A Survey on Acquisition, Tracking, and Pointing Mechanisms for Mobile Free-Space Optical Communications (2018, background): “Employing a narrow beam increases the received power density and improves link margin under diverse weather conditions, but it requires a precise alignment between a pair of communicating transceivers because of the small footprint of the beam at the receiver [33]–[37].”
A Survey of Underwater Optical Wireless Communications (2017, background): “This system is regarded as the first optoelectronic communication system in the world [1], [2].”
Survey on Free Space Optical Communication: A Communication Theory Perspective (2014, background): “the emergence of visible light communication (VLC) products [17]–[23], the market has begun to show future promise [24],”
BPSK Subcarrier Intensity Modulated Free-Space Optical Communications in Atmospheric Turbulence (2009, background): “9% availability), the FSO range is only limited to around 500 m [2], [3] where sufficient link margin is available.”
