Description
Summary:Object and purpose of research. This paper discusses the ways to improve current calculation method for reflection parameters during remote laser detection and ranging by means of a dihedral reflector with Lambert surfaces equal to reflection coefficients of each surface as per the generalized method of radiative balance. The study also discusses the evolution of optical methods and analytical research tools in this domain, as well as laser signature calculation for various ships and other structures. Subject matter and methods. Analytical calculation methods, software, calculation methods for remote laser detection and ranging taking into account optical parameters and reflection coefficient of dihedral reflectors used to calculate laser signature of ship structures. Main results. Improved efficiency and accuracy of calculation methods for laser detection and ranging with respect to dihedral reflectors for surface ships. Conclusion. Calculation methods of remote laser detection and ranging suggested in this paper offer additional capabilities in lidar signature measurements of ships and other structures.
