Abstract

Laser Warning Systems (LWS) are devices designed to ensure protection of different kind of land or sea vehicles or even stationary installations or buildings against laser associated weapon threats. A key component of this system is represented by the laser receiver. Laser receivers are integrated in one or more laser heads mounted on the objective which has to be protected. Each laser receiver covers a field of view, which represents the angular resolution of the system. The present paper presents a laser receiver configuration which allows an extended spectral range covering all the existent laser threats, and also allows a good discrimination between detection of direct and reflected laser beams..
