Abstract

An 1.5 micron pulsed Coherent Doppler LIDAR system using all fiber optical components has attracted attention for remote wind sensing application because of its eye-safety, reliability and easy deployment. We report on our key technologies such as fiber based MOPA (Master Oscillator Power Amplification) transmitter, high peak power optical amplification and a real-time signal processing. Some performance results and applications are also provided.
