Measurement of the Concentration of Hydrocarbon Molecules by Raman Light Lidar

  • OPTOPHYSICAL MEASUREMENTS
  • Published:
Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

A lidar equation based on the laser line width and the spread function in a Raman lidar in sounding of hydrocarbon molecules in the atmosphere is obtained. The relative error in measurements of the concentration of test molecules is estimated. Isobutane is used as an example of saturated hydrocarbon molecules.
