Free-Space Quantum Key Distribution
Alberto Carrasco-Casado, Verónica Fernández, Natalia Denisenko
Based on the firm laws of physics rather than unproven foundations of mathematical complexity, quantum cryptography provides a radically different solution for encryption and promi…
Design of an optical-communication link with Mars
Alberto Carrasco-Casado
The possibility of using optical communications in free-space as an improvement of current RF communication systems was analyzed in this Project. The particular case of a link Mars…
Ground-based gamma-ray telescopes as ground stations in deep-space lasercom
Alberto Carrasco-Casado, Jose Manuel Sanchez-Pena, Ricardo Vergaz
As the amount of information to be transmitted from deep-space rapidly increases, the radiofrequency technology has become a bottleneck in space communications. RF is already limit…
Chromatic effects in beam wander correction for free-space quantum communications
Alberto Carrasco-Casado, Natalia Denisenko, Veronica Fernandez
Beam wander caused by atmospheric turbulence can significantly degrade the performance of horizontal free-space quantum communication links. Classical beam wander correction techni…
