Abstract In this paper, average channel capacity of optical wireless communication system is evaluated under the combined effect of geometrical loss, attenuation due to weather conditions and weak atmospheric turbulence using a simple closed form expression. Fading induced due to atmospheric turbulence is modeled by log-normal distribution. Considering the fact that the sum of log-normal random variables can be well approximated by another log-normal random variable, the proposed expression has been utilized to compute the channel capacity for spatial diversity reception employing maximum ratio combining and equal gain combining over uncorrelated turbulence-induced fading conditions. It is shown that spatial diversity is an effective technique to mitigate the impairments caused by various atmospheric conditions such as haze, rain and fog. The quantitative improvement in channel capacity achieved by using diversity techniques is investigated and compared. Accuracy of the results is validated with exact results computed using Monte Carlo simulation.

In this paper, we have evaluated the channel capacity of SISO and MIMO system with respect to Rayleigh fading channel. We have compared the results with respect to different receiver diversity techniques like MRC, EGC, SC. We have presented the results of SER v/s SNR with respect to 16-QAM modulation technique. We have also presented the results of SNR v/s capacity of SISO and MIMO system. For simulation, we have used MATLAB R2014 software.
