- Fibreless optical links in the skies
Mynaric has developed equipment for transmitting data via laser between moving airborne or space platforms at rates similar to conventional optical fibre, but with the light transmitted through free space rather than along a cable. This opens the possibility of equipping the airborne networks proposed by Facebook and Google, or the satellite networks supported by Elon Musk and Richard Branson with high speed optical data links rather than slower microwave connections. These proposed networks offer the opportunity of providing more data transmission in the developed world without needing to install more fibre-optic cable and extending internet access to the half of the world’s population who are not connected.Mynaric AG is a Germany-based holding company specializing in laser communication technologies for high-bandwidth and long distance point-to-point communication between moving objects for terrestrial, airborne and space applications. Its wireless data transmission products include Optical Ground Stations, Air-to-Ground, Air-to-Air and Space Terminals, as well as subcomponents and custom solutions. Applications for the Company's products include high altitude networks, secure remote surveillance, downlinks for Earth observation satellites, satellite constellations and Smart City infrastructure, among others. The Company cooperates with the German Aerospace Center (DLR) in research on free-space optical communication. The Company provides centralized services for the Mynaric Group, which consists of Mynaric Lasercom GmbH and Mynaric USA, Inc., a branch in the United States, supporting North American customers on special projects.
