对于许多军事应用，需要以高脉冲重复频率工作的小型、轻型测距仪。结果表明，在发射机中安装注入激光器的测距系统可以满足这些要求。本文描述了一种采用脉冲砷化镓激光二极管发射机的光学测距系统的性能，在室温下峰值功率可达100瓦。在简要回顾了系统的基本参数之后，根据光电子统计的泊松分布，给出了系统的射程能力的计算。对理论分析的实验支持进行了讨论。
For many military applications small, lightweight range finders are required that operate at a high pulse repetition rate. It will be shown that a ranging system with an injection laser in the transmitter can fulfill these requirements. The performance of an optical ranging system employing a pulsed gallium arsenide laser diode transmitter, with peak powers up to 100 watts at room temperature is described. After a brief review of fundamental system parameters, calculations of the range capability of the system are given, based upon the Poisson distribution of photoelectron statistics. A discussion is presented on the experimental support of theoretical analysis.
