Abstract
Link control is performed to optical space communication devices, which are installed in a non-terrestrial node group and an optical ground station, and optical space communication is performed using one or more links, based on link path information and a link parameter for transmitting and receiving communication service data based on service requests and link monitoring information received from the non-terrestrial node group. A link monitoring unit measures the link monitoring information, a position calculation unit calculates position information of the non-terrestrial node group, and a link parameter calculation unit calculates the link path information and the link parameter based on the position information, the service requests, and the link monitoring information. A link control unit performs link control to the optical space communication devices, and a link information communication unit communicates with the non-terrestrial node group.
