Scintillation Analysis of a 400-Gb/s Coherent FSO Feeder-Link for GEO Satellite Downlink-Like Transmission
In this letter, we experimentally demonstrate 400 Gbps coherent transmission over a turbulent free-space optical (FSO) channel for optical feeder links using a commercially available fiber-optimized coherent transponder. Controlled atmospheric turbulence (AT) with a refractive-index structure parameter up to $C_{n}^{2}...
