The effect of a wide-range background exposure on the sensitivity of a laser receiver with an iodine quantum filter (λ =1.315 μm) is theoretically investigated. The sensitivity of the laser receiver is shown to be only about 12% less than the quantum limit when detecting optical signals against the background of the solar disk. It is also shown that in the case where the radiance temperature of a...
