Coherent Laser Radar System Theory.

Abstract

This program is aimed at developing a system theory for the emerging technology of multifunction coherent CO2 laser radars. It builds upon previous work funded by U.S. Army Research Office contract DAAG29-80-K-0022. Keywords include: Laser radar theory, Radar system theory, and Laser speckle.
