OPTICAL DEVICE FOR MEASURING ANEMOMETER PARAMETERS

摘要

The general field of the invention is that of optical devices designed for measuring anemometer parameters such as speed and temperature, the device being mounted on an aircraft and comprising an optical emission module illuminating the outside air, an optical reception module capable of receiving the light scattered by the air molecules, optical means forming a reference path and computing means connected to the reception module. The optical reception module comprises optical mixing means for mixing a portion of the beam originating from the reference path and a portion of the scattered light beam. The optical emission and reception means are arranged so that the reception device collects the light originating from the Brillouin-Mandel'shtam scattering.
