Importance sampling simulation of free-space optical APD pulse position modulation receivers

Free-space optical communication technology has many advantages over RF/microwave in satellite and other spacecraft applications where reductions in size, weight and prime power requirements are combined with increased data transfer capability over long distances. Ultimately, the design and implemen...
