Classification: CPC G  F | IPC F  G

Claim 7:
8. An apparatus comprising:
at least one processor configured to:
generate, based on an output of a Doppler sensor that is based on (i) local oscillator (LO) illumination and (ii) a first portion of return illumination that comprises coherent flood illumination reflected off a remote object, Doppler shift data for a Doppler shift corresponding to a longitudinal velocity of the remote object relative to a coherent imaging system;
receive, from a focal plane array, light intensity data that is based on (i) a second portion of the return illumination and (ii) Doppler-shifted LO illumination that is based on the Doppler shift data;
generate, based on the light intensity data, an image of the remote object; and
control an orientation of a mirror in order to change a direction of high energy laser (HEL) illumination that is directed at the remote object onto an aimpoint on the remote object.
