Abstract
Compared with conventional a single, “monolithic” satellite, fractionated cluster spacecraft system has the advantages of enhancing the adaptability and survivability of space systems while also shortening development expense. A novel wireless communication system that combines both microwave and laser technology has been investigated and demonstrated. The experiment results show that the hybrid laser/microwave wireless communication can offer excellent information services and meet the cluster system requirement.
