Abstract

The "infrared laser atmospheric communication between warships" mainly solves the problems of secrecy and real-time communication in modern warfare condition. Concerning infrared laser atmospheric communication, the primary problem we should solve is how to acquire, point, and trace an object (shorted for APT) using the optical systems on warships. Therefore, a suitable platform is necessary. The platform is proposed in this paper, which includes the platform's general design framework and principle, the acquisition and tracing algorithm of optical signals, and technical targets. The algorithm is simple and practical. The design of the platform is practically significant for more research in infrared laser atmospheric communication system.
