Abstract

This paper presents the measurement requirements and algorithms that characterize forward looking IR (FLIR) imaging systems in the Martin Marietta EO Characterization Lab. The algorithms presented automate the following major measurement requirements: signal transfer functions, 3D noise, noise equivalent temperature difference, fixed pattern noise, nonuniformity, modulation transfer function, and minimum resolvable temperature difference.
