Interconnecting university networks using a full-duplex FSO system using coherent detection and polarization-division multiplexing: Design and simulation

In this paper the design and simulation results of a full-duplex FSO communication link (500 meters) at 800 Mbps with coherent detection and polarization multiplexing is presented. In order to use a single optical system in the full-duplex scheme, subsystems of transmitter and receiver in each location was used.
