Combat System Sensors - Volume 1
This section addresses those attributes which are common to broad classes of sensor system. For example, the external environment dramatically affects the performance of all sensor systems. Similarly, the ability to perform critical functions such as detection or tracking, can be related to certain universal sensor characteristics in an unambiguous fashion. Among these common attributes are the characteristics of observable signals, the effects of propagation through the environment, and the functions desired to be performed. Other than their use as examples, specific sensor technologies are not discussed until Part II. Specifically, this section describes a set of tools that can … Continue Reading
