Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor slope measurement algorithm robust to scintillation and sensor saturation
Timoth{é}e Vene, Laurent M Mugnier, Aur{é}lie Montmerle-Bonnefois +1
High throughput optical communication links require the use of adaptive optics (AO) to compensate for atmospheric turbulence even in strong perturbation conditions and at low eleva…
LEO-to-ground low elevation optical communication: optimization of an adaptive optics design robust to scintillation
Timoth{é}e Vene, Aur{é}lie Montmerle-Bonnefois, Laurent Mugnier +1
To maximize the duration of optical downlinks with Low-Earth Orbit satellites, it is crucial to ensure the coupling into the single mode fiber of the ground terminal even at low el…
Analysis of untrusted-node quantum key distribution from a geostationary satellite
Thomas Liege, Perrine Lognone, Matteo Schiavon +4
In pursuit of a global quantum key distribution (QKD) network, a service based on untrusted nodes on geostationary satellites could offer wide coverage, continuous operation, and e…
Increasing the secret key rate of satellite-to-ground entanglement-based QKD assisted by adaptive optics
Valentina Marulanda Acosta, Daniele Dequal, Matteo Schiavon +4
Future quantum networks will be composed of both terrestrial links for metropolitan and continent-scale connections and space-based links for global coverage and infrastructure res…
