Abstract
Strong atmospheric turbulence can highly affect the free space optical (FSO) link. In fact, the strength of turbulence is depending on weather factors where the temperature is considered as the main parameter increasing these turbulences. In this work, an experimental investigation of the effect of Qatar's harsh climate on FSO link in term of packet ratio delivery (PDR) is carried out. Two FSO transceivers, operating June at 1550 nm for 600 m link distance, have been used. Based on Bendersky, Kopeika and Blaunstein (BKB) model and on the measured weather factors we tried to characterise the strength of turbulences under Qatar climate.
