Abstract Free Space Optical (FSO) communication has evolved as a feasible technique for wireless implementations which offers higher bandwidth capacities over various wavelengths and refers to the transmission of modulated visible beams through atmosphere in order to communicate. Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) is a technology that multiplexes numerous carrier signals onto single fiber using nonidentical wavelengths and enables the efficiency of bandwidth and expanded data rate. Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) is implemented to improve the quality and performance of free space optical communication in various atmospheric conditions. In this paper, a WDM-based FSO communication system is being implemented that benefits from MIMO which receives multiple copies of the signal at receiver that are independent and analyzed for various streams of data in MIMO i.e. 2 × 2, 4 × 4, 8 × 8. Various factors like BER, Quality Factor are analyzed for the WDM-based FSO communication with MIMO using the OptiSystem for various data streams of MIMO under different atmospheric conditions.
