Wind Lidar Working Group, 29 June 2005 Welches, OR Doppler Lidar Scanning Telescope Technology Geary Schwemmer Meeting of the Working Group on Space-based Lidar Winds Welches, Oregon June 28- July 1, 2005
2
Wind Lidar Working Group, 29 June 2005 Welches, OR Topics Requirements Constraints Approaches Comparisons Roadmaps
3
Wind Lidar Working Group, 29 June 2005 Welches, OR Requirements Narrow field of view Large collecting area Large off-nadir scan angles (~30-50°) Step-stare preferred over continuous scanning Rapid slew 2 ~orthogonal looks into each sample volume Laser bore-sighting
4
Wind Lidar Working Group, 29 June 2005 Welches, OR Constraints Volume Mass Power Vibration Torque Momentum compensation Space environment
5
Wind Lidar Working Group, 29 June 2005 Welches, OR Approaches Conventional telescope w/ rotating mount Multiple telescopes Scanning flat mirror Rotating wedge prism Rotating Fresnel prism Rotating HOE Multiplexed HOE / SHADOE

Wind Lidar Working Group, 29 June 2005 Welches, OR Hybrid SHADOE Roadmap TRL5 TRL4 TRL3
9
Wind Lidar Working Group, 29 June 2005 Welches, OR Key Remaining Issues Space qualification 2-micron performance (diffraction limited) SHADOE demonstration System trades: –laser –# of FOVs & dwell time / spatial resolution –hybrid configuration Scaling to 1 meter
10
Wind Lidar Working Group, 29 June 2005 Welches, OR Conclusions Conventional scanning telescope too heavy 2-micron & 355 nm requirements very different (size & image quality), perhaps equally difficult HOE technologies offer significant weight and power savings for large apertures Perhaps the lowest TRL of UV Doppler components No show stoppers, but significant risk & development
