Abstract
A method and control system for optimizing active measurements are presented. In an embodiment, the method includes emitting at least one active signal in at least one direction; determining whether a return signal is detected for each of the at least one active signal; upon detecting at least one return signal for the at least one active signal: measuring a strength of each return signal; comparing the measured strength of each return signal to at least one optimal return signal strength; and determining, based on the comparison, an optimized configuration for active measurement emissions in one or more directions.
