The average bit error rate (BER) and outage probability of circle polarization shift keying (CPOLSK) modulation in free-space optical (FSO) system operating under exponentiated Weibull (EW) distribution are studied. The closed expression of the average BER is derived by generalized Gauss–Laguerre polynomials. The analytical results show the relationship between the average BER and average signal to noise ratio (SNR) of CPOLSK modulation with the effect of aperture averaging under different turbulence strengths and it is compared with on–off keying (OOK) modulation. The relationship between the outage probability and normalized threshold SNR of CPOLSK modulation is studied as well. All the analytical results are verified by the Monte Carlo simulation.
