Abstract
Free space optics is necessary to align the optical axis of the laser beam with the center of receiver lens to perform broadband transmission. The authors propose the algorithm of laser beam direction adjustment by controlling laser beam spread. This paper conducts the computer simulations on laser beam emitted from the transmitter to evaluate the transferred beam radius with respect to tunable arrangement of lenses contained in the transmitter.
