Abstract:
Apparatus for and method of transmitting an optical signal by a Free Space Optical, FSO, communication system, the method comprising: transmitting, by an optical signal transmitter ( 104 ), an optical signal ( 700 ) into at least part of a volume of an optical medium ( 302 ); and controlling, by a controller, the optical signal transmitter ( 104 ), to scan the at least part of the volume ( 302 ) using the optical signal ( 700 ) in a sequence of non-overlapping loops ( 704, 708 ). The sequence of non-overlapping loops ( 704, 708 ) may be a sequence of non-overlapping, concentric circular loops.

Claim (Index 18):
The FSO communication system according to  claim 17 , wherein:\n the sequence of non-overlapping loops is a sequence of non-overlapping, concentric circular loops; and the controller is further configured to scan the at least part of the volume by repeating at least part of one or more of the loops at least twice.
