Abstract :
In-orbit measurements of two experimental optical-wireless data links on board a polar LEO (Low Earth Orbit) spacecraft are presented. The effects of single event transients on the bit error rate, as well as those of displacement damage on the optoelectronic components being used, were measured. The results are consistent with those obtained from proton irradiations carried out in ground facilities.
