size and power consumption of the Free-Space Optical(FSO)communications system for easy operation and maintenance
most common FSO systems use Intensity Modulation and Direct Detection(IM/DD).This paper proposes a signal detection method based on the K- mean algorithm
and compares it with classical algorithms in terms of implementation complexity
robustness and error performance.The results show that when the data block is longer than 1 000
the performance of the proposed method can approach that of the ideal receiver.
