Performance Analysis of Relaying FSO System over $$\mathcal {M}$$ M -Distributed Turbulent Channel with Variable Gain AF Protocol

In this work, the performance of an all optical relaying free space optical (FSO) system over Malaga (\(\mathcal {M}\))-distributed turbulent channel is analyzed with variable gain amplify and forward (AF) protocol. For the relay system, the approximate cumulative distribution function (CDF) expression of the output signal to noise ratio (SNR) is derived and corresponding outage probability, channel capacity and asymptotic bit error rate (BER) are analyzed for different modulation schemes in the presence of pointing errors.
