Abstract :
We study the asymptotic outage probability of multiple-input multiple-output free-space optical communication with pulse-position modulation. In particular, we consider doubly stochastic scintillation models, lognormal-Rice and I-K distributions. First we consider the case when channel state information is available at the receiver only. Then we consider the case when it is also available at the transmitter.
