Investigation and design of short-range free-space optical communication system for flight platforms

Abstract

I thank Dr Goh Cher Hiang for his support towards financing my degree and Miss Goh Lily for her administrative assistance rendered during the duration of the course. Without the support and assistance from them, DSO National Laboratories (DSO)/Satellite Engineering Centre (SEC) and Defence Science & Technology Agency (DSTA), my research would not have proceeded smoothly. I am especially grateful to Prof. Zhong Wende, my supervisor, for his invaluable guidance. This thesis would not have been possible without his effort and time spent on discussing my research work with me. His suggestions and insights allowed me to make progress on my research work. I also thank my family, who has always been my greatest source of encouragement and strength.
