Abstract:

In this paper we describe a system of optically coupled cw and pulsed Nd:YAG lasers making an autodyne lidar. We have studied a behavior of intensity of a lidar return injected into cw laser operated in different modes. It is shown that a lidar based on cw and pulsed Nd:YAG lasers is highly sensitive to the return signal injected into an autodyne lidar.
