Abstract
A differential laser Doppler velocimeter using 48-channel spatial encoded measurement points is proposed for dense cross-sectional velocity distribution measurements. An asymmetrical push–pull configuration and multiple photodiodes are employed to increase the number of the measurement points. The functionality of the proposed structure is experimentally demonstrated. The results indicate that a cross-sectional velocity distribution is successfully measured with the proposed structure.
