In recent years, tremendous interest has been evoked in the development of fibre optic inertial systems. Apart from this, the optical fibre systems are proving their might in the areas of monitoring of the enviornmental parameters. In addition to this, optical fibre system find extensive applications in satellite and rocket based systems. In this paper, the highlights of these new technologies have been presented with special emphasis on communication aspects between satellite check-out and data reception communication links between ground station and tracking antenna. Also, few other possible applications of fibre based instrumentation on-board satellites are dealt with.
