A Review of Progress and Applications of Pulsed Doppler Wind LiDARs [PDF]
Doppler wind LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) makes use of the principle of optical Doppler shift between the reference and backscattered radiations to measure radial velocities at distances up to several kilometers above the ground.

Pulse Accumulation Approach Based on Signal Phase Estimation for Doppler Wind Lidar [PDF]
Coherent Doppler wind lidar (CDWL) uses transmitted laser pulses to measure wind velocity distribution. However, the echo signal of CDWL is easily affected by atmospheric turbulence, which can decrease the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of lidar. To improve

Development of Synergetic-Active Sensor-System for Evaluation of Observations by Earthcare [PDF]
We develop the synergetic ground-based active-sensor-system for the evaluation of observations by space-borne lidars. The system consists of second version of multi-field-view multiple-scattering polarization lidar (MFMSPL-2), multiple-field-of-view high

Scan strategies for wind profiling with Doppler lidar – an large-eddy simulation (LES)-based evaluation [PDF]
Doppler-lidar scan techniques for wind profiling rely on the assumption of a horizontally homogeneous wind field and stationarity for the duration of the scan.
