Electro-Optical Design of Imaging Payload for a Remote Sensing Satellite

Remote sensing using small spacecraft arising from multi-objective economic activity problems is getting more and more developed. These satellites require very accurate pointing to specific locations of interest, with high reliability and small latency. The space borne imaging systems always attempted to achieve the highest ground resolution possible with the available technology at the given t...

Estimation of electro-optical payload performance

Evaluation of the performance of electro-optical payload within the laboratory is discussed. This method is valid for the system, which has output in the form of electrical signal though the input is optical in nature. The methodology enables the evaluation of entire configuration of electro-optical payload comprising of lens system, photo detecting device (one or two dimension array) and proce...

Aerosol Satellite Remote Sensing Aerosol Satellite Remote Sensing

A new aerosol retrieval algorithm is presented which computes the spectral opti-cal depth over the ocean from spaceborne radiometers. It includes both multiplescattering and the bi-directional re ectance of the ocean surface. The algorithmis applied to data from the Along Track Scanning Radiometer 2 (ATSR-2).This radiometer aboard the ERS-2 satellite has 4 bands in the visible a...

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
