Inhalt:
Optimisation of a hypothetical network of European optical ground stations is presented, including outages from cloud and atmospheric turbulence, with detailed simulation of turbulence mitigation by adaptive optics. We find turbulence outages without adaptive optics mitigation have a large impact on the network outage rate.
