1 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

6 Wind Lidar Working Group, 29 June 2005 Welches, OR Comparisons Mass and Power comparisons. (Source - GSFC Doppler Lidar Technology assessment, 2001.) System Total MassTotal Avg. Power Rotating SiC 1.25 m reflective telescope 302 kg260 W Scanning flat mirror>450 kg Rotating Fresnel wedge >450 kg Rotating 1.5-m HOE152 kg130 W 1.5-m ShADOE65 kg 20 W

7 Wind Lidar Working Group, 29 June 2005 Welches, OR Holographic Optics IR

8 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

11 Wind Lidar Working Group, 29 June 2005 Welches, OR 150° Baseline Scan Configuration Satellite nadir ground track Y A = 324 km Y B = 87 km 30° Z = 400 km,  = 40°,  A = 75°,  B = 15°,  C = 45° Y C = 237 km 90° 324 km 237 km 3 tracks, 6 lines of sight 0 90 seconds timing 1278 33 57

12 Wind Lidar Working Group, 29 June 2005 Welches, OR Optical Layout (single HOE)

13 Wind Lidar Working Group, 29 June 2005 Welches, OR UV-A exposure effects

14 Wind Lidar Working Group, 29 June 2005 Welches, OR Wavefront Error Correction Wave-front corrective prescription applied to cover glass Wave-front distortion caused by HOE materials

15 Wind Lidar Working Group, 29 June 2005 Welches, OR Hybrid R-T Combination SHADOE Receiver (One FOV shown) UV Reflection SHADOE IR Transmission SHADOE IR Focal Plane UV Focal Plane
