METHOD FOR LASER SPACE COMMUNICATIONS AND FACILITY FOR ITS IMPLEMENTATION Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC H04B10/00 

FIELD: information technologies.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to the area of laser space communications and laser equipment and is intended for creation of fixed laser space communications facilities in adjacent space - before orbit of the Moon, and in far space on route form the Earth to Mars, and throughout solar system. Following operations are executed: determination of laser radiation Doppler frequency shift from base part of laser space communications facility when it is received in board facility part; shifting laser radiation optical frequency in base part of facility by negative value of measured Doppler shift; applying quantum amplification of laser radiation and measuring shift of its optical frequency in board part of facility, as well as shift of receiving band central frequency and quantum amplification in board and base parts of facility; determination of quality parametres of established laser space communications; generation of laser radiation, receive and quantum amplification of laser communication signals with established shifts of optical frequencies.

EFFECT: increase in laser space communications range, increase volumes and rate of data transmission between space vehicles and ground stations throughout solar system.
