Information provided to the government will be part of a commercial survey of tactical free-space optical communications solutions with potential for future demonstrations. Responses will be selected for a technical exchange with NIWC Atlantic engineers. ![]() Navy researchers are looking for free-space optical communications solutions that can support multi-access from distributed end-users with automated network management, and that support multi-in, multi-out tactical free-space optical communications or non-line-of-sight tactical free-space optical communications through relay or re-transmission. Tactical free-space optical communications systems that are of interest included fixed-site point to point transmitters and receivers that could be adapted to active pointing and tracking systems. Technologies of interest include active pointing and tracking systems for maintaining links in dynamic environments. Space Force reaches out to industry for companies able to adapt 5G wireless networking to space uses Free space means air, outer space, vacuum, or something similar, and does not use solids such as optical fiber cable.įrom industry, Navy researchers want information about tactical free-space optical communications technologies that at least are at Technology Readiness Level 4, which describes components assembled in a laboratory that are tested together. Officials of the Naval Information Warfare Center-Atlantic (NIWC-Atlantic) in North Charleston, S.C., issued a request for information (N65236_SNOTE_00746AD9) last week for the Free Space Optics Communications project.įree-space optical communications uses a light source - typically a laser - propagating in free space to transmit wireless data for telecommunications or computer networking. Navy communications experts are reaching out to industry to find companies able to develop laser communications systems that can maintain communications links from stationary or moving laser transmitters and receivers.
