The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Monte-Carlo-based channel characterization for underwater optical communication systems (2013, methodology): “At the receiver, after photo-detection, the photo-current is converted to a voltage by a trans-impedance circuitry with a resistance R = 1KΩ, and the resulting signal is low-pass filtered to limit the thermal noise variance [38].”
Survey on Free Space Optical Communication: A Communication Theory Perspective (2014, background): “However, RIN has usually a negligible effect on the receiver performance [139].”
Underwater Optical Wireless Communications, Networking, and Localization: A Survey (2018, background): “nsmitter noise caused by the ﬂuctuations of the light intensity. Transmitter noise is generally modeled by laser relative noise [151] which is shown to have a minor effect on the receiver performance [152]. Thermal noise is generally modeled as a zero-mean Gaussian random process which results from ”
