CHORD: A prototype FSO/RF transceiver. CHORD is an acronym for Common Aperture Optical RF Data links.
The team will construct novel common aperture hybrid free space optical (FSO)/RF communication transceivers mounted on high-performance gimbal stages. These will point to, acquire, and track directional beam wireless links that are fast and physically secure.
