Abstract:

The substantiation of the design and technical description of the turbulent lidar BSE-6, intended for installation on board aircraft, is given. In order to reduce the overall dimensions of the system, both sides of the optical bench are used: a transceiver is installed on one side, and a receiving module is mounted on the other. The heat-generating elements are placed in separate insulated ventilated sections. To minimize the deformation of the optical bench, external air is pumped through its middle. The lidar adjustment procedure is described. The quality of the assembly and alignment was tested by comparing the theoretical calculation with real echo signals. The system was also tested for thermomechanical stability.

Keywords:

turbulent lidar, backscatter enhancement effect, clear air turbulence, aviation safety
