Coherent Doppler lidar for wind farm characterization
Coherent Doppler lidar measurements are of increasing interest for the wind energy industry. Wind measurements are fundamental inputs for the evaluation of potential energy yield and performance of wind farms. Three-dimensional scanning Doppler lidar may provide a new basis for wind farm site selection, design and optimization. In this paper, the authors discuss Doppler lidar measurements obtai...
متن کاملComputer simulation of coherent Doppler lidar measurement of wind velocity and retrieval of turbulent wind statistics
C. Werner DLR Institute of Atmospheric Physics D-82234 Wessling, Germany E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. We describe the algorithms for the simulation of cw and pulsed coherent Doppler wind lidar operation in a turbulent atmosphere and the methods to estimate the mean wind and the parameters of small-scale wind turbulence from lidar data. The algorithms are realized as LabView compute...
متن کاملRetrieval of aerosol backscatter and extinction from airborne coherent Doppler wind lidar measurements
A novel method for calibration and quantitative aerosol optical property retrieval from Doppler wind lidars (DWLs) is presented in this work. Due to the strong wavelength dependence of the atmospheric molecular backscatter and the low sensitivity of the coherent DWLs to spectrally broad signals, calibration methods for aerosol lidars cannot be applied to coherent DWLs usually operating at wavel...
متن کاملAn all-fiber image-reject homodyne coherent Doppler wind lidar.
In this paper, we present an alternative approach to the down-conversion (translation) of the received optical signals collected by the antenna of an all-fiber coherent Doppler lidar (CDL). The proposed method, widely known as image-reject, quadrature detection, or in-phase/quadrature-phase detection, utilizes the advances in fiber optic communications such that the received signal can be optic...
متن کاملLIDAR and SODAR Measurements of Wind Speed and Direction in Upland Terrain for Wind Energy Purposes
Detailed knowledge of the wind resource is necessary in the developmental and operational stages of a wind farm site. As wind turbines continue to grow in size, masts for mounting cup anemometers—the accepted standard for resource assessment—have necessarily become much taller, and much more expensive. This limitation has driven the commercialization of two remote sensing (RS) tools for the win...
