The laser Doppler techniques
Abstract
An attempt is made to give a complete discussion of the principles of velocity measurement by the laser Doppler technique and an adequate description of the instruments and their application. The principles of laser optics are discussed and attention is given to the Doppler shift, the differential Doppler technique, signal processing techniques, directional discrimination and frequency shifting, and the properties of scattering properties. Such applications as studies of turbulence, the measurement of wind speed, and studies of combustion are discussed.
