Doppler Lidar Profilometer for Measurements of the Parameters of Wind

  • Published:
Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

A Doppler lidar by means of which remote measurements of the speed (in the range 0–55 m/sec) and direction of wind at specified heights (3–300 m) along with processing, representation, and transmission of the obtained data to an operator’s computer may be performed is created. The lidar is intended for off-line continuous operation in different weather conditions. Results of studies of its technical and metrological characteristics are presented.
