Popis: Coherent Doppler lidar (CDL) has been a powerful instrument to measure atmospheric wind velocity. In this work, an 1.5 μm all-fiber pulsed CDL has been developed and deployed to measure wind profiles in campaign experiment in 2018. The CDL has 0.1-5 km detection range with range resolution of 30 m, temporal resolution of 16 s at Velocity-Azimuth-Display (VAD) mode. Field experiments were implemented and the wind vector profiles were retrieved. As compared with sounding balloon, the discrepancy of wind speed and direction are nearly 0.7 m/s and 5 degrees, respectively. It shows that the CDL is a powerful tool for wind speeds measurement in lower atmospheric troposphere.
