Abstract :
During the last 10 years the DLR container LDA (Laser Doppler Anemometer) was used for many wind related measurements in the atmospheric boundary layer (Kopp et al., 1984). Based on the experiences on airborne cw-Doppler lidar was developed and tested. Wind field measurements in the boundary layer and signal strength studies were performed
