Free Space Optics: Current Applications and Future Challenges
FSO is a communication system where free space acts as medium between transceivers and they should be in LOS for successful transmission of optical signal. Medium can be air, outer space, or vacuum.

Adaptive free space optic system based on visibility detector to overcome atmospheric attenuation
Free space optics (FSO) provides high data rate by allowing transmission of signal through atmosphere. FSO is affected by different weather conditions. The atmospheric attenuation is caused by two main factors; absorption and scattering.
