    Photon counting laser altimeter for planetary exploration-the technology demonstrator

  • Original language description

    The device should be capable of ranging over distances of 400-1000 km and of acquiring information about the probe altitude above the planet surface and about the surface terrain profile with a precision of the order of 1 m. Recently, the technology demonstrator of the altimeter has been under development at the German Air and Space Agency, Institute of Planetary Research, Germany. The altimeter technology demonstrator is based on a diode pumped frequency doubled Nd:YAG laser delivering 50 mJ at 532 nmin 3 ns long pulses with the repetition rate of 20 kHz. The solid state echo signal detector in photon counting mode will be used. The optical part of the altimeter is scaled down to simulate the real background count rate scenario and to reduce the energy budget link by a factor of 104 at the same time.
