Why Laser Communication?
Power
◦ LC directed at target.
◦ Much less transmission power required.
◦ Less free space power loss.
Size / Weight
◦ LC antenna << RF antenna.
Security
◦ LC more secure than RF
- low divergence laser beam.

FSO
line-of-sight technology.
uses LASERS and Photo detectors.
optical connections between two
points—without the fiber.
Scattering:
Safety:
- technology uses lasers for
transmission.
Scintillation:
- fluctuations in signal amplitude.
- heated air from the earth or man
made devices.
Summary
Basic principle of laser action
discussed.
Laser communication system
used in satellite
communication.
Provide higher data rates , high
security & lesser antenna size.
FSO used for lesser link length ~
4km.
FSO links –designed carefully due
