In the present work, a method of reconstructing the aerosol scattering coefficient profile in the atmosphere along the horizontal sensing path from echo-pulse of the short-range lidar has been proposed and implemented in the computing algorithm that allows the profile of the scattering coefficient along the sensing path to be reconstructed using additional information on the backscattering coefficient at a reference point. The correctness and efficiency of the method have been confirmed by the results of a closed numerical experiment.
