Coherent Doppler wind lidar has made significant progress in wind profile measurement because of its high temporal and spatial resolution. All-fiber Coherent Doppler wind lidar has caused most interest in mobile wind detection due to its excellent stability and reliability. A theoretical model was analyzed based on the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) function, the SNR of continuous-wave and pulsed lidar with different focusing distances was evaluated. A 1550 nm all-fiber mobile Doppler wind lidar was designed for wind profile measurement. The system consists of a narrow-linewidth seed laser, a single-mode fiber amplifier, transceiver optics, and a data processing system. In order to verify the performance of the mobile laser lidar, a velocity calibration experiment was carried out on a moving car with a speed of 10-30 m/s in December 2020. The wind velocity of laser lidar and ultrasonic anemometers was measured and compared with a different elevation angle of laser. Results show good agreement between both measurements. The correlation coefficient is great than 0.96, and the standard deviation of velocity is less than 0.79 m/s.
Coherent wind lidar is suitable for multiple scenarios. In this paper, a 1.55μm portable wind lidar with 10kHz 10μJ-level 200ns-pulsewidth output was developed. The theoretical model was established based on signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) function and coherent detection principle. The influence of linewidths and pulse widths of single frequency pulsed laser on the wind velocity measurement was studied and verified in comparison experiments. The blind area of the lidar was also analyzed. Solved from spectrum and SNR distribution in range bins, detection range of the lidar is an important detection parameter. The portable wind lidar reached the detection range to 2km with the inclination of 0°, and the range to 1.5km with the inclination of 90°.
A 2 μm single-frequency, all-solid-state laser is one of the preferred light sources for coherent laser wind lidar and differential absorption lidar. In order to obtain 2 μm single frequency pulse laser with the high energy and hundred nanoseconds pulse width, the Ho:YAG non-planar ring cavity laser pumped by Tm:YLF solid state laser was used as the seed source to design and develop an injection-seeding single frequency Q-switched Ho:YAG pulse laser. A 2090 nm single-frequency pulse laser with an average pulse energy of 18.51 mJ and pulse width of 110.9 ns was obtained at a repetition rate of 200 Hz. The beam quality M2 factors of the output laser are 1.16 in the X direction and 1.25 in the Y direction, and the pulse spectrum width is 4.05 MHz.
