ABSTRACT:
The beam produced by a pulsed laser is directed onto a target and, once reflected, is heterodyned in a mixer with the light signal from a local oscillator. The resulting reception beat signal is applied to a chronometer to measure the distance from the target. A fraction of the transmitted beam is deviated to the mixer and heterodyned with the signal from the local oscillator to produce a transmission beat signal which is stored and then combined with the reception beat signal.
