Abstract
Frequency-modulated/continuous-wave imaging systems are a focal plane array (FPA) ladar architecture that is applicable to smart munitions, reconnaissance, face recognition, robotic navigation, etc. In this paper, we report a pixel FPA ladar system we built using a 1550 nm amplified laser diode transmitter and an InAlAs/InGaAs metal-semiconductor-metal self-mixing detector array and the test results attained over the years it was constructed. Finally, we gained 4D imaging (3D range + 1D intensity) of the target with the range of 220 m.
