Abstract

A solution is proposed, which combined with FSO communication and laser ranging in order to effectively integrate two payloads. It is a transformation of feedback pulsed laser ranging. Laser ranging hardware and FSO communication hardware share a lot in common. Detailed description of working principle, error analysis and elementary experiment result is also included. The further analysis indicates that the measurement precision can reach sub-millimeter by counting more ranging period. Moreover, when temperature varies 30°C, the measure distance varies 2.25cm. In this case, temperature control is necessary for sub-millimeter measurement.
