Research abstract
AN INEXPENSIVE, PROGRAMMABLE, 3-D THERMAL TARGET WHICH SIMULATES THE IR SIGNATURE OF VARIOUS VEHICLES IS NEEDED TO ASSIST IN DESIGNING MISSILE SEEKERS, TAILORING IR SIGNATURES TO IMPROVE STEALTH CHARACTERISTICS OF VEHICLES, AND FOR DEVELOPING IR IMAGERY DEVICES. THE PURPOSE OF THIS PHASE I STUDY IS TO DEVELOP A FEASIBLE (P) PROGRAMMABLE (IR) (T) TARGET (OR "PIRT") DESIGN, AND TO PRODUCE A WORKABLE PROTOTYPE COMPONENT IR HEATER MODULE OF THIS DESIGN. THIS WOULD ALLOW A FULL SCALE PIRT TECHNOLOGY DEMONSTRATOR TO BE DEVELOPED IN PHASE II.
