Abstract:

Free-space optical communication refers to a communication technology for laser transmission in free space. Combined with the convenience and mobility of wireless communication, it uses the band and technology of optical fiber communication to solve the transmission problem due to geographical terrain restrictions or temporary communication needs. This paper introduces the characteristics of terrestrial free-space optical communication technology, and provides some commercial applications of this technology.

Key words: free-space optical communication, optical fiber communication, wireless communication, terrestrial backhaul application
