Abstract

The work proposes the original algorithm of the Monte Carlo method for simulating the propagation of laser pulses in the atmosphere taking into account high order scattering. The results of studying the features of pulse transfer and the formation of echo signals during remote sensing of a cloudy atmosphere are discussed. As clouds, cirrus cloudiness represented by a continuous homogeneous layer is considered. The capabilities of the original software developed for modeling lidar echo signals are briefly described.
