Abstract
Space optical communication is expected to play an important role in high-speed and large capacity data links for future global communications and space activities. In the paper, the background and trends in this promising field are presented as well as a scope of its technological basis. Optical communication experiments which have been recently performed by Communications Research Laboratory using ground-to-satellite links are also described.
