Due to recent advances in laser satellite communications technology, free-space optical
(FSO) links are presented as an ideal alternative to the conventional radio frequency (RF) …

Future spacecraft will require a paradigm shift in the way information is transmitted, in light of
the continuous increase in the amount of data requiring space links. Current radio-frequency …

Optical dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) can provide multiple Tbit/s
throughput in the future geostationary satellite communications. In this letter, the proof-of …

Optical technologies are extremely competitive candidates to achieve very-high throughput
links between ground and GEO satellites; however, their feasibility relies on the ability to …

Future spacecraft will require a paradigm shift in the way the information is transmitted due
to the continuous increase in the amount of data requiring space links. Current …

Binary phase-shift keying optical transmission in the C-band with coherent intradyne
reception is demonstrated over a long-range (10.45 km) link through the atmosphere. The …

High capacity GEO-Feeder optical links are very promising but constitute a real challenge for
the whole transmission chain. The modeling and mitigation of turbulence effects is a …

High throughput ground to GEO satellite telecommunication systems will require very
capacitive links for the uplink. When diffraction limited, a few optical Watts per channel are …

We analytically derive the outage probability (OP) estimation of a ground-to-satellite pre-
amplified free-space optical (FSO) link. Our derivations analysis, for the first time, takes into …

Optical feeder links (OFL) are expected to become part of future Very High Throughput
Satellite (VHTS) systems in response to the growing demand for higher capacity and lower …
