Preface
In recent years, the technology of optical communication has gained importance due to high bandwidth and data rate requirements. This book focuses on free-space optical (FSO) communication that is capable of providing cable-free communication at very high data rates (up to Gbps). Unlike radio frequency communication that has restricted bandwidth due to its limited spectrum availability and interference, FSO communication has license-free spectrum as of now. This technology finds its application in terrestrial links, deep space/inter-satellite links, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), high-altitude platforms (HAPs), and uplink and downlink between space platform, aircrafts, and other ground- based fixed/mobile terminals. It provides good privacy with flexible interconnection through a distributed or centralized communication syste
