    Schematic of GI lidar via different detection mechanisms: (A) narrow pulsed GI lidar, (B) heterodyne GI lidar, and (C) pulse-compression GI lidar via coherent detection.
    Image reconstruction results. The signal power to background power ratio σ for columns (1)–(6) is −40, −30, −20, −10, 0, and 10 dB, respectively, and rows (A)–(C) correspond to lidar systems (A)–(C), respectively.
    Comparison among the normalized SNR SNRi/N[(ΔO)min]2 for lidar systems (A)–(C). The numerical results (dashed lines) for lidar systems (A)–(C) come from the simulation results, while theoretical behaviors [Eqs. (10), (14), and (18)] are indicated by three solid lines.
    Comparison among PSNR for lidar systems (A)–(C).
