Fast reconstruction and prediction of frozen flow turbulence based on structured Kalman filtering

Efficient and optimal prediction of frozen flow turbulence using the complete observation history of the wavefront sensor is an important issue in adaptive optics for large ground-based telescopes. At least for the sake of error budgeting and algorithm performance, the evaluation of an accurate estimate of the optimal performance of a particular...

Latency-Constrained Fading Mitigation for Coherent Optical Feeder Links based on Space-Time-Frequency Coding

Optical feeder links (OFLs) benefit from the vast amount of bandwidth available in the THz-regime of the electromagnetic spectrum, and can be considered as enablers for future terabit-per-second satellite systems. A particular challenge for OFLs is to mitigate the effects of fading, caused by a combination of turbulence-induced scintillation,...
