Uplink satellite optical communication based on acousto-optic modulator

High-speed data transfer is becoming increasingly necessary for modern satellite communication systems. To address growing bandwidth demands, optical technologies are proposed. Here we investigate an approach to designing an uplink optical communication system based on the acousto-optic modulation scheme. The preliminary findings suggest the applicability of this strategy to provide reliable communications with data rates up to 2.4 Mbps and a bit error rate of 10^-9.
