Improvement of radiation measurement precision for target by using atmosphere-corrected coefficients
A method to improve the infrared radiation measurement precision of a target based on correcting atmospheric transmittance by using an atmosphere-corrected coefficient was proposed. A measuring model of infrared radiation characteristics for the target was established
and the measuring method of the infrared radiation characteristics for the target was given. The method defines the ratio between the really-measured atmospheric transmittance at a short distance and the calculated one by using MODTRAN as an atmosphere-corrected coefficient. Then
it obtains the enhanced atmosphere-corrected coefficient according to the different quantitative relationships between the short distance and other distance. Finally
it uses the enhanced atmosphere-corrected coefficient to correct the long distance atmospheric transmittance and to invert the radiation of the target
so that to obtain the radiation characteristics of the target. A middle wavelength infrared camera was calibrated and the measuring experiment of the infrared radiation characteristics for the target was carried out by the middle wavelength infrared camera and a black body. The results show that the radiation measurement precision obtained by using MODTRAN is about 20% and that obtained by the proposed method is about 8%. It demonstrates that the radiation measurement precision has improved greatly as comparing with that of the conventional method.
