Effect of rain & haze on availability of terrestrial free space optical link under tropical weather conditions

Availability is a major concern to measure the QoS of Free Space Optical (FSO) communication link. In tropical areas, rain is the most dominant factor affecting the FSO link availability; whereas haze has no significant impact on FSO link availability compare to rain. In this paper,availability as...

In this paper,availability assessment of FSO was examined based on predicted atmospheric attenuations due to rain and haze. The predicted atmospheric attenuations due to rain and haze were obtained using rain rate (mm/hr) and visibility (km) data measured in Malaysia.
