Abstract

The small size, high efficiency, high reliability and direct modulation capabilities of semiconductor lasers make them extremely attractive for space flight applications. In this paper we report on a high sensitivity semiconductor laser ranging system developed for the Gravity And Magnetic Earth Surveyor (GAMES) for measuring variations in the planet's gravity field [1].
