Gluing Lidar Signals Detected in Analog-to-Digital and Photon Counting Modes
Lidar is one of the most effective tools for atmospheric remote sensing. For a ground-based lidar system, the backscattered light usually has large dynamic range.

Thermal light with enhanced oscillating bunching in field-tested photon-counting LIDAR [PDF]
Traditional Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) systems rely on a modulated light source to encode information in the probe signal to measure distances. Alternatively, thermal LIDAR uses non-modulated thermal sources of bunched light.

Geiger-mode single-photon LiDAR is an important tool for long-distance three-dimensional remote sensing. A planar-array-based photon counting LiDAR that uses 32-by-32 fiber arrays coupled to an optical lens as a transceiver unit was developed.

Airborne or space-borne photon-counting lidar can provide successive photon clouds of the Earth’s surface. The distribution and density of signal photons are very different because different land cover types have different surface profiles and ...

Performance Comparison of Multipixel Biaxial Scanning Direct Time-of-Flight Light Detection and Ranging Systems With and Without Imaging Optics [PDF]
The laser pulse detection probability of a scanning direct time-of-flight light detection and ranging (LiDAR) measurement is evaluated based on the optical signal distribution on a multipixel single photon avalanche diode (SPAD) array.

FLASH LiDAR SINGLE PHOTON IMAGING OVER 50 KM [PDF]
In order to demonstrate the feasibility of single-photon imaging of flash lidar in the permanent shadow area of the moon, a set of space-based single-photon imaging system is designed, including the lidar based on VCSEL array, the optical emitting system
