Pure rotational Raman lidar with fiber Bragg grating for temperature profiling of the atmospheric boundary layer
A new pure rotational Raman lidar (PRRL) system at a wavelength of 532.25 nm has been designed for profiling the atmospheric temperature of the planetary boundary layer. A newly compact spectroscope structured with three fiber Bragg gratings (FBG) is designed to separate two pure rotational Raman signals for atmospheric temperature retrieval, and to simultaneously block the Mieand Rayleigh-scat...
متن کاملAbsolute calibration of LIDAR Thomson scattering systems by rotational Raman scattering.
Absolute calibration of LIDAR Thomson scattering systems on large fusion devices may be achieved using rotational Raman scattering. The choice of calibrating gas molecule presents different options and design trade-offs and is likely to be strongly dependent on the laser wavelength selected. Raman scattering of hydrogenic molecules produces a very broad spectrum, however, with far fewer scatter...
متن کاملPure rotational-Raman channels of the Esrange lidar for temperature and particle extinction measurements in the troposphere and lower stratosphere
The Department of Meteorology at Stockholm University operates the Esrange Rayleigh/Raman lidar at Esrange (68 N, 21 E) near the Swedish city of Kiruna. This paper describes the design and first measurements of the new pure rotational-Raman channel of the Esrange lidar. The Esrange lidar uses a pulsed Nd:YAG solid-state laser operating at 532 nm as light source with a repetition rate of 20 Hz a...
متن کاملAnalytical Least-Squares Solution for 3D Lidar-Camera Calibration
This paper addresses the problem of estimating the intrinsic parameters of the 3D Velodyne lidar while at the same time computing its extrinsic calibration with respect to a rigidly connected camera. Existing approaches to solve this nonlinear estimation problem are based on iterative minimization of nonlinear cost functions. In such cases, the accuracy of the resulting solution hinges on the a...
متن کاملLamp mapping technique for independent determination of the water vapor mixing ratio calibration factor for a Raman lidar system.
We have investigated a technique that allows for the independent determination of the water vapor mixing ratio calibration factor for a Raman lidar system. This technique utilizes a procedure whereby a light source of known spectral characteristics is scanned across the aperture of the lidar system's telescope and the overall optical efficiency of the system is determined. Direct analysis of th...
