Abstract
We present the description of a combined DIAL system based on discharge excimer lasers designed in the Physics Instrumentation Center (PIC) of the General Physics Institute. The block-diagram of the lidar system is presented in Fig. 1. The lidar comprises two sub-systems: (i) a combined stratospheric–tropospheric lidar for measurements in the 3–45 km range, and (ii) another lidar for measurements in the low troposphere (0.3–4 km range).
