The present disclosure provides a free space optical communication system comprising a superluminescent light emitting diode (SLED) with an ultrashort coherence length configured to generate a broadband beam of light, a modulator configured to modulate the broadband beam of light to encode data and generate a modulated beam of light, a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) configured to amplify the modulated beam of light to generate an amplified beam of light, wherein the SOA has a bandwidth of at least 25, 50, or 100 nanometers, and an output configured to transmit the amplified beam of light through a variably refractive medium. The system enables high-bandwidth optical communication with improved performance in atmospheric turbulence.
