A four-quadrant wind imaging interferometer is a new generation of wind imaging interferometer with the valuable features of being monolithic, compact, light, and insensitive to temporal variations in the source. Its applications include remote sensing of the wind field of the upper atmosphere and observing important dynamical processes in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere. In this paper, we describe a new phase step determination approach based on the Lissajous figure, which provides an efficient, accurate, and visual method for the characterization and calibration of this type of instrument. Using the data from wavelength or thermal fringe scanning, the phase steps, relative intensities, and instrument visibilities of four quadrants can be retrieved simultaneously. A general model for the four-quadrant wind imaging interferometer is described and the noise sensitivity of this method is analyzed. This approach was successfully implemented with four-quadrant wind imaging interferometer prototypes, and its feasibility was experimentally verified. |
