Abstract

The solution to the problem of light scattering by atmospheric hexagonal plates and columns, as well as arbitrary shaped particles with sizes from 10 to 100 microns, is presented. The solution is presented as a databank of light backscattering matrices and is intended for interpretation of data from ground-based and space-based lidars. The solution is obtained for typical wavelengths used in laser sensing problems: 0.355; 0.532; 1.064; as well as for the wavelengths of the near infrared range: 1.55; 2 and 2.15 μm. The solution was obtained within the framework of the physical optics method.
