Requirements for next-generation integrated photonic FMCW LiDAR sources

article
We introduce a framework for the design of photonic integrated laser sources for FMCW LiDAR, evaluating trade-offs in key laser metrics such as linewidth, chirp linearity and rate, based on laser-system co-design metrics. We review the main performance requirements for mid range applications, with the goal of guiding ongoing research and commercial development.
