Laser communication space terminal
The terminal is designed to organize a communication channel in the optical wavelength range between low-orbit and medium-orbit spacecraft.
Advantages of optical communication systems over radio systems:
- high speed of the transfer information (from 2 Gbit/second);
- low weight, dimensions and low power consumption;
- improved electromagnetic compatibility with any radio and optical systems;
- high noise immunity;
- secrecy of data transfer and impossibility of data interception.
Parameters
- Communication range
- 5 500 km
- Transfer speed
- from 2 to 40 Gbit/second
- The overview
- is a hemisphere
