Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

After decades of development, space optical communication has evolved into two stages of generation after generation of optical communication terminals. Space optical communication technology has rapidly developed, but still faces many technical challenges. In this Special Issue, we welcome original articles and reviews that discuss cutting-edge research on space optical communication technologies, as well as extended conference papers.

The topics of this Special Issue can cover many advanced sub-fields, including, but not limited to: 6G wireless networks, free space optical communication, satellite optical communication, hybrid RF&FSO space communication, high-altitude platform communications, space–air–groundocean communication and networking, hybird LD&LED communications, space optical wireless power transfer, space SLIPT, and UAV optical wireless communications.
