High Speed Optical Transmitter and Receiver Development for Lidar and Communications
نویسنده
چکیده
My long-term goal concerns component development for a novel hybrid lidar-radar system for underwater surveillance. Preliminary ocean experiments of the hybrid lidar-radar system have confirmed the potential of microwave-modulated pulsed lidar to be a superior detection mechanism for underwater surveillance [1]. The next step in the evolution of this novel technique is the improvement of the key components of the measurement system: high speed, large area photodetectors and microwave modulated pulsed laser sources.

High Speed Optical Transmitter and Receiver
This proposal concerns component development for a novel hybrid lidar-radar system for underwater surveillance. Computer simulations and laboratory measurements of pulsed lidar revealed a 17 dB suppression of the water backscatter signal (clutter) and corresponding target contrast enhancement. Preliminary ocean experiments have confirmed the potential of pulsed lidar to be a superior detection ...
متن کاملSignal Optimization During Radio Links Between a Transmitter and a Receiver Located in Adjacent Material Media with Differing Optical Densities (TECHNICAL NOTE)
Signal optimization is affected during radio links between a transmitter and a receiver located in adjacent material media with differing optical densities. The optimization is carried out via the automated control theory method. The radio signal obtained after the optimization is coordinated with the two media's electrical characteristics simultaneously; and this enables low power and small an...
