Abstract
This study analyses the solar noise effects on flash lidar systems for several visibility conditions. The Monte-Carlo radiative transfer method is used for the signal to noise ratio (SNR) calculation, and it is confirmed that the solar noise has adverse effects on the operation of the systems, giving rise to about 3 - 5 dB decrease in SNR.
