Abstract

See full text

A beam failure alarm and protection circuit for a laser communications link. In order to distinguish a true beam failure from a mere absence of data to be transmitted, an alternate signal is produced in the transmitter whenever no data is available for transmission. The alternate signal is of a much higher frequency than true signals and is bandpass filtered. Its absence is used at the receiver to shut down the data output and trigger an alarm if the receiver senses no alternate signal within the maximum time that a typical burst of data would terminate.
