Abstract

We are developing a remote sensing technique to determine the atmospheric $C_{n}^{2}$ profile for ranges of up to 2.5 km using a modified backscatter lidar. Determination is made of the angle of arrival of backscattered laser light in the lidar system. $C_{n}^{2}$ is calculated from these measurements using the standard weak turbulence model.
