Research on a Wind Lidar Without Blind Zone Based on the Technologies of Pseudo Random Code Phase Modulation and Heterodyne Detection
Abstract
In this measurement method, a wind lidar system with no blind zone based on the technologies of heterodyne detection and pseudorandom code phase modulation is proposed. The simulation results show the feasibility of the method. 15m range resolution and 7.75cm/s line of sight (LOS) wind velocity resolution can be achieved from 0 m to 300m, when the laser transmitted power is 2mW, the transmitted pulse length is 100us, the receiving telescope aperture is 2cm, and an accumulation times of 10. The simulation results also show the positive effect of the transmitted pulse length.
