Abstract
A scalable front end system for a high speed free space optical (FSO) communication system includes multiple optical array assemblies. Each optical array assembly includes an optical array, an angle sensor, a steering system and a base. The multiple optical array assemblies are coupled to respective electro-optic modulators, which in turn are coupled to a splitter, all disposed within an enclosure with one input/output connection.
