This book was released on 1973 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A technique was developed for improving the precision of laser ranging measurements of ground-to-satellite distances. The method employs a mode-locked laser transmitter and utilizes an image converter tube equipped with deflection plates in measuring the time of flight of the laser pulse to a distant retroreflector and back. Samples of the outgoing and returning light pulses are focussed on the photocathode of the image converter tube, whose deflection plates are driven by a high-voltage 120 MHz sine wave derived from a very stable oscillator. From the relative positions of the images produced at the output phosphor by the two light pulses, it is possible to make a precise determination of the fractional amount by which the time of flight exceeds some large integral multiple of the period of the deflection sinusoid.

This book was released on 2018-08-14 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The airborne laser ranging system is a multibeam short pulse laser ranging system on board an aircraft. It simultaneously measures the distances between the aircraft and six laser retroreflectors (targets) deployed on the Earth's surface. The system can interrogate over 100 targets distributed over an area of 25,000 sq, kilometers in a matter of hours. Potentially, a total of 1.3 million individual range measurements can be made in a six hour flight. The precision of these range measurements is approximately + or - 1 cm. These measurements are used in procedure which is basically an extension of trilateration techniques to derive the intersite vector between the laser ground targets. By repeating the estimation of the intersite vector, strain and strain rate errors can be estimated. These quantities are essential for crustal dynamic studies which include determination and monitoring of regional strain in the vicinity of active fault zones, land subsidence, and edifice building preceding volcanic eruptions.

This book was released on 1969 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report describes a successful laser ranging experiment which was conducted on the retroreflector satellite GEOS A on 23 May 1969 at the Mount Haleakala Observatory, Maui, Hawaii. A total of 99 returns were obtained out of 113 laser firings during the sunlit portion of the satellite's pass. The returns were obtained from ranges of 2326 to 2937 km. The observed ranges are compared to predictions made by the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory, and it is found that the agreement is excellent. Acquisition and tracking techniques used during the ranging experiment are discussed. Photographs of the satellite and of an outgoing laser pulse (as seen on a television monitor) are presented. A brief description of the laser system and relevant Observatory support systems is also included along with some information on retroreflector satellites. (Author).
