The key towards our vision is the use of FSO technology which
in contrast to traditional wireless of RF technologies has lower
interference footprint, can support longer range and offers higher
bandwidth.

BLOCK DIAGRAM EXPLANATION
Source generates the information that has to be communicated over the optical wireless system.
The modulator, Using different modulation techniques, modulates the data for transmission.
The optical light source can be of two types- Light Emitting Diode (LED) or Laser Diode (LD).
The transmitter and receiver are configured to deliver and receive optical signals propagating in free space.
Transmitter converts incoming electrical signal from driver circuit into optical form to be transmitted over the
atmospheric channel.
Receiver side contains a photo detector which converts the received optical signal to electrical form again which can
then be amplified or processed.
Received signal is demodulated and produced in the desired form to the destination.
FSO ARCHITECTURE
Low bit error rates (BER) and high bit rate speed rates
Full duplex operation
Secure data
Scintillation: Heated air rising from the earth or man-made devices such as heating ducts create temperature variations among
different air pockets. This can cause fluctuations in signal amplitude which leads to “image dancing” at the FSO- based receiver end.
The scintillation affects on FSO can be tackled by multi-beam systems approach exploiting multiple regions of space-this approach is
called as spatial diversity.
