.i.idar hard target calibration: preliminary studyof reference materials for 2p111 l.idars... Consequently, a clear need has been recognized to establish a broad and reliable data base of surface properties of candidate calibration target materials (field, transfer and standard) at wavelengths around 2pm using established hard target calibration methodology ‘3)....
Polarization discrimination for improving foliage-camouflaged target detectionAbstract — Many realizations of foliage around a hard target can be obtained using the coherent scattering model in a Monte Carlo simulation....
Optimum polarization for foliage camouflaged target discrimination using a genetic algorithmThe coherent scattering model can be run for many realizations of foliage around a hard target to obtain the statistical variations of foliage and target response in a Monte Carlo simulation....
Optical and laser differential absorption remote detection of tatp peroxide based explosivesA triacetone triperoxide cloud associated with a triacetone triperoxide explosive attached to a hard target is remotely detected by operating differential-absorption lidar lasers to transmit a laser beam toward the hard target at differing wavelengths....
