Comparison of the pseudorandom noise code and pulsed direct-detection lidars for atmospheric probing.

J L Machol.   

Abstract

The advantages and limitations of using the pseudorandom-noise (PN)-code technique in comparison with pulsed direct detection are discussed. Because the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the PN codes is dependent on the average atmospheric return, strong returns from short ranges and clouds determine the SNR for all ranges. The SNR of a profile obtained by pulsed direct detection exceeds that of the PN-code technique for laser beams with the same average power.
