Abstract

A convolutional coded on-off keying optical wireless system using intensity modulation and direct detection is studied for strong turbulence channels. We introduce a series expansion approach to derive a closed-form series expression for the pairwise error probability, and to simplify the union upper bound on the average bit-error rate.
