对用于测量平流层的高功率激光雷达的发射机和接收机的光学系统进行了设计和分析。给出了系统需求和设计结果,并进行了说明。这一设计的一个重要和推动因素是要求光学斩波器平面上的小图像直径,以允许从低层大气返回的高强度激光雷达被探测系统屏蔽。给出了与系统光学性能有关的一些结果。由此产生的系统已经建成,目前正在夏威夷的莫纳罗亚天文台运行,并定期测量平流层臭氧、温度和气溶胶分布。
The optical systems for the transmitter and receiver of a high-power lidar for stratospheric measurements have been designed and analyzed. The system requirements and design results are presented and explained. An important and driving factor of this design was the requirement for a small image diameter in the plane of an optical chopper to allow the high-intensity lidar returns from the lower atmosphere to be shielded from the detection system. Some results relevant to the optical performance of the system are presented. The resulting system has been constructed and is now in operation at the Mauna Loa Observatory, Hawaii, and is making regular measurements of stratospheric ozone, temperature, and aerosol profiles.
