Description

Analog Photonics (AP) proposes a free space optical link with fast, nonmechanical steering capable of transferring duplex gigabit data streams, tracking and holding to a with minimal SWAP-C. Small size and weight makes this system suitable for individual soldiers in RF contested tactical applications. The beam steering for data transmission is performed with our patented silicon photonics optical phased array (SiPh OPA) technology while the receive operation is achieved with low noise, high gain AlGaAs APDs.
