Research abstract

A PROCEDURE FOR LOCATING WITH HIGH PRECISION THE TRACK OF WEAPONIZED ELECTRON BEAMS BY REMOTE PASSIVE OPTICAL IMAGING OF INFRARED EMISSIONS EXCITED BY THE ENERGETIC PARTICLES IS PROPOSED. PROVEN VECTOR METHODS WOULD BE APPLIED TO LOCATE THE BEAM'S PATH THROUGH THE ATMOSPHERE IN 3 DIMENSIONS FROM THE 2-DIMENSIONAL PROJECTIONS OF ITS RADIATION PATTERN TO SHIPBOARD IMAGING ARRAYS. THE ITERATIVE TRIANGULATION ALGORITHMS REQUIRED ARE TO BE IMPLEMENTED IN A COMBINATION OF DEDICATED SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE TO PROVIDE REAL TIME FEEDBACK OF THE BEAM'S SPATIAL STRUCTURE AND AXIS POSITION TO THE FIRE CONTROL SYSTEM.
