Abstract

A laser warning receiver or detector for the detection of extraneous light not emanating from the laser to be detected. Thus, extraneous light is differentiated from incoming laser light. The laser radiation coming from a laser to be detected is detected on the basis of its time coherent radiation. Simultaneously, the wave length as well as the pulse form or shape are analyzed in spite of any presence of incoherent radiation components.
