This paper focus on the employment of partial coherent beam (PCB) in free space optical communication to reduce the flux variance effects in the system. The implementation of PCB in the free space optical system is significantly able to reduce the flux variance effect. The reduction of the flux variance effect by using PCB in free space optical communication by using Gamma-Gamma distribution is presented in this paper. The analysis result shows that the FSO system with PCB have an improved in performance compares with FSO system without PCB implemented on it as it capable to decrease the flux variance and scintillation index. This can help FSO system to encounter with severe turbulence effect for optimum operation.
