High-Precision Light Spot Position Detection in Low SNR Condition Based on Quadrant Detector

In free space optical communications, long-distance transmission leads to the attenuation of beacon light, where we adopt a quadrant detector (QD) to receive the weak signal. However, the background light interferes so strongly that the output signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of QD is at a low level, whi...
