The past 30 years have seen significant improvements in this technique - a wireless communication solution for the current millennium - that offers an alternative to radio systems; a technique that could gain attractiveness due to recent concerns regarding the potential effects of radiofrequency waves on human health.The aim of this book is to look at the free space optics that are already used for the exchange of current information; its many benefits, such as incorporating chan 410 0$aISTE 606 $aWireless communication systems 606 $aOptical communications 615 0$aWireless communication systems. 615 0$aOptical communications. 676 $a621.382/7 700 $aBouchet$b Olivier$0953148 701 $aFavennec$b Pierre-Noe?l$01619811 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910821371003321 996 $aWireless optical telecommunications$93985421 997 $aUNINA
