/FSO系统物理层安全性能分析

【目的】针对自由空间光(FSO)链路和射频(RF)链路的保密信息容易被外部窃听者窃听的问题,为提升混合RF/FSO通信系统的保密性能,同时考虑到实际工程中FSO链路往往无法满足视距条件且不同天线分支之间会由于收发模块小型化产生相关性,需要对可重构智能表面(RIS)辅助的混合RF/FSO系统的安全性能进行研究,以得到系统安全性能与RIS部署位置和天线相关性程度等参数的关系。【方法】文章考虑单个窃听者,分别针对RF和FSO链路进行窃听,RF链路服从任意相关的Nakagami-m分布,FSO链路服从Gamma-Gamma分布。采用解码转发协议,推导得到了两种窃听场景下通信系统的安全中断概率(SOP)和严格正安全容量概率(SPSC)的闭合表达式,并对SOP进行了渐近分析。此外还利用Matlab软件进行了仿真实验,通过蒙特卡洛仿真来验证所推导公式的准确性。【结果】仿真结果表明,将RIS部署在靠近接收端的位置可以降低系统的SOP,RF主信道的信道质量与窃听信道相比较好时,天线相关性程度的增加会使系统的SOP上升。【结论】RIS辅助的FSO链路相比RF链路具有更好的安全性,虽然多天线分集技术能够有效提高系统的安全性能,但是类似指向误差和大气湍流引起的衰落,天线相关性也会对系统的安全性能造成损害,通过降低天线相关性程度能有效提升系统的安全性。

Real-Time 4-Mode MDM Transmission Using Commercial 400G OTN Transceivers and All-Fiber Mode Multiplexers

Weakly-coupled mode division multiplexing(MDM)technique is considered a promising candidate to enhance the capacity of an optical transmission system,in which mode multiplexers/demultiplexers(MMUX/MDEMUX)with low insertion loss and modal crosstalk are the key components.In this paper,a low-modal-crosstalk 4-mode MMUX/MDEMUX for the weakly-coupled triple-ring-core few-mode fiber(TRC-FMF)is designed and fabricated with side-polishing processing.The measurement results show that a pair of MMUX/MDEMUX and 25 km weakly-coupled TRC-FMF MDM link achieve low modal crosstalk of lower than−17.5 dB and insertion loss of lower than 11.56 dB for all the four modes.Based on the TRC-FMF and all-fiber MMUX/MDEMUX,an experiment for 25 km real-time 4-mode 3-λwavelength division multiplexing(WDM)-MDM transmission is conducted using commercial 400G optical transport network(OTN)transceivers.The experimental results prove weakly-coupled MDM techniques facilitate a smooth upgrade of the optical transmission system.

One optical fiber transmission system is designed. The modularization optical fiber transmission adapters were utilized in the system, so the system structure could be flexibly sealable. The sub-array adapter and signal processor adapter were designed and realized utilizing the new field programmable gate array （FP- GA） which could drive the optical transceiver.

The phased array radar system has detected the airplane target, thus validated the feasibility of the design method.

Phase-stabilized RF transmission system based on LLRF controller and optical delay line

Radio frequency(RF)transmission systems with high-precision phase stability are required by the next generation of particle colliders and light sources.An RF transmission system was designed to meet this requirement.In this system,RF signal generated at the sending end is modulated onto a continuous wave(CW)optical carrier,transmitted through an optical fiber,and demodulated at the receiving end.The phase drift is detected by a digital phase monitor with femtosecond-level accuracy and compensated by a motorized optical fiber delay line(ODL).The measurement results show that the long-term phase drifts can be stabilized to within 100 fs(pk-pk),500 fs(pk-pk),and 1.8 ps(pk-pk)in a 400-meter-long optical fiber over 1 h,24 h,and 10 days,respectively.

Multi-Hop Free Space Optical Communications Using Serial Decode-and-Forward Relay Transmissions

This paper investigates the performance of multi-hop Free Space Optical(FSO) communications using serial Decode-and-Forward(DF) relay transmissions.A statistical model for the optical intensity fluctuation at the receiver due to the combined effects of atmospheric turbulence-induced fading,mis alignment fading and pass-loss is presented.Under given weather and mis alignment conditions,a closed-form analytical expression for the end-to-end outage probability of serial Decode-and-Forward(DF) multi-hop FSO communications is derived.Numerical results show that the serial DF multi-hop transmission is a promising technology to enhance the performance of FSO communications.Moreover,the derived analytical expression can provide close approximations to the simulation results.

Effects of interplay between metal subwavelength slits on extraordinary optical transmission

In this paper we study the extraordinary optical transmission of one-dimensional multi-slits in an ideal metal film.The transmissivity is calculated as a function of various structural parameters.The transmissivity oscillates,with the period being just the light wavelength,as a function of the spacing between slits.As the number of slits increases,the transmissivity varies in one of three ways.It can increase,attenuate,or remain basically unchanged,depending on the spacing between slits.Each way is in an oscillatory manner.The slit interaction responsible for the oscillating transmission strength that depends on slit spacing is the subject of more detailed investigation.The interaction most intuitively manifests as a current distribution in the metal surface between slits.We find that this current is attenuated in an oscillating fashion from the slit corners to the center of the region between two adjacent slits,and we present a mathematical expression for its waveform.

Study on optical constants inversion and infrared transmission characteristics of aerosol particles

Based on the experimental infrared spectral transmittances,an inverse model has been developed to determine the optical constants of the aerosol particles (SiO2 and Al2O3).Combined with the Mie theory and Kramers-Kronig (K-K) relations,the complex refractive indices of the SiO2 and Al2O3 particles are retrieved.The effects of the measurement errors on the inverse results are also investigated.With the optical constants inversed from the experiment,the discrete ordinate method (DOM) is used to calculate the infrared transmission characteristics of the aerosol particle cloud.Considering the multi-scattering and self-emission of the particles,the equivalent transmittance ratio (ETR) is suggested to evaluate the infrared transmission characteristics of the aerosol particles.Particular attention is given to analyze the effects of the volume fraction and diameters on infrared transmission characteristics.When the volume fraction is larger than 0.001,the particle diameter has little effect on the infrared transmission characteristics.For the uniform monodisperse particles in the detection waveband range of 3-5 μm and 8-12 μm,there exists a critical diameter where the ETR reaches the minimum value.In addition,the ETR of 3-5 μm is smaller than that of 8-12 μm with the same volume fraction and particle diameter.

A planar chiral nanostructure with asymmetric transmission of linearly polarized wave and huge optical activity in near-infrared band

Just like an electronic diode that allows the electrical current to flow in one direction only, a kind of chiral metamaterial structure with a similar functionality for the electromagnetic wave is proposed. The designed nanostructure that consists of twisted metallic split-ring resonators on both sides of a dielectric substrate achieves asymmetric transmission for a forward and backward propagating linearly polarized wave by numerical simulation in near-infrared band. Difference in transmission efficiency of the optimized structure between the same polarized waves incident from opposite directions can reach a maximum at the communication wavelength （1.55 μm）. Moreover, the simulation results of this structure also exhibit strong optical activity and circular dichroism.

Multi-cycle reconfigurable THz extraordinary optical transmission using chalcogenide metamaterials

Metamaterials composed of metallic antennae arrays are used as they possess extraordinary optical transmission(EOT)in the terahertz(THz)region,whereby a giant forward light propagation can be created using constructive interference of tunneling surface plasmonic waves.However,numerous applications of THz meta-devices demand an active manipula-tion of the THz beam in free space.Although some studies have been carried out to control the EOT for the THz region,few of these are based upon electrical modulation of the EOT phenomenon,and novel strategies are required for act-ively and dynamically reconfigurable EOT meta-devices.In this work,we experimentally present that the EOT resonance can be coupled to optically reconfigurable chalcogenide metamaterials which offers a reversible all-optical control of the THz light.A modulation efficiency of 88%in transmission at 0.85 THz is experimentally observed using the EOT metama-terials,which is composed of a gold(Au)circular aperture array sitting on a non-volatile chalcogenide phase change ma-terial(Ge2Sb2Te5)film.This comes up with a robust and ultrafast reconfigurable EOT over 20 times of switching,excited by a nanosecond pulsed laser.The measured data have a good agreement with finite-element-method numerical simula-tion.This work promises THz modulators with significant on/off ratios and fast speeds.

Giant Asymmetric Transmission and Optical Rotation of a Three-Dimensional Metamaterial

We show that giant asymmetric transmission and optical rotation for linear polarizations can be achieved by a chiral three-dimensional metamaterial composed of L-shaped and C-shaped metallic particles. Numerical calcu- lations on the electric field distributions indicate that the coupling between the electric dipolar and quadrupolar resonances in the L- and C-shaped metallic particles contributes to these effects.

Improved FEC Code Based on Concatenated Code for Optical Transmission Systems

The improved three novel schemes of the super forward error correction （super-FEC） concatenated codes are proposed after the development trend of long-haul optical transmission systems and the defects of the existing FEC codes have been analyzed. The performance simulation of the Reed-Solomon（RS）＋ Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocguenghem（BCH） inner-outer serial concatenated code is implemented and the conceptions of encoding/decoding the parallel-concatenated code are presented. Furthermore, the simulation results for the RS（255,239） ＋RS（255,239） code and the RS（255,239） ＋RS（255,223） code show that the two consecutive concatenated codes are a superior coding scheme with such advantages as the better error correction, moderate redundancy and easy realization compared to the classic RS（255,239） code and other codes, and their signal to noise ratio gains are respectively 2-3 dB more than that of the RS（255,239）code at the bit error rate of 1 × 10^-13. Finally, the frame structure of the novel consecutive concatenated code is arranged to lay a firm foundation in designing its hardware.

Effect of Overlaid Material on Optical Transmission of Side-Polished Fiber Made by Wheel Side Polishing

The performance of optical power transmission through a side-polished fiber on which materials of different refractive indices were overlaid is investigated. The experiments show that the transmitted optical power through the side-polished fiber varies with the refractive index of the overlaid material. The result of our experiments fits well the theoretical calculation. Side-polished fiber manufactured by wheel polishing method can be used not only to control optical power transmission through the fiber core but also as a refractive index sensor.

Nonreciprocal transmission of electromagnetic waves by three-layer magneto-optical mediums

We investigate the non-reciprocal transmission properties of a three-layer structure filled with magneto–optical medium and normal medium. Based on the transfer matrix method, we deduce the total transmission coefficient for a one-dimensional(1 D) structure with anisotropic mediums. When two-side layers with magneto–optical medium loaded in opposite external magnetic field, the time-reversal symmetry of transmission properties will be broken. Our numerical results show that the non-reciprocal transmission properties are influenced by external magnetic fields, incident angle, and thickness of the normal medium layer. Since the non-reciprocal properties can be easily realized and adjusted by the simple structure, such a design has potential applications in integrated circulators and isolators.

Optical transmission through basic-structural-unit superlattices

In this paper, by the transparent-component-decimation （TCD） method we obtain three kinds of new basic- components （BCs） through simplifying and decomposing the BCs of three-component Thue-Morse （3CTM） sequence. Based on these new BCs we propose a type of basic-structural-units （BSUs） and investigate the optical transmission of the one-dimensional （1D） superlattices composed of these BSUs. It is found that if the substrates of the 1D BSU superlattices are certain, the optical transmission at the central wavelength （CW） will be determined completely by the number and the type of BSUs and has nothing to do with the marshalling sequence. In particular, if the substrates are identical, the numbers of different types of BSUs are all the same and the middle two elements of BSUs constitute a cycle, then no matter whether the system is periodic, or quasiperiodic, or aperiodic, or unordered, or even random, it will be transparent at the CW. The conclusion is confirmed by the numerical results. Similar to the even layers of neighbourhood identical elements in TCD method, such a kind of optical BSU subsystem can also be decimated from the chain in the process of transmission investigation. There would be a potential application in the designing of some interesting optical devices.

Influence of Laser Phase Noise on Nonlinear Optical Fiber Transmission System

he influence of laser linewidth on optical fiber transmission systems has been investigated. The maximum transmission distances at different linewidths are first calculated in linear systems with various bit rates. Then it is found that SPM can significantly enhance the PMAM noise which severely deteriorates the performance of system with high optical power and large dispersion. In this case, the laser linewidth and optical power must be well controlled.
