Abstract

A strategy of measurement by a 1.5-μm pulsed coherent Doppler lidar “Stream Line” has been developed, and a method for estimation of aircraft wake vortices from the lidar data has been proposed. The principal possibility of obtaining the information about the vortex situation over an airport airfield with the Stream-Line lidar has been demonstrated.
