Wind retrieval algorithm of Rayleigh Doppler lidar
The wind measurement principle and the structure of Rayleigh Doppler lidar are introduced. The method for Fabry-Perot(FP) etalon transmission curve calibration is given. The problem is pointed out that to fit the transmission curve by using Lorentz or Voigt function may induce large error: the relative error would be up to 8% by Lorentz fitting ...
