Abstract
A method, system, and apparatus for a diffractive based coherent aircraft position and anti-collision lighting system may include generating optical source signals in an aircraft lighting system utilizing one or more coherent light sources. The generated optical source signals may be communicated to diffractive optical elements in the aircraft via optical waveguides, and output optical signals may be generated for transmission out of the aircraft via the diffractive optical elements. The lighting system may comprise indicator lights and/or anti-collision lights. The coherent light source may comprise a solid state laser. The diffractive optical elements may be integrated in wingtips and/or a fuselage of the aircraft. The coherent optical sources may be located within a fuselage of the aircraft and/or within wings of the aircraft. The diffractive optical elements may be statically and/or dynamically controlled and may comprise liquid crystals.
