Abstract

The present invention provides an optical terminal (1) for lidar and optical communication, comprising a transmitter section (2), including a first transmitter unit (21) configured to emit a first communication signal (211) at a first wavelength, a second transmitter unit (22) configured to emit a first quantum signal (221) at a second wavelength; and a receiver section (3), including a first receiver unit (31) configured to receive a second communication signal (311) at a third wavelength, a second receiver unit (32) configured to receive a lidar signal (321) at the first wavelength, and a controller (4) configured to control an emission of the first transmitter unit (21) and the second transmitter unit (22), extract data from the received communication signal (311), and determine a time-of-flight of the lidar signal (321) based on the emission of the first communication signal (211). Further, the present invention provides a corresponding method for operating an optical terminal (1).
