There is line of sight.

The budget is around 2k€ by now, but can be increased.

This project is for an amateur astro club, and the resources they would give to me are limited, except the place where to do this and some optics.

The setup must be mobile, I mean that I should be able to place the telescopes in other places "easily".

There is some material however. Material includes FPGA boards, VOCXO + PLL boards, IR lasers and APD sensor boards, ARM boards, and consumer PCs.

There is also the possibility to use some optics like small reflector telescopes, as pointed before, they could be used as beam expanders for IR lasers.

Ilia.

Quoting Michael Wouters: "According to this,

there are many practical challenges  with a one way free-space optical link."
That paper indicates that  one way transfer with noise of a few picosec should 
be feasible using an IR laser.
Oh, yes I see in Fig 2b that the short term, one-way noise is ca. +/-
5 ps. And probably with temperature measurements, the long term
variation could be compensated.

But we still don't know if there is line of sight.
