Abstract To circumvent the concerns of conventional communication media like optical fibers in which the installation of optical fibers require significant investment for infrastructure and radio frequency technology which being licensed spectrum requires huge investment to utilize few bands from restricted spectrum, FSO comes to rescue. Because of the number of prime advantages of FSO over other communication media, it is a viable option to provide plentiful, affordable and reliable connectivity by delivering high-bit-rate line-of-sight transmissions over lengthy distances of up to several kilometers. And hence improving the quality of life for those who live in isolated and rural areas. An overview of Free Space Optical communication and recent developments in FSO are presented in this paper.
