Abstract Communication networks are forced to transition to optical access networks in order to boost the information rate of transmission due to huge utilization of internet. Passive optical networks (PONs) are a highly developed and promising technology that offers low cost design, high bandwidth, and information rate for both residential and commercial use. PON uses the passive components incorporating couplers, splitters, as well as combiners. Compared to modern access networks, PON features bidirectional capabilities, cost-effectiveness, high resource efficiency, transparency, privacy, flexibility, along with upgradeability. Due to these ever increasing demands for high bandwidth, high capacity, and long reach communication for next generation networks, next generation passive optical networks (NG-PONs) are optimum choice. It provides cost-effective, energy efficient network architecture and can be realized in integrated wired/wireless network scenarios for fronthaul/backhaul data transmissions. This paper reviews the standardization process of PON that led to the development of the NG-PON. The detail literature review of various technologies related to PON and NG-PON has been conducted. Potential drawbacks of NG-PON as well as the advantages and disadvantages of various strategies are also discussed besides the future scope. Meanwhile it offers long haul high bandwidth hybrid scenarios. The futuristic PON networks may be realized for high undersea, satellite, and beyond sixth generation (6G) networks.

ABSTRACTDigital filter multiple access passive optical network (DFMA‐PON) is adopted in recent years as it offers the high bandwidth, elastic network slicing, low latency, fixed data rate, and massive end‐user comparability. To overcome limited system capacity, low transmission rate and fiber fault in existing DFMA‐PONs, a wheel architecture based full‐duplex 8 × 200 Gbps DFMA‐PON integrated system using fiber and free space optics (FSO) link is presented in this paper. Results depict that maximum FSO channel range can be attained up to 2600 m together with 50 km fiber range under weak‐to‐strong turbulent, haze, rain, fog, and snow conditions. Besides, faithful fiber reach of 200 km can be obtained with fixed 100 m FSO distance at receiver sensitivity of −17.2 dBm and 1.5 dB power penalty. System can support 230 numbers end units at high optical signal to noise ratio of 29–88 dB with 50–200 Gbps throughput, together with high split ratio of 256 to −3.2 dB high gain as well as 2 dB noise figure. In addition, the comparative analysis with the previous work reveals that the proposed architecture offers optimum results than existing PONs. This system helps to enhance the disaster resilience with high network security, reliability, and survivability of 5G based networks.

Abstract Underwater optical wireless communication (UOWC) is a compelling technology for a small, high-speed, and cost-effective underwater communication solution due to its low latency, high bandwidth, and enhanced security attributes. UWOC is a widely accepted technology in several maritime industrial services, significantly contributing to the early detection of floods, tsunamis, natural calamities, real-time data streaming, and military/naval tactical operations. Thus, in this work, a comprehensive review on UWOC systems is studied considering the impact of path loss owing to water turbulence, misalignment, and attenuation effects. A deep study of existing work, its architecture, challenges, applications, and future scope is illustrated. This study realized that UWOC scenarios can be regarded as a substitute to fulfill the need of high throughput and huge data communications like imaging, video transmission, real-time, high-speed sensor networks, etc.

Abstract A mode division multiplexing (MDM)-based free space optics (FSO) system is considered as a potential contender to offer an ultra-high capacity wireless connection. Also, polarization division multiplexing (PDM) technique is extensively used in an FSO system to tackle the costing issue in the multiservice providers’ scenario. Thus, a PDM/MDM-FSO system using orbital angular momentum (OAM) beams for 128 users is proposed to enhance the spectral efficiency as well system capacity. OAM [0, 0] and OAM [1, 0] modes are operated under the severe climate conditions. The results exhibit that the system offers maximum FSO range of 3,300 m at 32 × 4 × 40 Gbps transmission rate under very clear, light rain, and haze atmospheric conditions. Besides, for acceptable quality factor of value 6, received power of −16 to −13 dBm is obtained for all operating modes and polarization beams under very clear condition over 2,000 m range. It is also seen that maximum beam divergence of 4.3–7 mrad can be sustained with the polarized OAM beams. As compared to existing works, this work indicates best performance in terms of link capacity, spectral efficiency, and data rate.

Abstract Satellite-based free-space optical (FSO) communication has emerged as a transformative paradigm, offering spectrum-efficient connectivity with ultra-high bandwidth to support bandwidth-intensive applications and enable global coverage. As compared to the conventional RF systems, FSO provides distinct advantages such as high data rates, interference immunity, and license-free operation. Despite its unique characteristics like narrow optical beams, dynamic orbital environments, and increasing architectural complexity, there exist diverse security vulnerabilities across multiple protocol layers. In this paper, a comprehensive review on the security issues in satellite FSO systems, spanning the physical, data link, and network layers is provided. Critical threats and vulnerabilities at each layer are analyzed, followed by a discussion of state-of-the-art countermeasures, including physical-layer security mechanisms, adaptive beam control, advanced cryptographic schemes, quantum key distribution, and AI-driven anomaly detection. Key challenges, such as scalability, trust management, atmospheric impairments, and post-quantum security, are also highlighted as pressing concerns for future FSO networks. Furthermore, the chapter offers insights and design recommendations for developing intelligent, secure, and resilient satellite-based FSO communication infrastructures capable of addressing evolving cyber security threats while maintaining high performance.

Abstract A new method for addressing the increasing needs for bandwidth is mode division multiplexing (MDM). Its use in spatial modes for free-space optical (FSO) communication has produced encouraging outcomes. In order to increase data capacity, this study examines an MDM-FSO system that makes use of Hermite–Gaussian and Laguerre–Gaussian modes, namely HG[0, 0], HG[0, 1], LG[0, 0], and LG[0, 1]. Polarization multiplexing is also taken into consideration to enhance performance even more. According to simulation results, the HG[0, 1] mode allows for a maximum link range of 380–570 m in a variety of weather scenarios, including light fog, rain, mist, dry snow, and weak turbulence. It is noteworthy that the LG[0, 0] mode outperforms LG[0, 1] and HG[0, 1] at 160 Gbps data speeds. Under the gamma–gamma channel model, the system maintains a maximum spot size of 5–10.7 µm under various environmental circumstances. Additionally, it can accommodate a maximum divergence angle of less than 0.5 mrad in strong turbulence and 3 mrad in weak turbulence. The suggested MDM-FSO design is a viable contender for next-generation optical wireless communication systems because to its improved spectrum efficiency, high-speed data transmission, and increased capacity when compared to current FSO systems.

SummaryThis work presents the bidirectional and symmetric 40 Gbps wheel architecture comprising 16 channels‐based bidirectional hybrid next generation passive optical network with free space optics (NGPON/FSO) system using mode division multiplexing (MDM) scheme. The system incorporates a low‐cost high bandwidth and integrated time and wavelength division multiplexing with orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (TWDM‐OFDM) for data transmission over mixed fiber‐FSO links to various end users at donut modes 0 and 1. This system enhances the fifth generation (5G)‐based networks reliability, survivability, and flexibility, especially in rural places where the core fiber link may be damaged/destroyed under diverse turbulent and weather conditions. The obtained results depict the faithful multimode fiber range of 100 km with fixed FSO range of 100 m at −17 dBm receiver sensitivity and low power penalty of 0.2 dB at 10−9 bit error rate. Maximum FSO range of 2800 m under weak‐to‐strong Gamma‐Gamma turbulence and the effect of fog, rain, snow, and snow with rain can be obtained successfully with fixed 50 km fiber length. Also, the proposed wheel architecture provides superior performance over hybrid ring‐mesh architecture with high split ratio of 1:64. Moreover, the system can sustain up to 70 remote nodes at symmetric 10 Gbps throughput providing high gain, high optical signal‐to‐noise ratio, and low noise figure. The comparative literature work also reveals that the proposed architecture offers high bandwidth, security, long‐reach, and cost‐effectiveness in 5G fronthaul/backhaul networks.
