Infrared Optical Observability of an Earth Entry Orbital Test Vehicle Using Ground-Based Remote Sensors

Optical design parameters for a ground-based infrared sensor rely strongly on the target’s optical radiation properties. Infrared (IR) optical observability and imaging simulations of an Earth entry vehicle were evaluated using a comprehensive numerical model. Based on a ground-based IR de...
