In a wind profiler, the number of acquisition ranges is expanded up to heights where noise is introduced into a received signal, even in the case where noise due to transmit/receive switching is introduced. A signal processing device in a wind profiler emits an electromagnetic wave pulse into a space, switches from transmitting to receiving, receives an electromagnetic wave reflected from a target to be observed, and measures wind speed from a Doppler frequency of the received electromagnetic wave, and includes an unnecessary data determiner that detects a noise section in which switching noise occurs due to the switching between transmitting and receiving, and an unnecessary data eraser that converts a received signal in the noise section to substantially insignificant data.

An optical device includes: a casing having a waterproof structure; a light transmission part provided in the casing; an air blow port for blowing air onto the light transmission part; a flow path for causing the air to flow to the air blow port, the flow path being provided to maintain the waterproof structure of the casing; an air intake port through which the air flows into the flow path; a blower part generating the flow of the air from the air intake port to the air blow port; and an observation unit accommodated in the casing to receive light from the outside via the light transmission part.
