Dual-Sideband Linear FMCW Lidar with Homodyne Detection for Application in 3D Imaging
19 December 2016
Coherent lidar is reported with precision 130um and multi-target resolution 6mm. The system is based on simultaneous modulation of the in-phase and quadrature components of the transmitted optical signal and uses simplified homodyne detection. OCIS codes: (280.3640) Lidar; (120.4640) Optical instruments; (250.4110) Modulators
