NICT initiated R & D activities of Small Optical Transponder (SOTA) for micro-satellites to demonstrate attractive features of optical technology. Development of the SOTA started based on the bread board model (BBM). Design review of BBM revealed the necessity of engineering model (EM) for critical technologies of 2-axes gimbal and receiving optics. Evaluation of the EM carried out and final design of the SOTA was fixed. This paper describes design progress of the SOTA.
