Abstract :
The potential use for optical wireless is quite high and is largely untapped in the aerospace industry. Consumer experience with TV remote controls has given the impression that optical wireless is limited-range, highly directional and low-data-rate, but the truth is that this technology is extremely powerful when properly implemented.
