The performance of optical wireless communication (OWC) links based on the spectral amplitude encoding (SAE) of a broad-band spatially partially coherent beam through atmospheric turbulence is analyzed. It has been found that the power efficiency of transmitters of OWC links based on the non-uniform SAE is higher than that based on the uniform SAE. Further, the spectrum division method for the non-uniform SAE of broad-band beams has been proposed. The non-uniform SAE of a broad-band spatially partially coherent beam is an effective method to reduce the performance degradation of OWC links caused by atmospheric turbulence.
