Honeywell announced the collaboration, Sept. 13. The two companies are going to look to create a comprehensive solution to enable more precise and cost-effective design and deployment of space payloads and related ground assets. The collaboration intends to combine Honeywell\u2019s atmospheric sensing technology and Aegiq\u2019s emulation toolkit for link performance of optical communication technologies used by small satellites.<\/p>\n<p>Aegiq\u2019s Atlas toolkit simulates the performance of free-space optical and quantum communication networks, and specifically quantum key distribution (QKD), enabling insight into network performance metrics. Honeywell\u2019s high-altitude LiDAR atmospheric sensing (HALAS) is a remotely operated, ground-based weather information system that provides near real-time, high-altitude atmospheric measurements in as little as three minutes. A Honeywell-Aegiq solution intends to incorporate real-time atmospheric data obtained by HALAS into a tool that simulates the link performance between space and ground assets. The solution aims to allow operators to evaluate data rate and quantum key rates at a set location quickly and with more accuracy than currently possible, and to enable precise ground station to satellite link communication, so that the asset can be redeployed if required.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA solution that utilizes our expertise blends two proven technologies to enable precise evaluation of secure optical communication links within real-time atmospheric conditions producing critical information for system design and cost analyses,\u201d Maksym Sich, CEO, Aegiq, said in a statement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Honeywell is teaming up with Aegiq, a quantum networking and computing company, to bring better technology solutions for small satellites.
