Semiconductor Lasers For Space Beacons And Communications

SPIE Proceedings, 1989
Semiconductor lasers have been packaged and qualified for various applications in space. In this paper we discuss two subsystems, both of which will be launched shortly. The first subsystem employs a partially coherent semiconductor laser array coupled to an optical fiber, and monitored by a photo-diode.

Laser Communications in Space - Applications and Systems

LEOS 2007 - IEEE Lasers and Electro-Optics Society Annual Meeting Conference Proceedings, 2007
Laser communication terminals are now on the verge of becoming standard equipment for data relay applications in space. The data return of future deep-space missions can also be significantly improved with optical communications, using technology that is readily available.

Free space satellite laser communication

2000 Digest of the LEOS Summer Topical Meetings. Electronic-Enhanced Optics. Optical Sensing in Semiconductor Manufacturing. Electro-Optics in Space. Broadband Optical Networks (Cat. No.00TH8497), 2002
I present applications of satellite laser communications. Free space optical communication between satellites networked together can make possible high speed communication between different places on the Earth. The advantages of an optical communication system instead of a microwave communication system in free space are: 1) smaller size and weight, 2)
