Abstract
Vehicles, systems, and techniques are provided for noise reduction in detection in remote sensing systems. Noise reduction can be accomplished, in some embodiments, by narrowing a time interval to receive return EM radiation (or, in other embodiments, EM signals representative of the return EM radiation) at a system mounted in a vehicle. The time interval can be narrowed by adjusting the time during which the system can receive the return EM radiation. In other embodiments, rather than adjusting the time interval, a processing unit can remove a portion of data representative of a signal resulting from mixing probe EM radiation and return EM radiation. The data that is removed can be representative of the signal during a leading interval of the defined period during which probe EM radiation is emitted. Such a removal can result in second data representative of the signal during a terminal interval of the defined period.
