Abstract
Free-space optics (FSO) communication has received much attention in recent years as a cost-effective, license-free, and wide-bandwidth access technique for high data rate applications. The performance of FSO communication, however, severely suffers from turbulence caused by atmospheric conditions. Multiple photodetectors can be placed at the receiver to mitigate the turbulence and exploit the advantages of spatial diversity combining. In this paper, we analyze the bit error rate (BER) performance of an FSO communication system employing binary phase-shift keying with additive non-Gaussian noise over negative exponential distributed atmospheric turbulence and spatial diversity at the receiver. The Laplace distribution is used to model the non-Gaussian impulsive noise. We consider the case when perfect channel state information is available at the receiver for implementation of coherent detection. Analytical expressions for the BER of a single channel receiver as well as that of a diversity combining receiver using selection combining, dual-diversity equal-gain combining, and maximal-ratio combining are derived. The derived analytical expressions are verified by simulation results.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
