Abstract

Free space laser communication is recognized as one of the top 10 pop telecom technologies in 2001. This paper mainly introduces the composition of free space laser communication system and its technical advantages, presents a new integrative transceiver, optical antenna separated from the electronical components structure. The paper also summarizes and analyses how the atmosphere, weather and platform’s sway or vibration affect the communication, presents a dynamic acquisiton, pointing and tracking scheme including using helix-style subspace sacn to catch the target. FSO has a wide prospect of application.
