Approximation methods for estimating the availability of optical ground networks

Optical communications are a key technology enabler to return increasing amounts of data from space exploration platforms such as robotic spacecraft in Earth orbit or across the solar system. However, several challenges have hindered the deployment and utilization of this technology in an operationa...
