Abstract

This paper reviews the recent completion of an instrument capable of laser radar simulation and measurements of the monostatic bidirectional reflection from coherent polarized radiation with the target in the far-field of the illumination and the detector in the far-field of the target. This instrument can provide as low as 10^-6 steradians^-1 sensitivity for 10.6 micrometers and also account for optical phenomena such as speckle, polarization effect and the opposition effect.
