Abstract
In this paper, we present our custom design atmospheric channel emulator for free space optical (FSO) system evaluations in a controlled environment. Our emulator is in the form of an atmospheric chamber with dimensions of 60 cm × 40 cm × 300 cm. It is equipped with adjustable heaters, coolers and fans to create the turbulence. It also houses a fog generator and droplet watering system to generate different weather conditions. Using this custom-design emulator, we experimentally investigate the performance of FSO links at different wavelengths in fog conditions.
