Research abstract
An inexpensive aerosol lidar is proposed by combining inexpensive fiber coupled diode laser and photon counting detection technology for air quality monitoring in metropolitan area. The combination of inexpensive light source and high sensitivity photon detection technology developed in the "Micro Pulse Lidar" project will result in a rugged and affordable lidar system for air pollution monitoring and atmospheric studies. A simulation was performed to identify the feasibility of a successful lidar system with currently available fiber coupled diode laser and optical components. The simulation assures the possibility of development of inexpensive aerosol lidar system within current technology bases.
