ABSTRACT

The full-duplex optical communications can be achieved simply by separating the transmitting link and the receiving link in the space. However, it is challenging to achieve the non-line-of-sight (NLOS) full-duplex ultraviolet (UV) communication due to the serious self-interference caused by the strong multiple scattering effects of UV signals. To explore the capacity of NLOS full-duplex UV communications, in this paper, we first quantify the self-interference using an analytical channel impulse response function. Based on the quantified self-interference, we then derive the error rate and the corresponding achievable information rate (AIR) for on- off keying modulation, 4-digital-pulse-interval modulation and 4-pulse-position modulation. We further propose a self-interference cancelling (SIC) method to mitigate the impacts of self-interferences. Simulation results show that the proposed SIC method can significantly improve the error rate and AIR performances. Besides, we find that the NLOS full-duplex UV communication will gradually lose its advantage over the NLOS half-duplex UV communication as either the communication distance or the elevation angle increases. However, using the proposed SIC method, the NLOS full-duplex UV communication can hold its advantage in a wide range of system geometries.
