Low-cost direct detect spaceborne LIDAR
LIDAR has widely been used to create very accurate 3-D models for use in a wide range of commercial, governmental and nonprofit applications. This thesis identifies how recent advancements in Nd:YAG fiber lasers and InGaAs GmAPDs could be applied to space-borne missions, enabling low-cost solutions that fulfill NASA’s ICESat-2 and United States ...

Performance Analysis of Spaceborne Sodium Fluorescence Doppler Lidar
The spaceborne sodium Doppler lidar can be developed to measure global wind, temperature and sodium number density in the mesopause and lower thermosphere region. In order to analyze the feasibility of the lidar, simulation calculations about backscattering signals and measurement accuracy have been done in this paper.
