Abstract :
We propose an optical duplicate system to generate multiple beams from a single beam for reducing the effects of atmospheric turbulence, and to control the divergence angle of the "communication " and "beacon " light beams suitably. This simultaneously removes the need for mechanical control and simplifies ground operation.
