ANALISYS OF THE INFLUENCE OF COMMUNICATION PARAMETERS OF FSO CHANNELS ON THE RECEPTION QUALITY

In this paper, the signal transmission in the Free-Space Optics (FSO) communication system using the software package OptiSystem 7.0 is analyzed. The influence of parameters FSO (Free-Space-Optics) channels (Range, Attenuation, Beam Divergence, Transmitter Loss, Receiver Loss, and Additional Losses) on the reception quality is considered. The reception quality is analyzed according to the values of BER (Bit Error Ratio) and Q factor. Graphics and tables of the changes of BER and Q factor depending on the parameters of FSO are given. Also, the eye diagrams for the characteristic parameter values are given.

LEVEL CROSSING RATE OF MACRODIVERSITY WITH THREE MICRODIVERSITY SC RECEIVERS OVER GAMMA SHADOWED NAKAGAMI-M CHANNEL

Macrodiversity system with macrodiversity selection combining (SC) receiver and three microdiversity SC receivers operating over Gamma shadowed Nakagami-m multipath fading environment is considered in this work. Level crossing arte of signals at outputs microdiversity SC receivers are calculated and by using these formulas, closed form expression for average level crossing rate of macrodiversity SC receiver output signal is evaluated. Average fade duration of proposed macrodiversity system can be calculated as ratio of outage probability and level crossing rate. By using obtained results the influence of Nakagami-m multipath fading severity parameter, Gamma shadowing severity parameter and shadowing correlation parameter on average level crossing rate is analyzed and discussed.

CHARACTERISTICS OF HYBRID BROADCAST BROADBAND TELEVISION (HBBTV)

This paper describes the working principle of hybrid broadcast-broadband TV (Hybrid Broadcast Broadband TV - HbbTV). The architecture of HbbTV system is given, the principle of its operation, as well as an overview of HbbTV specification standards that are in use, with their basic characteristics. Here are described the services provided by Hybrid TV. It is also provided an overview of the distribution of HbbTV services in Europe in terms of the number of TV channels that HbbTV services offer, the number of active hybrid TV devices, HbbTV standards which are in use and models of broadcast networks used to distribute HbbTV service.

ANALYSIS OF SHANNON CAPACITY FOR SC AND MRC DIVERSITY SYSTEMS IN α-κ-μ FADING CHANNEL

In this paper, the analysis of Shannon capacity for selection combining (SC) and maximal ratio combining (MRC) diversity systems in the generalized α-κ-μ fading channel is presented. Closed-form expressions for probability density function (PDF) at the output of SC and MRC diversity systems are given. Also, closed-form expressions for Shannon capacity for cases of SC diversity with independent and identically distributed branches, MRC diversity with independent and identically distributed branches and for case of no diversity are derived. The obtained results are numerically calculated and graphically presented for different combinations of fading parameters α, κ and μ.
