Abstract: L'invention concerne une technique pour acquérir et suivre des terminaux dans un système de communication par laser dans un espace libre, cette technique mettant en jeu l'échange de faisceaux laser de balise entre des terminaux pour acquérir puis suivre les terminaux, de telle sorte que des faisceaux laser de données échangés par les terminaux pour une communication sont orientés sur la base d'une rétroaction provenant de la détection des faisceaux laser de balise. Les faisceaux laser de balise utilisés pour l'acquisition ont une divergence de faisceau plus importante que ceux utilisés pour le suivi. Des cardans assurent une orientation grossière des faisceaux laser de données et des miroirs d'orientation assurent une orientation fine. Des données de position GPS échangées par l'intermédiaire d'une liaison RF peuvent être utilisées pour le pointage initial des faisceaux laser de balise pour l'acquisition. Les faisceaux laser de balise peuvent être découpés, de telle sorte que tous les terminaux peuvent utiliser la même longueur d'onde de balise et sont différentiés à l'aide de différentes fréquences de découpage. En détectant un signal de découpage, le détecteur de position peut être couplé en courant alternatif pour réduire la sensibilité au scintillement et au rayonnement solaire.
