Abstract
An optical communication system using a photonic lantern for fine point tracking is disclosed. The optical communication system may comprise a photonic lantern, a signal processing unit including one or more fiber splitters to sample a fraction of a received signal in each single mode fiber of the photonic lantern, and one or more intensity sensors positioned in one arm of each fiber splitter, and used for monitoring fiber-specific intensity data associated with each of the single-mode fibers. The system may further include a fine pointing assembly and a controller for controlling a driver of the fine pointing assembly.
