STUDY AND INVESTIGATION OF ACQUISITION AND TRACKING OF OPTICAL COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS

Abstract

Results are presented concerning the study and investigation of acquisition and tracking for two hypothetical, optical, space communications links. The specific items cover work done on servo tracking loop design, the merits of communication between earth orbiting equatorial satellites, acquisition of false targets, and acquisition and tracking sensitivity.
