Abstract

By rotating the half-wave plate, the variable communication bit rate between 5.12Gbps and 2.56Gbps has been verified at satellite-to-ground optical communication linkage, the communication link used Differential Phase Shift Keying(DPSK) modulation format and the wavelength is 1549.731nm. Without error correcting code and adaptive optics, an average bit error rate of 1.9E-9 was achieved while the link distance exceeded 1500km.
