| Abstract(in English) | We describe a laser communication demonstration experiment to be performed around the year 2003 between the exposed facility in the Japanese experimental module of International Space Station and a ground station. It is based on the technology for ground-based fiber optic communications and the adaptive optics which compensates atmospheric turbulence effect based on a real time feedback control. The bit-rate of the link from the Space Station to the ground station is 2.5 Gbps, which will demonstrate the capability of high speed optical downlink even from a manned spacecraft where vibrational environment is not suitable for very accurate tracking/pointing system required for laser communications. A preliminary observation of space debris will also be performed utilizing the tracking/pointing system for the laser communication. |
