Abstract
In this paper, to solve the problem of uneven distribution of far-field intensity of Flash Lidar, a method of amplitude modulation for optical phased array (OPA) is proposed, which makes the far-field intensity distribution close to the uniform rectangular distribution. We use the impulse response sequence of Finite Impulse Response (FIR) digital filter designed by the window functions to modulate the amplitude of the OPA. This kind of uniform intensity distribution can simultaneously detect a wide range with the same intensity. The modulation sequence can also be extended to two-dimensional situation. In the case of considering the radiation pattern of optical waveguide, the amplitude modulation sequence can also be modified to obtain the far-field pattern that is close to the uniform rectangular distribution.
