Performance optimization of free-space optical communication protocols based on results from FSO demonstrations [PDF]
The mobile free-space optical channel mainly suffers from relatively long link outages, produced by short-term blockings of the line-of-sight (obstacles, clouds), pointing- and tracking-errors or deep signal-fades caused by index of refraction turbulence

Crosstalk Suppression in Structured Light Free-Space Optical Communication
Using space as an additional degree of freedom is one possible solution to cope with future bandwidth issues. In free-space optics (FSO), spatial multiplexing of structured light modes is limited by the impact of the atmospheric turbulence.
