Abstract
A new range equation for laser range finder using Gaussian beam profile is proposed. Unlike conventional range equations, the proposed equation can be applied to any ranging conditions, regardless of a beam size of incident light upon targets. We also show an operational coefficient for estimating the returned power using the proposed Gaussian beam range equation as an empirical correction factor.
