Abstract

Recent advances in near-infrared diode-pumped solid-state lasers radiating at eyesafe wavelengths^1–3 have created new possibilities for avionic use of coherent lidars. A compact and reliable coherent lidar system has the potential of improving air travel safety by detecting hazardous windshears, and atmospheric and aircraft-induced turbulences. In addition, the aircraft performance can be enhanced by providing accurate measurements of air and ground speeds possible by a coherent lidar.
