Abstract:

The general relations characterizing the free-space communication systems were discussed and communication systems based on ultrahigh frequency and light-wave region were compared. The comparative parameters of the two systems were evaluated and it was concluded that the principal system-theoretical advantage of the light-wave region system is the availability of highly collimated bundles of rays.
