Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of laser wind radar technology, specifically relating to a test device for the wind speed detection range of laser wind radar. Background Technology
[0002] Laser wind radar is based on the Doppler effect of light. A laser beam emitted from a light source encounters molecules or aerosols, generating an echo signal. The frequency shift of this echo signal is then used to infer the three-dimensional wind field. Laser wind radar boasts high spatiotemporal resolution, enabling 3D wind field remote sensing. Its detection range extends from a few meters to thousands of kilometers, and it is suitable for various platforms, including ground-based, vehicle-mounted, airborne, shipborne, and spaceborne systems. It is widely used in aerospace, wind power site selection, wind energy assessment, weather forecasting, and national defense.
[0003] In the actual manufacturing process of laser wind measuring radar, it is necessary to test the wind speed detection range (1 m / s to 40 m / s). Traditional testing methods involve outdoor fixed-focus testing (50 m to 70 m) to record the lowest and highest wind speeds in the atmosphere. This method is dependent on weather conditions and can only be conducted in open outdoor areas, resulting in low efficiency and hindering mass production. To adapt to the mass production of laser wind measuring radar and improve the efficiency of wind speed detection range testing, it is necessary to design a low-cost, easy-to-use, highly efficient, and universal laser wind measuring radar wind speed detection range testing device.
