Abstract
In optical wireless communications, a channel-matched adaptive coherent
receiver may be implemented using an array of receive apertures. After atmospheric
channel fading estimation, several replicas of a message received through
the atmosphere are combined. As an alternative to training-based channel estimation,
we analyze the performance of sequential techniques for direct optimization
of multi-aperture array receivers in free-space coherent laser communications.
