In this paper, an X-ray communication program, which consists of a sender of grid controlled X-ray source and a receiver of X-ray single-photon detector based on micro-channel plate, is presented. With the detailed information about the signal modulation transmitter, the micro-channel-based X-ray single-photon detector as well as the signal receiving demodulator, a space audio communication system based on X-ray is built. The communication rate of more than 20 kbit/s is realized. According to the preliminary test result analyses of the X-ray space audio communication system test, the X-ray emission success rate restricts the communication speed by the influence of different X-ray intensities, signal shaping time and threshold settings respectively. Therefore, a scheme for further increasing X-ray communication performance is suggested.
