Analysis and development thinking on the application of airborne blue-green lidar in MCM operation
Due to its excellent concealment and difficulty in deployment and removal,mines have become a recognized chal-lenge for the world navy in MCM operation.Airborne blue-green Lidar technology is one of the new technologies in ocean explo-ration.Due to its smaller impact on shallow water environments compared to traditional mine detection payloads,it can be used as a new type of mine detection payload to compensate for the shortcomings of traditional detection methods in shallow water ar-eas.With the development of unmanned equipment,unmanned aerial vehicles equipped with airborne blue-green Lidar for mine detection will become one of the new mine detection methods in MCM operation.By analyzing the current development status of airborne blue-green Lidar in MCM operation at home and abroad,combined with the detection and positioning principles of air-borne blue-green Lidar,this paper summarizes the application characteristics and combat effectiveness of unmanned aerial vehi-cles carrying blue-green Lidar in MCM operation.Finally,the development trend of future airborne blue-green Lidar technology is analyzed and forecasted based on the requirements of MCM operation.
