Abstract:

A theoretical analysis of the problem of interpretation of data on laser sounding of the atmosphere using two stationary lidars with angular scanning of the region under study has been carried out. An analytical solution describing the two–dimensional spatial distribution of the attenuation and backscattering coefficients without using additional information about the functional dependence between the optical characteristics has been obtained. The proposed solution can be used with the aim of constructing new numerical algorithms for laser tomographic sounding with angular scanning.
