A plurality of light pulses having different optical frequencies from each other are generated from a laser beam output from a light source (1), each of the light pulses radiated to the space and then scattered by each of the observation targets is received as scattered light, and multiplexed light of each of the scattered light and the laser beam is detected. The signal processing device (15) includes: a Doppler frequency calculating unit (16) to calculate a Doppler frequency that is included in an optical frequency of each of the scattered light and due to movement of each of the observation targets from the optical frequencies of the plurality of generated light pulses and a detection signal of each of the multiplexed light; and a speed calculating unit (17) to calculate a relative speed of each of the observation targets from each of the Doppler frequency calculated by the Doppler frequency calculating unit (16).

    摘要: The measurement accuracy of the wind speed at a long distance is improved without lowering a wind speed measurement rate at a short distance. A wind measurement lidar device 1 includes: a beam switching unit 8 to switch to another beam direction when beam selection time elapses in one beam direction, the beam selection time being time in which pulses of greater than or equal to a predetermined minimum number of pulses are generated; an integrated spectrum storage unit 12d to store an integrated spectrum obtained by integrating spectra for each of wind speed measurement sections being a combination of a beam direction and a time interval; spectrum integrating units 12c, 12e to generate an integrated spectrum by integrating, for each of the wind speed measurement sections, a plurality of spectra obtained from a plurality of the pulses transmitted in succession in a beam direction and an integrated spectrum being stored in the integrated spectrum storage unit; a wind speed calculating unit 12h to calculate the wind speed when the SN ratio of the integrated spectrum is greater than or equal to a first threshold value; and a stored integrated spectrum correcting unit 12j to store an integrated spectrum integrated for one of the wind speed measurement sections, for which no wind speed is calculated, into the integrated spectrum storage unit 12d.
