Key highlights

The Xenesis Xen-Hub is an optical space-based communication terminal consisting of an electronics/photonic modem module, optical head module and an optical amplifier (EDFA) module.

The Xen-hub by design can be used as both uplink or downlink space terminal or an optical inter-satellite link (OISL) terminal.

Applications

  • Space-ground communication
  • Inter-satellite communcation

Key features

  • Two optical assemblies (both either 7 cm or 3.5 cm in diameter), one transmit and one receive, so full-duplex
  • Integrated with the photonic ICs (TOSA and ROSA)
  • A two-axis coarse-pointing gimbal system
  • Pointing acquisition and tracking (PAT) electronics for fine pointing and thermal control
