In this article, we investigate the performance of the newly designed 4 × 4 optical wireless multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO-OWC) system based on a linearly-shaped arrangement of transmitters and receivers, to achieve long-distance and high data rate transmission. To highlight the importance of selecting an appropriate arrangement for the optical elements, we carried on a comparative study, considering both the conventional square and the proposed horizontal linear constellation of optical modems. The performance of the bit error rate (BER) is experimentally evaluated at distances up to 65 m, using two important metrics inherent to the MIMO transmission channel matrix, i.e., the Frobenius norm and the condition number. The results show that the channel matrix shape characterized by the condition number dominates the BER if the Frobenius norm is smaller than 1. Furthermore, the proposed MIMO-OWC system employing a linearly-shaped arrangement of transmitters and receivers, shows to be more immune to the calibration error rather than the conventional square constellation optical modems. Moreover, the transmission of 100 Mbps data-rate and a BER lower than 10-4 could be successfully achieved at a 65 m communication range. |
