Design and experimental verification of integrated laser communication terminal in space-ground integrated information network: Invited Paper

Abstract

The space-based integrated information network is composed of space-based backbone network, space-based access network and ground-based node network. It is interconnected with the ground Internet and mobile communication network to build a “ global coverage, on-demand access, on-demand service, safe and reliable ” space-based integrated information network system. As an important part of the system, the space-ground laser communication equipment is faced with many problems, such as the integration of multiple modulation systems and the location of different places. In this paper, the related problems are analyzed and verified by experiments. The results show that the system works at 1550nm wavelength, adopts coherent communication system and IM/DD communication system, coherent communication system supports BPSK, QPSK and DPSK modulation format, IM/DD communication system adopts OOK modulation format, the communication rate reaches 5Gbps under the condition of 1E-9 bit error rate.
