Abstract

A study of beam wander and scintillation loss factors has been carried out in several locations at distances from 200 m to 1300 m. Three different types of transmitters (LED, SH laser and VCSEL) were investigated and compared for their susceptibility to atmospheric turbulence under similar conditions.
