2. Satellite laser ranging - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellite_laser_ranging

   The laser pulse can also be reflected by the surface of a satellite without a retroreflector, which is used for tracking space debris. [1] Satellite laser ranging is a proven geodetic technique with significant potential for important contributions to scientific studies of the earth/atmosphere/ocean system. It is the most accurate technique ...

3. Free-space optical communication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-space_optical...

   On April 28, 2023, NASA and its partners achieved 200 gigabit per second (Gbit/s) throughput on a space-to-ground optical link between a satellite in orbit and Earth. This was achieved by the TeraByte InfraRed Delivery (TBIRD) system, mounted on NASA's Pathfinder Technology Demonstrator 3 (PTD-3) satellite. [33]

4. European Data Relay System - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Data_Relay_System

   The programme is similar to the American Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System that was set up to support the Space Shuttle—but EDRS is using a new generation Laser Communication Terminal (LCT) which carries data at a much larger bit rate: the laser terminal transmits 1.8 Gbit/s across 45,000 km (the distance of a LEO-GEO link), [1] while ...

6. Dazer Laser - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dazer_Laser

   Dazer Lasers use a "GreenStar Laser" (US Patent and Trademark Office provisional patent application no. 61/348,312), which is a diode-pumped solid-state (DPSS), 532 nm (green), Class IIIb laser that produces maximum power of over 750 mW without having to increase the same laser's size. [4]

7. Laser communication in space - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_communication_in_space

   Assuming available laser technology, and considering the divergence of the interferometric signals, the range for satellite-to-satellite communications has been estimated to be approximately 2,000 km (1,200 mi). [83] These estimates are applicable to an array of satellites orbiting the Earth.

8. Laser rangefinder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_rangefinder

   A long-range laser rangefinder is capable of measuring distance up to 20 km; mounted on a tripod with an angular mount. The resulting system also provides azimuth and elevation measurements. A laser rangefinder, also known as a laser telemeter, is a rangefinder that uses a laser beam to determine the distance to an object.
