Multichannel signal-recording system for the lidar measurement of atmospheric sodium
Abstract
The main sources of error in the lidar measurement of the parameters of the atmospheric sodium layer at a height of 80-100 km are analyzed. An algorithm of lidar signal processing is proposed, and a multichannel system for the recording and processing of lidar data in real time is described. A block diagram of this system is presented.
