Abstract
In this paper, a scheme of a subpicosecond dispersion range-finder is proposed and an estimate of the precision of rangefinding for large distances in open atmosphere using this device is performed. Using subpicosecond pulses allows us not only to improve range-finding precision, but also to eliminate the effect of air refractive index indeterminacy on the path of propagation quite effectively.
