Abstract
One example includes a quantum lidar system. The system includes a beam generator configured to generate a signal beam and an idler beam and a beam combiner configured to generate a combined optical beam comprising the signal beam and the idler beam. The system also includes a lidar transmitter configured to transmit the combined optical beam to a target and a lidar receiver configured to receive the combined optical beam and a reflected beam of the combined optical beam reflected from the target to generate lidar data associated with the target.
