Frequency-Resolved Coherent LIDAR using a Femtosecond Fiber Laser

Abstract
We present a frequency comb-based, frequency-resolved coherent LIDAR (FReCL) that provides higher performance than that of conventional pulsed range/Doppler LIDARs, dramatically reduces local oscillator timing requirements, and compensates for path dispersion.
