satellite and telecom operators
Modernize and optimize network infrastructures using free-space optical technology
According to the Telegeography report of 2021, www2.telegeography.com, the Internet bandwidth usage has reached 786 Tbps in 2021 while it’s been growing steadily at 30% per year for the past 20 years. In the meantime, Euroconsult, www.euroconsult-ec.com, estimated the HTS Satcom capacity around only 12 Tbps in 2021 as it is only relying on radio communications with limited bandwidth compared ground fiber optics.
Through the development of the optical communication link between Earth and space, satcom and telecom operators are looking to extend the core terrestrial fiber network into space.
Miratlas understands this: the company attaches great importance to working with operators to modernize and optimize their network infrastructures using free-space optical telecommunications technology.
We help you to unpass your daily challenges
Ensuring continuity of services
While laser communications offer many advantages over radio (capacity, security, lack of permit, resistance to interference), their development faces several difficulties posed by the light propagation through the atmosphere. Atmospheric disturbances (clouds, turbulence absorption) are an obstacle to their use.
Optimizing the use of satellites and teleports
Data from Earth observation satellites are currently only transmitted to the ground when they are flying over their teleport. Thanks to laser communication links between satellites, they will be able to relay information between each other until the first one is able to establish a connection with its teleport.
The use of laser communications from space to the ground allows the continuity of the optical link from the image capture to the data centers with the best capacity. Thus, offering the possibility of obtaining images of the Earth in real time and at very high resolution.

Our dedicated offers to satellite operators
select the best site
Miratlas enables operators to identify the best sites for transmitting and receiving information transmitted by laser communication. These sites are crucial to guarantee the most operational continuity of services, considering the location of terrestrial and space infrastructures. This selection of sites is done through the process of modeling atmospheric turbulence to map the best terrestrial locations.
OPTIMIZE EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE
Miratlas enables existing terrestrial facilities to evolve towards offering laser communication as a service to their space customers, by qualifying the availability and bandwidth potential according to atmospheric conditions.
ENSure the best path
For information routing
By providing the optical transfer function of the atmosphere and in all places, Miratlas enables the selection of the best path between Earth and space where atmospheric disturbances are minimal.
