| Abstract | This survey article discusses the revolutions of wireless communication technologies right from the prehistoric man's fire signals to today's space optical communications. A brief description of evaluations of communication technologies from the ancient Greece to today's mature telecommunication fields is discussed in this review paper. Principle, significance, demonstration and development of free space optical (FSO) communication technology over different decades are discussed. Major FSO channel limitations, temporal and spatial challenges of FSO communication system and their state-of-art mitigation techniques are presented. Classical quantitative analysis of reliability of FSO communication, developments on radio over FSO (RoFSO) and hybrid FSO/RF systems are also explained. Advanced developments of FSO communication techniques such as optical free space wavelength division multiplexing (WDM), sub-carrier multiplexing (SCM), worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX), visible light communications (VLC) and vehicular visible light communications (VVLC) are reported. Deep space optical communication systems and next generation FSO wireless terrestrial/global network architecture are summarised. Research challenges of FSO systems for internet of things/everything (IoT/IoE), 5G communication, mobile-network, terahertz spectrum, quantum communication and underwater optical applications are presented. Based on the review, we outlined the challenges that need to be addressed in near-future researches to realize full potential FSO communication systems. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
