(author), Scheffers, P.I. (author), Korevaar, C.W. (author)To overcome data rate limitations of RF communication links with satellites, TNO and Airbus Netherlands envision optical free-space communication feeder links for next generation high throughput satellites. This poster presents a feasibility assessment of such links and the technology needed by means of a link budget and a turbulence model of...other 2019

de Jong, W. (author), Russchenberg, T. (author), Amelink, A. (author), Kempe, M. (author), Salas, M. (author), Leitgeb, R. (author)Artificial test eyes have been developed for a multimodal ophthalmic imaging platform. The test eyes can be used for alignment of different imaging modalities and for fluorescence channel performance testing. Different scattering and absorption characteristics can be realized in the artificial retina.conference paper 2019

(author)For the next generation of very high throughput communication satellites, free-space optical (FSO) communication between ground stations and geostationary telecommunication satellites is likely to replace conventional RF links. To mitigate atmospheric turbulence, TNO and DLR propose Adaptive Optics (AO) to apply uplink pre-correction. In order...conference paper 2019

(author), Spruit, W.E.T. (author), Brinkers, S. (author), Human, J.D. (author)To increase the collecting power and to improve the angular imaging resolution, space telescopes are evolving towards larger primary mirrors. The aerial density of the telescope mirrors needs to be kept low, however, to be compatible with the launch requirements. A light-weight (primary) mirror will introduce additional optical aberrations to...conference paper 2017

(author)Over the last decade TNO has developed a deformable mirror concept using electromagnetic actuators with the main advantages of having very low non-linearity and hysteresis, low power consumption, and high inherent reliability of the actuators. TNO recently started a program to redesign the electromagnetic actuator to improve the actuator...conference paper 2016
