Abstract

AbstractInter-satellite communication links are very crucial between satellites orbiting around the earth in order to transmit information between them and also for the purpose of data relaying from one satellite station to other stations and ground stations. Inter-satellite optical wireless communication (IsOWC) links involve the application of optical wireless signals as compared to radio frequency signals used in traditional satellite communication systems. One of the major problems leading to the performance degradation of IsOWC link is the signal degradation due to satellite vibrations also known as pointing errors. In this paper, the performance of an IsOWC communication link has been investigated for different system parameters such as data transmission rates, antenna aperture diameter, transmission power levels, operating wavelength and responsivity of photodiode by analyzing
