A Kalman filter based synchronization scheme for telescope array receivers in deep-space optical communication links

In this paper, the impact of random synchronization errors on the performance of ground-based telescope array receivers for an inter-planetary optical deep-space communication (ODSC) link is investigated. An adaptive method based on Kalman filters is developed for the synchronization and combination of different telescope signals in the array. An end-to-end simulation platform for ODSC link bet...

Fiber coupling with adaptive optics for free-space optical communication

We describe an adaptive optical fiber coupling system for free-space optical communication comprising a microelectromechanical deformable mirror and a VLSI gradient descent controller for model-free performance optimization. A comparison of Strehl ratio maximization with direct model-free coupling efficiency optimization revealed an advantage of the latter method.

Reformulating Kalman Filter Based Optimal Dynamic Coverage Control

Our objective in this paper is to examine the problem formulation of one particular published result, make logical extensions, and consider the question of whether we should obtain solutions under such a formulation, or pursue alternative formulations. The problem considered in “A Kalman Filter-Based Control Strategy for Dynamic Coverage Control” by I. I. Hussein is for a network of mobile sens...
