dc.description.abstractWide area (such as 2pi steradian) coverage transmit-receive lasercom sub-system is proposed. The lasercom subsystem design utilizes recently proposed new beam scanning approach called Multiplexed Optical Scanner Technology (MOST) that promises high-speed reconfiguration, low power consumption, large aperture, and wide coverage desired for agile, low cost, and easy to install free-space optical link system. The stringent sub-system goals are met by introducing the concept of "Multiplexing" at both the scanner interconnection level and the light property level. The scanner interconnections can be parallel or serial or both. The light properties that can be multiplexed include polarization, time, wavelength, space, and spatial codes. Manipulating the mentioned parameters of light, various multiplexed optical scanners (MOSs) can be realized. The highly sought after lasercom sub-system design will consist of two or more MOSs combined together in a smart fashion.Wide area (such as 2pi steradian) coverage transmit-receive lasercom sub-system is proposed.
