Abstract

Embodiments of the disclosure provide receivers for light detection and ranging (LiDAR). In an example, a receiver includes an acousto-optical (AO) beam deflecting unit configured to receive an input laser beam and a controller configured to cause an acoustic signal to be applied to the AO beam deflecting unit to deflect the input laser beam for a deflection angle and form an output laser beam towards a beam sensor. The deflection angle between the input and the output laser beams is nonzero.
