LiDAR is one of many active sensor technologies that uses
electromagnetic radiation. Operating in the optical and infrared
wavelengths, it is similar to more-familiar passive EO/IR sensor
technology. It is also similar to radar in that it uses reflected
electromagnetic radiation emitted by the sensor. LiDAR is commonly
used for making high-resolution maps and has applications in
geodesy, geomatics, archaeology, geography, geology, geomorphology,
seismology, forestry, atmospheric physics, laser guidance, airborne
laser swath mapping, and laser altimetry. It is also being used for
control and navigation of some autonomous cars. The first part of
LiDAR Technologies and Systems introduces LiDAR and its history,
and then covers the LiDAR range equation and the link budget (how
much signal a LiDAR must emit in order to get a certain number of
reflected photons back), as well as the rich phenomenology of
LiDAR, which results in a diverse array of LiDAR types. The middle
chapters discuss the components of a LiDAR system, including laser
sources and modulators, LiDAR receivers, beam-steering approaches,
and LiDAR processing. The last part covers testing, performance
metrics, and significant applications, including how to build
systems for some of the more popular applications.
