    Area of Science:

    • Optics and Photonics
    • Remote Sensing Technologies
    • Signal Processing

    Background:

    • Photon-counting chirped amplitude modulation lidar (PCCAML) systems traditionally use postmixing methods.
    • Postmixing involves mixing detected signal counts with a reference signal after detection by a Geiger mode avalanche photodiode detector (Gm-APD).
    • This approach necessitates a separate mixer and can limit sampling frequency.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce and evaluate a new premixing method for PCCAML systems.
    • To demonstrate the advantages of premixing over postmixing in terms of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and hardware requirements.
    • To enable improved range accuracy and resolution in lidar applications.

    Main Methods:

    • The proposed premixing method directly modulates the sampling gate width of the Gm-APD with the reference signal.
    • Signal mixing is completed before the signal reaches the Gm-APD.
    • This eliminates the need for a separate mixer and reduces demands on sampling frequency.

    Main Results:

    • The premixing method offers greater flexibility and potentially superior SNR compared to postmixing.
    • It allows for a wider modulation bandwidth, leading to enhanced range accuracy and resolution.
    • The method reduces the sampling frequency requirements for the Gm-APD.

    Conclusions:

    • The novel premixing method is the first of its kind reported for PCCAML systems.
    • This technique offers significant advantages over traditional postmixing, including improved performance and hardware simplification.
    • The premixing method is expected to benefit future lidar applications by enhancing performance and enabling wider adoption.
