Analysis of a random modulation single photon counting differential absorption lidar system for space-borne atmospheric CO2 sensing
The ability to observe the Earth’s carbon cycles from space provides scientists an important tool to analyze climate change. Current proposed systems are mainly based on pulsed integrated path differential absorption lidar, in which two high energy pulses at different wavelengths interrogate the atmosphere sequentially for its transmission properties and are back-scattered by the ground. In thi...
متن کاملLIDAR System based on a High Brightness Semiconductor Laser and Single Photon Counting Detection for Space-borne Atmospheric CO2 Monitoring
High brightness semiconductor lasers are potential transmitters for future space LIDAR systems. In this contribution, we propose an all-semiconductor laser source for an Integrated Path Differential Absorption LIDAR system for column-averaged measurements of atmospheric CO2 in future satellite missions. The transmitter design is based on two monolithic Master Oscillator Power Amplifiers, provid...
متن کاملPreliminary Parameters for an Experimental Payload for Tropospheric CO2 Measurement Using a Space-borne Lidar 6U Cubesat Platform
This paper investigates the implementation of a downward looking space-borne lidar system to map the concentration of Tropospheric CO2. Lidar has been used to measure greenhouse gases and a variety of trace species, profile winds, and producing high-resolution topographical maps. Sufficiently accurate CO2 mapping can locate and quantify sources and sinks of CO2, thus helping understand the carb...
متن کاملAll‐fiber versatile laser frequency reference at 2 μm for CO2 space‐borne lidar applications
Sensing atmospheric gas traces is crucial for climate monitoring and to predict the importance of global climate changes. Among the various atmospheric constituents, carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and water vapor (H2O-v), the most prominent greenhouse gasses, have a major impact on climate. Advanced monitoring techniques are necessary to measure these gas species on a global scale all arou...
متن کاملUltrawideband coherent noise lidar range-Doppler imaging and signal processing by use of spatial-spectral holography in inhomogeneously broadened absorbers.
We introduce a new approach to coherent lidar range-Doppler sensing by utilizing random-noise illuminating waveforms and a quantum-optical, parallel sensor based on spatial-spectral holography (SSH) in a cryogenically cooled inhomogeneously broadened absorber (IBA) crystal. Interference between a reference signal and the lidar return in the spectrally selective absorption band of the IBA is use...
