Abstract:
A light detection and ranging system is presented that includes at least one light source for emitting a light pulse to the surroundings of the light detection and ranging system, at least one monitoring optical sensor for monitoring the emitting of the light pulse by the at least one light source, at least one receiving optical sensor for receiving a light signal from the surroundings of the light detection and ranging system, and at least one signal processing unit for processing the signal of the at least one receiving optical sensor which is characterized in that the at least one signal processing unit comprises a multiplexer at the input for multiplexing between the signal of the at least one receiving optical sensor and the signal of the at least one monitoring optical sensor.
