Availability modeling of terrestrial free-space-optical links using fade statistics from tropical climate

Free-space optical (FSO) links provide gigabit per second data rates, but its availability can easily be affected by weather conditions. FSO is a promising technology for providing high performance of wireless networking. In heavy rainfall regions, FSO links are relatively sensitive to rain. Availab...
