Signal-to-noise ratio analysis and experimental verification of imaging laser detection system

In light of the escalating threat posed by lasers, there is a growing imperative to investigate high-performance laser detection systems. When juxtaposed with non-imaging alternatives, imaging laser detection systems offer the distinct advantage of superior angular measurement accuracy. However, they concurrently impose heightened demands on system efficacy. This study undertakes theoretical computations pertaining to the pivotal technical parameters and signal-to-noise ratio of imaging laser detection systems. It furnishes the methodologies and outcomes of these calculations, subsequently subjecting them to empirical validation on the ground. Through experimentation, the validity of the established theoretical computation approach was affirmed, highlighting its utility in informing the optical system design and detector selection processes of laser detection systems. This integrative approach bears significant implications for advancing the overall performance inquiry of such devices.
