Abstract:
Disclosed herein are a number of example embodiments that employ controllable delays between successive ladar pulses in order to discriminate between “own” ladar pulse reflections and “interfering” ladar pulses reflections by a receiver. Example embodiments include designs where a sparse delay sum circuit is used at the receiver and where a funnel filter is used at the receiver. Also, disclosed are techniques for selecting codes to use for the controllable delays as well as techniques for identifying and tracking interfering ladar pulses and their corresponding delay codes. The use of a ladar system with pulse deconfliction is also disclosed as part of an optical data communication system.

Claim (Index 11):
The system of  claim 10  wherein the processor is further configured to:\n classify interfering ladar signals sharing the same different delay code between direct interfering ladar signals and echo interfering ladar signals for the same different delay code based on comparative magnitudes of the interfering ladar signals sharing the same different delay code such the larger magnitude is classified as the direct interfering ladar signal and the smaller magnitude is classified as the echo interfering ladar signal; \n determine a time delay between the classified direct interfering ladar signal and the classified echo interfering ladar signal; and \n track a location for the other ladar system that produced the classified direct interfering ladar signal and the classified echo interfering ladar signal based on the determined time delay.
