Dense Deployment: No Help Beyond a Point
As we add more RF nodes, per-node throughput diminishes
Dense deployment of many omni-directional antennas increase interference
sqrt(N) as N increases (Gupta, Kumar, Tran. on Inf. Theo. 2000)
Can become linear with hierarchical cooperative MIMO imposing constraints on topology and mobility pattern (Ozgur et al., Tran. on Inf. Theo. 2006)
None is able to totally eliminate the scaling problemThe RF spectrum is getting saturated.. We need alternative communication spectrum resources.
MSWiM, October 2010
6Free-Space-Optical (FSO): open spectrum
Open spectrum: 2.4GHz, 5.8GHz, 60GHz, > 300 GHz
Lots of open spectrum up in the optical regime!
FSO usage: point-to-point links interconnects indoor infrared
communications
DoD use of FSO: Satellite communications DARPA ORCL project: air-to-
ground, air-to-air, air-to-satellite

Many FSO components are very low cost and available for mass production.
Lasers…
LEDs…
VCSELs…
IrDAs…

FSO-MANETs VisionFree-Space-Optical
(FSO) Communications
Mobile Ad-Hoc Networking
• High bandwidth• Low power• Dense spatial reuse• License-free band of operation
• Mobile communication• Auto-configuration
Free-Space-OpticalAd Hoc Networks
• Spatial reuse and angular diversity in nodes• Low power and secure• Electronic auto-alignment• Optical auto-configuration (switching, routing)

Optical Wireless: Why? Positive points:
More Secure: Highly directional + small size & weight => low probability of interception (LPI)
High-brightness LEDs (HBLEDs) are very low cost and highly reliable components
35-65 cents a piece, and $2-$5 per transceiver package + upto 10 years lifetime
Very low power consumption (100 microwatts for 10-100 Mbps!)
Even lower power for 1-10 Mbps 4-5 orders of magnitude improvement in
energy/bit compared to RF Huge spatial reuse => multiple parallel
channels for huge bandwidth increases due to spectral efficiency
Issues: Need line-of-sight (LOS); and alignment of LOS
Can we leverage these benefits while solving the issues?
MSWiM, October 2010
10
FSO Issues/Disadvantages Limited range (no waveguide, unlike fiber optics) Need line-of-sight (LOS)
Any obstruction or poor weather (fog, heavy rain/snow) can increase BER in a bursty manner
Bigger issue: Need tight LOS alignment: LOS alignment must be changed/maintained with
mobility or sway! Effects of relative distance and mobility Received power
Spatial profile: ~ Gaussian drop off
MSWiM, October 2010
11
FSO Modules: Alignment Protocol
Goal: Provide an FSO link with “seamless” alignment
Steer the data transmission among the transceivers as the nodes move with respect to each other
Need a 3-way handshake among the transceivers to assure a bidirectional alignment
MSWiM, October 2010
12
FSO Modules: Alignment Protocol
Send “search” frames periodically
need an “alignment timer”
Receive data frames only after alignment is established
might still get wrong or erroneous frames – leave them to the higher layers

FSO Modules: Alignment Protocol
Maintain “alignment lists” to keep track of which transceiver is aligned with which neighbor

FSO Modules: Propagation & Interference
FSO Propagation Geometric Attenuation
divergence angle receiver’s surface
Atmospheric Attenuation
visibility
FSO Interference Must consider the FSO
signals coming from other nodes too

FSO Simulations in NS-2 How good/bad the
transport performance will be if we have FSO nodes with
mobility multiple transceivers?
Needed to add several things to NS-2
multi-transceiver nodes
LOS alignment protocol
FSO propagation obstacles

FSO Simulations in NS-2Mobility is a major problem for throughput scaling!
Nodes with wider divergence angle transceivers perform better due to resemblance to RF.

Summary & Future Work
Contributed multi-transceiver simulation modules for free-space-optical communication.
Accurate simulation of multi-transceiver FSO structures reveals differences with RF in TCP behavior.
Intermittent connectivity pattern requires re-consideration of network layers to enable cross-layer buffering.
