Comparison of direct and heterodyne detection optical intersatellite communication links [PDF]

open access: yes
The performance of direct and heterodyne detection optical intersatellite communication links are evaluated and compared. It is shown that the performance of optical links is very sensitive to the pointing and tracking errors at the transmitter and ...

Efficient Uncertainty Quantification for Satellite Antenna Pointing: A GSA-PEM Framework Integrating Multi-Source Disturbances

open access: yesAerospace
Space-borne antenna pointing is affected by uncertain disturbances like satellite attitude, structural flexibility, and manufacturing/installation errors. Understanding the effect of these uncertainties is crucial for antenna performance.

The Annular Suspension and Pointing (ASP) system for space experiments and predicted pointing accuracies [PDF]

open access: yes
An annular suspension and pointing system consisting of pointing assemblies for coarse and vernier pointing is described. The first assembly is attached to a carrier spacecraft (e.g., the space shuttle) and consists of an azimuth gimbal and an elevation ...

CDMA RoFSO Links With Nonzero Boresight Pointing Errors Over M Turbulence Channels

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2018
Radio-on-Free-Space Optical systems constitute a very attractive option for interconnecting central base stations with remote antenna units. Nonetheless, the optical signal propagation through the atmosphere is tremendously affected by turbulence- and ...
