Description
The goal of this program is to design and develop mid-infrared transmitters and receivers for high-speed free space optical communications in the mid-wave infrared (MWIR) atmospheric window. Besides development and optimization of the devices, we will also evaluate expected system level performance characteristics and challenges associated with long distance communication. Based on this study, we will devise and propose plans how to address those challenges and formulate strategies to further expand range and improve performance.
