Abstract
A LIDAR system is configured to output a system output signal and to receive a system return signal. The system return signal includes light that was included in the system output signal and that was reflected by an object located outside of the LIDAR system. A time delay occurs between the light being output from the LIDAR system and returning to the LIDAR system. The LIDAR system also includes electronics that use a portion of the system return signal that returns to the LIDAR system during a data window to generate LIDAR data that indicates a radial velocity and/or distance between the LIDAR system and the object. The electronics tune the duration of the data window in response to the amount of the time delay.
