Passive solar reflector satellite revisited [PDF]

open access: yes, 1980
Passive light weight reflectors in space which direct the incident solar energy to a specified location on the Earth surface are proposed as an alternative system for the solar power satellite to overcome conversion losses and to avoid the need for ...

How to implement decoy-state quantum key distribution for a satellite uplink with 50 dB channel loss

open access: yes, 2011
Quantum key distribution (QKD) takes advantage of fundamental properties of quantum physics to allow two distant parties to share a secret key; however, QKD is hampered by a distance limitation of a few hundred kilometers on earth.

Analysis of the Dihedral Corner Reflector’s RCS Features in Multi-Resource SAR

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Artificial corner reflectors are widely used in the vegetated landslide for time series InSAR monitoring due to their permanent scattering features. This paper investigated the RCS features of a novel dihedral CR under multi-resource SAR datasets. An RCS
