摘要: A wind velocity searching unit 30 is configured so as to, when a spectrum signal calculated by a spectrum calculating unit 22 is one in a range bin having a signal strength less than a first threshold Th1, determine a search center IF of the search scope for a Doppler frequency corresponding to a wind velocity in the range bin by using a wind velocity model selected by a wind velocity model selecting unit 29, and search for the wind velocity in the range bin from the spectrum signal within the search scope whose search center IF is determined thereby. As a result, the probability that the peak of noise is detected erroneously as the peak of the spectrum signal is reduced.

摘要: A method for detecting a shadow condition from a wind turbine and a system for detecting a shadow condition are provided. An atmospheric condition detected from an atmospheric condition detector is compared to a threshold. From the comparison a determination is made that the atmospheric condition is shadow producing. The shadow condition is detected using said determination.

摘要: Embodiments relate to characterizing underwater turbulence. Initially, multispectral laser light (MLL) is generated and then converted to output laser light (OLL). The OLL is received at a polarization rotator that causes the OLL to be emitted in one of multiple modes of polarization. Next, the OLL is directed toward a target medium, where the OLL causes backscattered light to be emitted from the target medium. While using the polarization rotator to switch between the multiple modes of polarization, Stokes parameters of the backscattered light are detected and then used to characterize the underwater turbulence of the target medium.

摘要: A wind measurement lidar includes: an output unit to output a laser beam; a transmitter-receiver to emit the laser beam produced by the output unit into the air, and to receive a scattered beam of the laser beam; a received signal acquiring unit to obtain a received signal through heterodyne detection of the laser beam and the beam acquired via the transmitter-receiver; a controller to control the transmitter-receiver; a storage to store as a noise signal the received signal obtained when the laser beam is controlled so as to be produced, but not to be emitted into the air; a frequency difference unit to subtract the noise signal from the received signal obtained when the laser beam is controlled so as to be emitted into the air; and a wind speed measurer to measure a wind speed from the subtraction result.

摘要: The present invention relates to a lidar measurement system for the detection of the presence and/or motion of particles and/or objects in a space region remote from the lidar measurement system and comprising an interferometer arrangement, as well as to a corresponding method using such a measurement system. The interferometer arrangement comprises a continuous wave laser source (2), a photodetector arrangement (7), and optical components which are adapted to split light (23) emitted by the continuous wave laser source (2), to guide it along a first optical path constituting a measurement branch (4) and along a second optical path, which is separate from the first optical path and constitutes a reference branch (5), and to eventually have it incident in a spatially coherently superimposed manner onto the photodetector arrangement (7). The reference branch (5) has a predetermined optical path length, and the measurement branch (4) comprises a measurement portion (16), in which the light is directed away from the measurement system towards a space region remote from the measurement system and passes through the space region and light backscattered towards the measurement system by particles present in the space region is received again at the measurement system. Further, an evaluation unit (9) is provided which is coupled to the photodetector arrangement (7) and is adapted to receive the detector signal thereof and to determine from the detector signal the presence and/or movement of particles in the remote space region. The continuous wave laser source (2) has a coherence length in the range of 0.1 to 100 m.
