Zusammenfassung:An air data sensor is described, comprising: an acoustic transmitter (101) configured to output an acoustic signal into an airflow; a plurality of acoustic transducers (105) configured to receive the acoustic signal output by the acoustic transmitter; a light source (107) configured to output a light beam into the airflow; a light receiver (111) configured to receive scattered light from the light beam, wherein the light source (107) and the light receiver (111) are bistatic such that a measurement zone is formed away from the air data sensor (100); a plate body (117); and one or more lenses mounted to the plate body (117) and disposed in optical communication with each the light source (107) and the light receiver (111).
