Space radiation effects on optical fiber communication links and design suggestions

摘要

Optical fibre communication technology is relative new to satellite application over the world. The mechanism of damaged induced by space radiation effects has been analysed on fibre links, and some achievements of research abroad have been presented. For optical transceiver, we completed a series of single particle experiments, which help us to find most sensitive components of fibre links for SEE. Based on test results, this paper provides several design suggestions to improve reliability for space fiber communication system, which can be referenced by satellite system designation for various space missions.
