Background
With the wide application of the laser radar remote sensing technology in high and new technical fields such as atmospheric environment monitoring, aerospace, communication, navigation and positioning, more and more attention is paid at present. The whole laser radar system can be divided into three parts, namely laser emission, echo signal receiving, collecting and controlling, wherein laser emitted by a laser generates a backscattering signal under the action of aerosol in the atmosphere and various atmospheric components, and the backscattering signal is received by a detector and subjected to data collection processing and then is inverted to obtain atmospheric related parameters so as to realize different detection requirements.
In a lidar system, the optical coaxiality of the transmit and receive optical paths is a difficult problem that must be addressed. In practical applications, the change of environmental factors and mechanical vibration can cause the deviation of the optical axis, thereby leading to the invalidation of a large number of measurement signals and causing errors in the measurement of the signals. Therefore, before each measurement using the laser radar, the coaxial adjustment of the transmitting and receiving optical path is required, and the main mode of the coaxial adjustment is to manually perform fine adjustment on the reflecting mirror or the reflecting prism so as to realize the deflection of the optical path. However, the method has higher requirements on the adjustment and fixing structure of the reflector, needs to perform fine adjustment operation by means of a precise optical adjustment bracket and a level instrument, is time-consuming and tedious, has higher difficulty and has poorer environmental adaptability.

In a coaxial transmitting and receiving system of CN201110088354.2 laser radar and a coaxial adjusting method of the system, the pitching and the orientation of a first reflector are controlled by the rotation of a motor, the image centroid position collected by a CCD camera is obtained in real time when a laser operates, and the coaxial adjustment is realized by calculating and controlling the deviation of the image centroid position collected when the background light is received.
