Lag Angle Compensation in a Space Borne Scanning Lidar

Abstract

The so-called 'lag angle' is inherent in any spaceborne scanning lidar system. It is also important in systems where the scanning causes a significant pointing error during the laser interrogating pulse echo time. In a heterodyne lidar system, the lag angle, if uncompensated, will significantly reduce the signal-to-noise ratio. An investigation of lag angle is presented.
