Research abstract

DIODE ARRAY LASER RADAR PROVIDES MANY ADVANTAGES INCLUDING SMALL WEIGHT/SIZE, HIGH EFFICIENCY, FAST STEERING FOR MULTIPLE TARGETS DETECTION AND TRACKING, 0.1 METER RANGE RESOLUTION, AND EXCELLENT RELIABILITY. E-TEK HAS PREVIOUSLY INVESTIGATED, ANALYZED, COMPUTED, AND DESIGNED OPTICAL LASER PHASED-ARRAY TO DEMONSTRATE ITS FEASIBILITY, VALIDITY, AND VIABILITY. TO FURTHER OPTIMIZE THE PRACTICAL SYSTEM PERFORMANCE, POLARIZATION AND ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS SHALL BE MINIMIZED; SYSTEM/COMPONENTS/DEVICES, ISOLATION, BEAM FORMING, AND PACKAGING SHALL BE OPTIMIZED; AND SUBSYSTEM MODULARITY SHALL BE INVESTIGATED. THEREFORE, ALL PRACTICAL ISSUES COST EFFECTIVE PHASED-ARRAY LASER RADAR WILL BE INVESTIGATED, RESOLVED, AND OVERCOME. MULTIPLE TARGETS OF 10 TO THE 4TH POWER WITH DISTANCE OF 10 TO 3,000 KM, AND COVERAGE OF MORE THAN 20 DEGREES STERIAN ANGLE, WILL BE INCLUDED IN THE RADAR SYSTEM DESIGN. ACQUISITION TIME OF 1 NS AND POINTING/TRACKING ACCURARY OF BETTER THAN 0.5 URAD ARE ALSO DESIGN GOALS.
