Free-space optics (FSO)
Free-space optics (FSO) is a technology that uses light propagating in free space to transmit data for telecommunications or computer networking. FSO systems use lasers or highly coherent light from light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to transmit information over a line-of-sight path through the atmosphere, typically 10–20 kilometers (6.2–12.4 miles). The data is usually modulated onto a … Read more
