Laser communication, timing transfer, rangingand PAT in the CLICK B/C mission
LISA’s laser link requires Pointing, Acquisition and Tracking (PAT) and deploys laser data communication, timing transfer and ranging. CLICK (CubeSat Laser Infrared CrosslinK) is an independent demonstrator for these concepts.
