Group 66 - The Advanced Lasercom Systems and Operations Group models, designs, builds, tests, and operates prototype space and airborne lasercom terminals. A major group effort is the development of low size, weight, and power (SWaP) airborne lasercom terminals which perform reliably over fading links. Key supporting efforts include the development of high data-rate modems with high efficiency modulation formats and sensitive detection schemes, and implementation of novel forward error correctio...
