Abstract

One of the problems that arises when restoring the reflectivity of the target surface from the echo pulse of a navigation lidar is the effect of the tilt of the reflecting target surface on the broadening of the echo pulse. In this paper, a model is proposed that describes the broadening of the reflected echo pulse of a short-range lidar at different angles of incidence of the laser beam on the target. This model also takes into account the main parameters of the lidar, the atmosphere, the reflecting surface of the target and its inclination, which allow calculations to be made in a wide range of conditions.
