摘要: Optical signals are received from a free-space link by directing light onto plurality of microlenses and then through each the into respective single mode optical fiber (SMF). Light beams SMFs combined beam in one SMF. The is amplified with multi-wavelength amplifier attenuated variable attenuator. power gain attenuation attenuator controlled. directed optic communication system that optically coupled to
