Optical space communication apparatus

摘要

An optical space communication apparatus for propagating a beam of light through free space to thereby effect communication includes a transmitting device for transmitting a first optical signal converted into a beam of light, a expanse angle varying device for varying the angle of expanse of the beam of light into which the first optical signal has been converted, a level varying device for varying the output level of the first optical signal, a control device for controlling the expanse angle varying device and the level varying device, and a receiving device for receiving a second optical signal converted into a beam of light.
