Method To Determine And Adjust The Alignment Of The Transmitter And Receiver Fields Of View Of A Lidar System
US Patent:
7064817, Jun 20, 2006
Filed:
Feb 17, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/780814
Inventors:
Randal L. Schmitt - Tijeras NM, US

Assignee:
Sandia Corporation - Albuquerque NM
International Classification:
G01B 11/26, G01C 1/00
US Classification:
35613903, 356 301, 356 401, 35613901, 3561521
Abstract:
A method to determine the alignment of the transmitter and receiver fields of view of a light detection and ranging (LIDAR) system. This method can be employed to determine the far-field intensity distribution of the transmitter beam, as well as the variations in transmitted laser beam pointing as a function of time, temperature, or other environmental variables that may affect the co-alignment of the LIDAR system components. In order to achieve proper alignment of the transmitter and receiver optical systems when a LIDAR system is being used in the field, this method employs a laser-beam-position-sensing detector as an integral part of the receiver optics of the LIDAR system.
Deployable Telescope Having A Thin-Film Mirror And Metering Structure
US Patent:
7782530, Aug 24, 2010
Filed:
Jun 25, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/767607
Inventors:
Leslie J. Krumel - Cedar Crest NM, US
Jeffrey W. Martin - Albuquerque NM, US
Jeffrey W. Martin - Albuquerque NM, US
Assignee:
Sandia Corporation - Albuquerque NM
International Classification:
G02B 23/00, H01Q 15/14, E04H 12/18
US Classification:
359399, 359406, 359408, 343915, 52646
Abstract:
A deployable thin-film mirror telescope comprises a base structure and a metering structure. The base structure houses a thin-film mirror, which can be rolled for stowage and unrolled for deployment. The metering structure is coupled to the base structure and can be folded for stowage and unfolded for deployment. In the deployed state, the unrolled thin-film mirror forms a primary minor for the telescope and the unfolded metering structure positions a secondary minor for the telescope.
