Surface Shape Measurement by OFDR Using Wavelength Swept Light Source – Actual Analysis Method and Measurement Examples

This white paper explains the configuration of an OFDR measurement system using a wavelength swept light source as well as the measurement procedure. Moreover, it describes large distance measurement of the surface shape of a large car in one scan series without moving the measurement system around the vehicle.
