Low-Contrast Thermal Resolution Test Targets: A New Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new type of thermal resolution test target optimized to minimize the effects of lateral thermal gradients at low thermal contrast is described. This target consists of thin-film inconel heater strips over an etched silica substrate bonded to an aluminum heat sink. A simple, finite-difference model is used to study how variations in target construction and materials affect the generated thermal resolution test pattern. The construction, testing, and use of this type of target to extend the lower end of the contrast range of a conventional target are described.

Due to the differences between the visible and thermal infrared images, combination of these two types of images is essential for better understanding the characteristics of targets and the environment. Thermal infrared images have most importance to distinguish targets from the background based on the radiation differences, which work well in all-weather and day/night conditions also in land s...

A new automatic target recognition algorithm to recognize and distinguish three classes of targets: personnel, wheeled vehicles and animals, is proposed using a low-resolution ground surveillance pulse Doppler radar. The Chirplet transformation, a time frequency signal processing technique, is implemented in this paper. The parameterized RADAR signal is then analyzed by the Zernike Moments (ZM)...

Super-resolution (SR) aims to overcome the ill-posed conditions of image acquisition. SR facilitates scene recognition from low-resolution image(s). Generally assumes that high and low resolution images share similar intrinsic geometries. Various approaches have tried to aggregate the informative details of multiple low-resolution images into a high-resolution one. In this paper, we present a n...
