Analysis of the Effects of Environment on the Performance of Free Space Earth-to-Satellite Optical Link in Malaysia

Free Space Optics (FSO) is a promising optical technology that has a great chance to compliment the traditional wireless communications especially for applying this technology to satellite. It offers some inherent advantages compared to RF such as smaller telescopes, low power consumption, no freque...
