Satellite Laser Ranging) and Space Debris Laser Ranging (SDLR) systems. You will bridge the gap between optical design, hardware integration, and the software algorithms required to close the link budget. What You'll Be Doing System Modelling & Simulation: creating comprehensive models for SLR and SDLR performance, including radiometric link budgets … laser ranging architectures, selecting components (pulsed lasers, single-photon detectors, optics), and overseeing the assembly of optical benches. Advanced Data Processing: Developing novel algorithms to process raw time-of-flight data, filtering noise from background photons, and refining orbital determination accuracy. Deployment & Validation: managing the installation of optical ground stations ...
