Abstract

An atmospheric turbulence data optical LIDAR system for computation of wind velocity includes a laser () to transmit one or more beams to a target, an optical head () including a transmitting optics () and a collecting lens () for receiving one or more corresponding beam returns from the target. A detection system () includes a multi-element detector array at near a focal plane of the collecting lens. For each element of the multi-element detector array there is a specific optical path in the atmosphere leading from the laser to the target and back from the target to the element. A processor measures () signal fluctuations of an element of the multi-element detector array and computes therefrom crosswind velocity of wind in the atmosphere. The processor calculates turbulence strength changes.
