Optical communication is capable of transmitting a large amount of data at high speed, and the confidentiality of the data is maintained. Therefore, the optical communication is currently being used for satellite communication. Such optical communication requires sophisticated technology and expensive equipment. Against this background, as a simple optical communication, the purpose of this research is to develop a new satellite operation system by sending a simple command to the satellite by a command uplink with the same signal and receiver as the remote controller. It is considered that this device can be used as an emergency line. Remote control signals by near infrared light are used on the ground side, and the pointing software to the satellite is based on an equatorial mount. Satellite position information is only TLE data, and there is no feedback from the satellite side, we are considering scanning high power light on the ground side to cover the coordinate error of 2 km due to TLE.
