Abstract

The wide spread development of electro-optical system from telecommunication to space technologies has increased the demand of customized optics. In the present work, the design of a wide-angle laser range sensor has been presented. The dependence of field of view (FOV) and active area of sensor on effective focal length of the optical system has been demonstrated. A receiving optical system is designed with a wide FOV of 40°, having detector active area of 5 mm. A good agreement is found between the realized and designed optical system. Numerical simulation has shown a strong dependence of refractive index on the performance of the system.
