More >>Freedom Photonics is a company that received a Department of Defense SBIR/STTR grant for a project entitled: Optical Transmitter for Inter-satellite Communications. The abstract given for this project is as follows: In this project, we propose to develop a rad hard, monolithically integrated widely tunable optical transmitter capable of operating at data rates of greater than 100Gbps, utilizing advanced multilevel modulation schemes. The transmitter will be developed using an Indium Phosphide monolithic integration platform, minimizing the size, weight and power of the module. The multilevel modulation scheme used provides the best bit rate scalability for lasercom satellite links.
