Abstract

The only reliable feature of laser light that is not modified by propagation through the atmosphere is its temporal coherence. Based on that premise, Physical Optics Corporation's R & D Division will develop and fabricate a new laser warning device which utilizes a coherence discrimination technique that is capable of detecting the presence of both pulsed and continuous wave laser illumination against a background of much brighter natural and man-made incoherent light sources.
