Some issues on technologies of laser communications between satellites and satellite\|ground are discussed. Emphasis is put on comparison of laser wavelengths, in views of background noise level, system size and weight, performances and availability of the devices. Semiconductor lasers at 800 and 1550nm band are good candidates with small size, low weight and high efficiency. Compared with light sources at visible band, they suffer less background noise. A brief scheme is presented by using optical fiber communication technology and devices. A scheme of transmitter is proposed, which consists of a semiconductor laser master oscillator and an EDFA optical power amplifier (MOPA). Fiber circulators and fiber couplers will be incorporated in the terminal to multiplex the transmission and receiving optical paths. Narrow line\|width fiber bragg grating filters can also be used in the system. Compared with the atomic line filter, much more bands can be chosen by using FBG.
