In telecommunications, Free Space Optics (FSO) is an optical communication technology that uses light propagating in free space to transmit data between two points. The technology is useful where the physical connections by the means of fibre optic cables are impractical due to high costs or other considerations.
"Free space" means air, outer space, vacuum, or something similar. It is the opposite of a fibre optic cable or transmission line.

FSO systems can function over distances of several kilometres.

FSO is a line-of-sight technology, which enables optical transmission up to 2.5 Gbps of data, voice and video communications.
Free space optics require light, which can be focused by using either light emitting diodes (LED) or LASERS.

As long as there is a clear line of sight between the source and the destination and enough transmitter power, communication is possible virtually at the speed of light.
FSO works on the same basic principle as infrared television remote controls, wireless keyboards or wireless palm devices.

ORIGIN OF FSOORIGIN OF FSOThis mode of communication was first
used in the 8th century by the Greeks. They used fire as the light source ,the atmosphere as the transmission medium and human eye as receiver.
Optical wireless communication was used by Alexander Graham Bell in the late 19th century even before his telephone.
Bell FSO experiment converted voice sounds to telephone signals and transmitted them between receivers through free air space along a beam of light for a distance of some 600 feet, this was later called PHOTOPHONE.

THE TECHNOLOGY OF FSOTHE TECHNOLOGY OF FSO An FSO unit consists of an optical
transceiver with a laser transmitter and a receiver to provide full duplex (bi-directional) capability.
Each FSO unit uses a high power optical source ( laser ) plus a lens that transmits light through the atmosphere to another lens receiving information.
The receiving lens connects to a high sensitivity receiver via optical fiber.

Two FSO units can take the optical connectivity to a maximum of 4kms.

WORKING OF FSO WORKING OF FSO SYSTEMSYSTEMOptical systems work in the infrared or
near infrared region of light.
The infrared carrier used for transmitting the signal is generated either by a high power LED or a laser diode. Two parallel beams are used, one for transmission and one for reception, taking a standard data, voice or video signal, converting it to a digital format and transmitting it through free space.
![Page 12: Free space optics by Mayank Awasthi](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081422/5561b002d8b42ae9708b548e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Today’s modern laser system provide network connectivity at speed of 622 Mega bits/sec and beyond with total reliability.
The beams are kept very narrow to ensure that it does not interfere with other FSO beams. The receive detectors are either PIN diodes or avalanche photodiodes.
The FSO transmits invisible eye safe light beams from transmitter to the receiver using high power infrared lasers in the tera hertz spectrum.

2. Wireless Service Provider
Unlike microwave or fiber, deployment of FSO does not require spectrum licensing, physical disruption to a location, or government zoning approvals. Carriers are free to grow their business.

LIMITATIONS OF FSOLIMITATIONS OF FSO As the medium is air and the light pass
through it, some environmental challenges are inevitable.
1.FOG : Fog substantially attenuates visible radiation, and it has a similar affect on the near-infrared wavelengths that are employed in FSO systems.
Fog can be countered by a network design with short FSO link distances. FSO installation in foggy cities like san Francisco have successfully achieved carrier-class reliability.

2. PHYSICAL OBSTRUCTIONS: Flying birds can temporarily block a single beam, but this tends to cause only short interruptions and transmissions are easily and automatically re-assumed.
3. SCINTILLATION: Scintillation refers the variations in light intensity caused by atmospheric turbulence. Such turbulence may be caused by wind and temperature gradients which results in air pockets of varying diversity act as prisms or lenses with time varying properties.

4. SCATTERING: In scattering there is no loss of energy, only a directional redistribution of energy which may cause reduction in beam intensity for longer distance.
