Multilayers clouds monitoring by micro-Joule lidar based on photon counting receiver and diode laser
Original language description
Multilayers clouds layer's horizons have been detected in strong snowing condition by using the micro-Joule eye-safe lidar. Lidar is based on the 1 ?J (30 ns length) pulsed diode laser, which operates with high repetition rate (up to 10 kHz) and silica (Si) photon counting receiver (Single Photon Avalanche Diode, SPAD) from Czech Technical University. Note that the unique low avalanche voltage of Czech SPAD (~ 26-28 Volts), low power consumption (~ 0.2 Watts), the wide (-100 to 20 °C) temperature operation and low weight (~ 0.94 kg) were the main arguments to involve this lidar version into the NASA Mars Polar Lander mission a decade ago in 1999.
