Rectangular Patch Antenna with Dual and Triple-band using Complementary Split ring Resonator (CSRR)
Abstract: This paper presents the idea of a Complementary Split Ring Resonator (CSRR)-based multiband microstrip patch antenna. By etching the CSRR in the ground plane of the conventional rectangular patch antenna, several bands are obtained, thereby miniaturizing the conventional antenna. This article examined and contrasted the results of the microstrip antenna with two, four and six CSRR inclusions. Because of the quasi-static resonance properties of the complementary split square resonators, the …

Study of Multiple Input Multiple Output Free Space Optical Terrestrial Link
Abstract: AbstractAtmospheric turbulence causes mitigation in the performance of the Free Space Optical Link (FSO) transmission. The performance changes due to scintillation. To reduce the effect of scintillation, we have employed a Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) FSO link which gives better performance as compared to Single Input Single Output (SISO) FSO link. We have combined the detector output with different combining techniques i.e. Selection Combining (SC), Equal Gain Combining (EGC) …

BER Performance Comparison of Coded Communication Systems under Different Turbulence Coditions of Free Space Optical Channel
Abstract: AbstractThe congestion and the limitations on bandwidths of the radio spectrum have posed a constraint for the growth of radio wireless systems. Wireless optical communication, also known as free space optical communication (FSO), is believed to be a long-term option for many wireless communication applications. Atmospheric turbulence is generally considered to be multiplicative noise source that reduces the capability of receiver to estimate the information contained in the modulated optical …

Simulation of Differential Space Time Block Coding
Abstract: AbstractIn such a coherent system, the underlying assumption is that the channel does not change during one frame of data. Thus, it can also be interpreted as the frame length is chosen such that the path gain change during one frame is negligible. This is basically the quasi-static fading assumption that we have used so far. There is a bandwidth penalty due to the number of transmitted pilot symbols. Of …
