Abstract
A systematic for optimizing an imaging laser radar system is developed based on the modulation schemes and cw-ranging methods known from rad ar techniques and using the link budget formulae of optical communicat ion. An imaging laser ranging system is shown, which was realized by r egarding the opto-electronical components available on the market. Its system performance is demonstrated by measuring a plane surface and a plate with a surface of milled groves spaced equidistantly. Applicati on possibilities of the laser scanning system for non-contacting measu rements are discussed.
