Abstract:
A free space optical communication system receiver ( 500 ) comprising: a central optical sensor ( 600 ); and a plurality of further optical sensors ( 601 - 604 ) disposed around a peripheral edge of the central optical sensor ( 600 ). The free space optical communication system receiver ( 500 ) may be coupled to means for moving the free space optical communication system receiver ( 500 ) relative to an incoming optical signal ( 510 ). A controller ( 508 ) may be configured to, using measurements of the incident optical signal ( 510 ) by the plurality of further optical sensors ( 601 - 604 ), control the means so as to move the free space optical communication system receiver ( 500 ) relative to the incident optical signal ( 510 ).

Claim (Index 12):
A method of receiving an optical signal, the method comprising:\n receiving an optical signal incident on a free space optical communication system receiver, the free space optical communication system receiver including\n a central optical sensor, and \n a plurality of further optical sensors disposed around a peripheral edge of the central optical sensor; \n measuring, by one or more of the further optical sensors, at least a portion of the incident optical signal; and moving the free space optical communication system receiver relative to the incident optical signal, based on the one or more measurements taken by the one or more of further optical sensors.
