This paper experimentally investigates the perform-ance of free-space optical (FSO) communication based on mode diversity reception (MDR) using nonmode selective photonic lantern (NSPL) and equal gain combining (EGC). By employing a mode demultiplexer and combining technology in the receiver, the bit error rate (BER) and outage performance of FSO communication system can be significantly improved. However, different from diversity system with multiple receive apertures, the branches in mode diversity system are non-independent fading signals, which are influenced by not only atmospheric but also the modal crosstalk of mode demultiplexer. Therefore, we take into consideration the difference of mode demultiplexer and study four schemes for FSO mode diversity reception system: 1) NSPL with equal gain combining (NSPL-EGC), 2) NSPL with maximal ratio combining (NSPL-MRC), 3) mode selective photonic lantern with equal gain combining (MSPL-EGC), and 4) mode selective photonic lantern with equal gain combining (MSPL-MRC). Experimental results show that NSPL-EGC is the most suitable scheme for MDR with low implementation complexity, and the performance difference is less than 1 dB compared with the one using MRC at BER = 3.8×10−3 under turbulence from weak to strong. |
