Abstract

In this paper, a method of acquisition between optical ground station and quantum communication satellite named Micius for establish optical links is proposed. The acquisition technological specification of the optical ground station system is analyzed. The acquisition strategy of optical ground station is designed. In order to point accurately to quantum satellite for optical ground station, system error modifying method is designed, using the telescope mount model to improve the absolute pointing precision. Finally the experiment result is proposed. Results show that the correction accuracy is better than 5μrad. The acquisition time is less than 5 seconds.
