PREFERRED TERM

Rayleight fit test  

DEFINITION

  • This checkup tells us the quality of the signals in the far range. Especially analog signals show distortions there. The Rayleigh-fit is a normalization of the range corrected lidar signal to the calculated attenuated molecular backscatter coefficient (Rayleigh signal) in a range where we assume clean air without aerosols and where the calculated signal fits the lidar signal sufficiently good.
