Abstract
We consider the analysis and results of a laser remote velocity sensing experiment in which both the longitudinal and transverse velocity components at one location were simultaneously measured from a range of 33 m. Fully coherent homodyne detection was used with a test target that simulates many aspects of distributed atmospheric aerosol targets.Keywords
