摘要 |
An optical communications and spatial tracking receiver system (55) has an optical package coupled to an acquisition and tracking network (29), the optical package including an optical fiber (22) and acting to receive optical signals (12) and to transfer them into the fiber (22), a focusing element (19) focuses a received light beam (12) at a desired focal point, (13) which includes an active fiber coupler (34), the optical fiber (22) having a terminus (20) approximately near the focal point (13), the active fiber coupler to the disposed to radially translate the optical fiber terminus (20) about the focal point (13), the tracking network (29) including actuation circuitry for assuring that the terminus (20) of the optical fiber (22) be maintained at or very near the focal point (13). A mutation device (34) includes a housing (36) to which is affixed a flexure (50), a fiber (22) extending along the flexure (50) and terminating about one end of the flexure (50). |
