摘要
A new optical Doppler lidar receiving system which can measure Doppler-shifted incoherent scattering light has been proposed and tested. This system functions in a manner similar to two edge filters and consists of a single etalon, a polarization beam splitter, and mirrors that can guide scattered light into a single etalon with two different angles. These two incident angles are precisely adjusted by the polarization beam splitter and mirrors. Using this optical receiving system we can measure a moving target with a high sensitivity. Theoretical calculations show that this system will have a better optical sensitivity than a single edge system and will allow the use of incoherent Doppler lidar for wind velocity measurements.
