Abstract
A lidar system having interference source detection, in particular, for a vehicle. An emitter unit and a detector unit are provided, so that reflected light for sampling a surrounding area may be detected. The light emitted by the emitter unit travels through a window out of the housing, and the light reflected by the surrounding area travels through the window into the housing. At least one secondary detector is provided, which is attached to a coupling-out surface of the window. The secondary detector is configured to detect scattered light propagating inside of the window. The lidar system includes a control unit, which is configured to evaluate scattered light detected by the at least one secondary detector, in order to detect interference sources on or in the window.
