The geometrical form factor (GFF) of a lidar system with the stepwise laser beam profile is investigated theoretically and in computer calculation for the case with a narrow-band interference optical filter. A case of a portable lidar is chosen as a model of the calculation, and the effects of distance between optical axes of the laser and the telescope, their crossing angle, and the iris position are considered. In addition, optimum design of the lidar construction is discussed.
