CTA telescopes as deep-space lasercom ground receivers
Alberto Carrasco-Casado, Jose Manuel Sanchez-Pena, Ricardo Vergaz
The amount of scientific data to be transmitted from deep-space probes is very limited due to RF-communications constraints. Free-space optical communication can alleviate this bot…
Low-Impact Air-to-Ground Free-Space Optical Communication System Design and First Results
Alberto Carrasco-Casado, Eva Oton, Ricardo Vergaz +3
An air-to-ground free-space optical communication system has been designed and partially developed. The design covers both the communications between the airborne and the ground st…
Design and early development of a UAV terminal and a ground station for laser communications
Alberto Carrasco-Casado, Ricardo Vergaz, Jose M. Sanchez-Pena
A free-space laser communication system has been designed and partially developed as an alternative to standard RF links from UAV to ground stations. This project belongs to the SI…
High-speed free-space quantum key distribution with automatic tracking for short-distance urban links
Alberto Carrasco-Casado, Maria-Jose Garcia-Martinez, Natalia Denisenko +1
High-speed free-space quantum key distribution located in urban environment offers an interesting alternative to public key encryption - whose security strength is yet to be mathem…
Contributions to free-space optical communications: feasibility of utilizing Cherenkov telescopes as receivers and beam-wander correction in quantum communications
Alberto Carrasco-Casado
This thesis focuses on the two main applications where free-space optical communication (FSOC) can bring the most significant impact: interplanetary communications and quantum comm…
