Abstract
LIDAR measurement system with a LIDAR transmitting unit and a LIDAR receiving unit, which is configured in a focal-plane-array arrangement, wherein the LIDAR receiving unit has a plurality of sensor elements and wherein the LIDAR transmitting unit has a plurality of emitter elements, wherein a plurality of sensor elements form a macrocell, wherein the macrocell is associated with a single emitter element, wherein the distance between two adjacent emitter elements is unequal to an integer multiple of the distance between two adjacent sensor elements.

A LIDAR measurement system with a LIDAR transmitting unit and a LIDAR receiving unit, which is configured in a focal-plane-array arrangement, wherein
- the LIDAR receiving unit has a plurality of sensor elements and wherein
- the LIDAR transmitting unit has a plurality of emitter elements, wherein
- a plurality of sensor elements form a macrocell, wherein the macrocell is associated with a single emitter element,
- wherein the distance between two adjacent emitter elements is unequal to an integer multiple of the distance between two adjacent sensor elements.
The LIDAR measurement system with a LIDAR transmitting unit and a LIDAR receiving unit, which is configured in a focal-plane-array arrangement, wherein
- the LIDAR receiving unit has a plurality of sensor elements and wherein
- the LIDAR transmitting unit has a plurality of emitter elements, wherein
- a plurality of sensor elements form a macrocell, wherein the macrocell is associated with a single emitter element, wherein
- the emitter elements and the macrocells are respectively arranged apart in a row-column arrangement and wherein
- the sensor elements are likewise arranged in a row-column arrangement,
- wherein the number of rows of sensor elements (26) of a plurality of adjacent macrocells is unequal to the integer multiple of the associated emitter elements.
The LIDAR measurement system with a LIDAR transmitting unit and a LIDAR receiving unit, which is configured in a focal-plane-array arrangement, wherein
- the LIDAR receiving unit has a plurality of sensor elements and wherein
- the LIDAR transmitting unit has a plurality of emitter elements, wherein
- a plurality of sensor elements form a macrocell, wherein the macrocell is associated with a single emitter element, wherein
- the emitter elements and the macrocells are respectively arranged apart in a row-column arrangement and wherein
- the sensor elements are likewise arranged in a row-column arrangement, having a number of rows of N emitter elements and associated N macrocells, wherein the number of rows of sensor elements of the N macrocells is determined by (m·N)+k, wherein m is an integer and k is an integer between 1 and N−1.
