Abstract: According to one aspect, a coherent lidar system such as a Frequency-Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) lidar system may be provided with a beam steering or scanning arrangement which provides three-dimensional scanning. By providing a beam steering or scanning arrangement which provides an approximately 360 degree range of horizontal scanning, and an approximately twenty degree range of vertical scanning, an FMCW lidar system may achieve a scanning field of view that is similar to that of Time-of-Flight (TOF) lidar systems. A FMCW lidar system with three-dimensional scanning may enable fewer FMCW lidar systems to be used to provide a desired overall scanning field of view, and also achieve a comparable overall scanning field of view as a TOF lidar system substantially without issues such as the significant movement of electrical components.
