Non-scanning imaging laser Lidar equation

Imaging laser Lidar process is analyzed in this paper, and a large FOV non-scanning imaging laser Lidar equation suitable for received energy calculation is proposed. Every parameters in this equation have distinct physical meaning. These parameters can be obtained by experiments, without experience estimate, or by exist literature material. By Lidar equation analyses, a conclusion that three parameters, atmospheric transmittance, diameter of receiving lens and minimum detectable energy of detector, are important for imaging result. Some parameter measurement experiments are simply introduced in this paper.
