Multiangle lidar performance in the presence of horizontal inhomogeneities in atmospheric extinction and scattering

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The performance of single-ended multiangle lidar for measurements of atmospheric extinction and backscattering is analyzed in the presence of shot noise. An algorithm for determining the transmission coefficient in the presence of horizontal inhomogeneities is described. The analysis indicates that real-time measurements of atmospheric properties with the multiangle lidar may be feasible even in inhomogeneous regions.
