Abstract

It is hard to achieve low bit error rate (BER) and high-quality signals in free-space optical (FSO) communication systems due to atmospheric link interference. For the sake of seeking solutions, we proposed an experimental scheme of free-space laser communication based on middle-wave infrared (MWIR) and near infrared (NIR) for obtaining atmospheric transmission characteristic in 1 km turbulence path. Compared with NIR waveband, MWIR-based scheme is more suitable for atmospheric FSO communication since it owns higher anti-interference ability for atmospheric attenuation, turbulence and skylight background noise. The experimental results may offer a significant reference for FSO communication in atmosphere link.
