Abstract

Fabry-Perot Intensity modulation Laser radar Optical attenuators Optical harmonic generation Optical modulation Optical transmitters Power lasers Pulse modulation Radar detection
To improve the detection sensitivity of aerial light detection and ranging (lidar), a hybrid lidar-radar detection scheme has been studied. Preliminary laboratory experiments are promising, but the full-scale realization of this novel system requires the development of high speed modulators for high power, blue-green laser pulses. This paper details experimental and analytical studies performed on a Fabry-Perot modulator suitable for lidar-radar applications.
