  1. To single, flat target perpendicular to beam, entirely covering laser footprint, with 20% diffuse target reflectance at laser wavelength, 40 km visibility, 95% detection probability
  2. Standard deviation one sigma to single flat target perpendicular to beam, entirely covering laser
    footprint, at range of 150 m
  3. RMS one sigma to single, flat target perpendicular to beam, entirely covering laser footprint, with 20% diffuse reflectance, at range of 1200 m
  4. Shots-on-the ground at 80° FOV – each measurement may consist of returns from multiple targets
  5. Derived from recorded waveform data in post-processing; minimum return amplitude required for pulse detection, i.e. targets at large distance, with small cross section, or low reflectance may go undetected
  6. True range is derived in post-processing using RDA (range disambiguation) technology for an unlimited number of range zones
  7. Data gaps and banding between range zones are minimized using Adaptive PRF technology based on Riegl Patent No. WO2016/201469 and used under license
  8. 1/e2 value
  9. Flat surface, 20% reflectance, 30km visibility, 100 kHz PRF, 100% output power, 60° FOV
  10. Flat surface, 85% of max. AGL, 80° FOV
  11. Minimum endurance for continuous (uninterrupted) data acquisition, at maximum data rate
