Assessment of Practical Satellite Quantum Key Distribution Architectures for Current and Near‐Future Missions

open access: yesInternational Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 164-192, May/June 2025.
ABSTRACT Quantum key distribution (QKD) allows the generation of cryptographic keys beyond the computational hardness paradigm and is befitting for secure data transmission requiring long‐term security. The communication distance of fiber‐based QKD, however, is limited to a few hundred kilometers due to the exponential scaling of signal attenuation ...

Statistics of Received Power Time Series for Optical LEO Satellite Uplinks

open access: yesInternational Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 251-263, May/June 2025.
ABSTRACT In free‐space optical satellite communications, a transmitted optical signal is perturbed by pointing inaccuracies and through the atmosphere's index‐of‐refraction turbulence. This leads to signal fluctuations and power fading when detected by a receiver. Knowledge of these signal instability statistics is advantageous for the design of robust

In Situ Analysis of Jupiter's Broadband Kilometric Auroral Radio Emissions With Juno

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 9, 16 May 2025.
Abstract Among the zoo of Jovian auroral radio emissions, the broadband kilometric (bKOM) component has been the least studied. Taking advantage of Juno in situ measurements within the auroral regions, we surveyed the Juno/Waves radio observations over the 60 first orbits to identify 7 bKOM source candidates.

Monitoring and Maintaining Laser Surface Texture Quality Based on Acoustic and Optical Process Emissions during Direct Laser Interference Patterning

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 27, Issue 9, May 2025.
Acoustic emissions during direct laser interference patterning are shown to strongly correlate with surface texture depth. By implementing a closed‐loop control system utilizing acoustic feedback, consistent microstructures with uniform depth are achieved despite laser power fluctuations.
