Doppler LIDAR Developments for Aeronautics
Detecting atmospheric hazards such as wake vortices, turbulences, wind shear or wind gusts would improve flight and airport traffic safety. Moreover, to face the current and future challenges of air traffic growth in terms of environment, safety and costs, one of the major challenges is to increase runway throughput by optimizing the distance ...
