Abstract
Oriented to the point-to-multipoint free space optical communication (FSO) scenarios, this paper analyzes the micro-mirror array and phased array-type optical intelligent reflecting surface (OIRS) in terms of control mode, power efficiency, and beam splitting. We build the physical models of the two types of OIRSs. Based on the models, the closed form solution of OIRSs’ output power density distribution and power efficiency, along with their control algorithms have been derived. Then we propose the algorithms of beam splitting and multi-beam power allocation for two types of OIRSs. The channel fading in FSO system and the comparison of two types of OIRSs in actual systems are discussed according to the analytical results. Simulations and experiments are both presented to verify the feasibility of models and algorithms.
