← ScienceWhich outcome prevents accurate distance measurement in LiDAR systems?
A)Constructive interference from atmospheric particles✓
B)Diffraction around edges of the lens
C)Polarization shift due to temperature gradient
D)Refractive index change caused by humidity
💡 Explanation
Distance errors arise because constructive interference generates spurious signals from atmospheric backscatter; therefore the system misinterprets returns, rather than diffraction which blurs but doesn't create false positives at other points.
