Abstract

A laser transmissometer is described that is suitable for long path atmospheric extinction measurements. The instrument design incorporates several unique features which greatly enhance the signal to noise ratio of the system. These are apodization of the output beam by conical scan, servo controlled beam aiming and automatic beam width measurement at regular intervals. The system is completely automated and utilizes a micro-computer designed by the DRI for data acquistion and servo control.
