Abstract:
The influence of the coherence degree of the transmitting beam on the bit error rate (BER) for free space optics (FSO) communication systems is investigated. It is found that for all types of propagation paths (horizontal, vertical or inclined), and various degrees of the turbulence strength there are the optimal value of the output power and the optimal degree of coherence of the optical transmitter beam defined by the Fried parameter. The optimal coherence degree can be determined by the minimum of BER.
