What is it about?

The satellite-to-ground laser communication link plays a crucial role in addressing the technical bottleneck of high-speed information transmission between satellite and ground networks. However, the impact of atmospheric channel conditions poses challenges to the link performance. To overcome these challenges, this paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the characteristics and influencing factors of the satellite-to-ground laser communication link.

Why is it important?

It summarizes methods for optimizing the transmission performance of the link and proposes approaches for optimizing, monitoring, and predicting the link performance through factors such as the optimization of ground station quantity and location, link availability, link transmission quality, and adaptive coding and modulation. These methods enable the optimization of the transmission performance of the satellite-to-ground laser communication link, thus significantly contributing to the realization of high-speed and reliable laser communication between satellite and ground networks.

Perspectives

The integration of ground networks and satellite networks is considered the future direction of network development, providing seamless global access and services for ground users [1]. High-speed, secure, and reliable satellite-ground backbone link transmission is a key requirement for achieving the integration of ground and satellite networks. Space laser communication is a wireless communication technology that utilizes optical waves as carriers. It offers advantages such as high data rates, large capacity, strong anti-interference capabilities, and high security, which are difficult to achieve with traditional microwave communication.
