Abstract
The feasibility of a continuous -wave frequency-modulated
radar with a CO- laser as a transmitting source was
investigated.
A developmental system was constructed and tested and
the feasibility of an optical radar utilizing coherent detection
at 10.6 microns was demonstrated. The radar had the
capability of instantaneous range and velocity determination,
