Optical technologies for communication satellite applications; Proceedings of the Meeting, Los Angeles, CA, Jan. 21, 22, 1986The present conference considers topics encompassing the fields of satellite communications technology, optical subsystems, transmitters and receivers, subsystems for pointing and tracking, onboard processing- and component-related technologies, fiber-optic distribution networks, and reliability-related considerations. Attention is given to lightwave technology in microwave systems, the status of CO2 laser technology and homodyne receiver concepts for communication satellite optical links, laser Doppler measurement techniques for spacecraft, fiber-optic gyros for space applications, integrated acoustooptic device modules for communication, signal processing and computing, radiation-hardened optoelectronic components, and radiation effects on fiber-optics.
