Abstract

Excimer Lasers represent the shortest wavelength lasers currently available for fieldable laser radar systems. Since the imaging resolution of a laser radar is directly proportional to its wavelength, considerable interest in excimer based laser radar has been generated in applications where high resolution imaging is required. In this paper we review some of these applications, the resulting laser radar transmitter and receiver requirements, and possible excimer radar configurations based on presently available technology.
