Backgound:HODOYOSHI Project
JapaneseHODOYOHI= Reasonable Reliability Engineering to develop series of 50kg Satellite. Project initiated by Prof. Nakasuga, Tokyo Univ. in 2009 Sub-Theme: LEO-GEO-GND High bandwidth Optical Communication Technology Tohoku Univ. and NICT collaboration work on No.2 satellite of the project called RISESAT Optical Communication High Date rate with small resources No license needed Highly accurate pointing control needed Poor availability to GND depending on weather condition Best means for satellite-satellite Communication However, Direct link to GND the first step and possible mitigation by site diversity Tohoku Univ.

Motivation: Site diversity ­Views in the futureSLR stations as down link sites in the world,

J.Degnan, IWLR, SanFernando, Spain,2004

Synergy of two applications


We SLRs know and capable of:
· Telescope and gimbal accurate enough to ATP to the communication satellite. · How to share wavelength communication beam and ranging beams. · (Too) accurate time and frequency source and reference frame to do optical communication. · Providing communication satellite with beacon at the same time of ranging and/or Communication satellite provided beacon as Adaptic Optics point source to stabilize communication channel.


Recent Example of Laser Comm. Development using SLR station: UPLINK using kHz Laser

Experience of Optical Communication OICETS 2006-2009 by NICT/JAXA
· Total of 50 Experiment 37% Successful tracking passes with a maximum duration about 6 minutes · Footprint of the laser beam: only ~6 m (distance 1000 km)
Downlink laser beam Uplink laser beam Wavelength 800nm/850nm

El = 33 deg (max)

What is VSOTA ?
· VSOTA=Very Small Optical Transmitter for component validation MOTIVATION: Opportunity of space validation on our road map. A simple light-weight space optical communication terminal using parts for SOTA(Small Optical Transponder) components which NICT has been developed for years. The experiment using optical ground station heritage of experience of OICETS in which the same telescope used by SLR. Launch : Scheduled in Fiscal 2013.
