Abstract
The 1.53-µm coherent differential absorption lidar (DIAL) is demonstrated for the simultaneous profiling of water vapor (H2O) density and wind speed. The optical setup is fiber-based. The wavelength locking circuit can achieve precise locking of 13.0 MHz by the combination of the line center locking to the hydrogen cyanide (HCN) absorption line and offset locking to the H2O absorption wavelength. The measurable range for the simultaneous profiling is up to 1.2 km. The DIAL-measured H2O density is compared with the one measured by an in-situ sensor. Qualitative good agreement is shown with the random error of 0.56 g/m3.
