Modeling and simulating the atmosphere in a controlled environment has been a study of interest to
scientists for decades. The development of new technologies allows scientists to perform this task in a more realistic
and controlled environment and provides a powerful tool for the study and better understanding of the propagation
of light through the atmosphere. Technologies like Free-space laser communications (FSLC) and/or studies on light
propagation through the atmosphere are areas which constantly benefit from breakthroughs in the development of
atmospheric turbulence simulators. In this paper we present the results of the implementation of a phase only spatial
light modulator (SLM) as an atmospheric turbulence simulator at the Short-Wave Infra-Red (SWIR) regime and its
use with a FSLC system.
