Infrared search and track evaluation model (IRSTEM)
Abstract
This report is the final report covering work performed for the Electro-Optical Technology Program Office at the Naval Research Laboratory under Contract N00173-77-C-0236. The purpose of this contract is to develop a system-level computer code to evaluate the performance of Infrared Search and Track systems. The Infrared Search and Track System Evaluation Model (IRSTEM) resulting from this contract is a deterministic code which models the background scene, atmospheric effects, sensor design characteristics and allows flexibility of incorporating a variety of signal processing options. This report summarizes the work documented in the three quarterly reports submitted under this contract and provides a summary of the theory behind the models used in IRSTEM, a program summary and a user's manual with sample programs.
