Abstract

An IR flare is used as a source in the half-active IR night- viewer system, and the non-scanning IR micro-photoelectric camera as a sensor. The clear image had been obtained at night. Some IR flares and the automatic testing equipment had been developed. Then the integral radiation character of the IR flares had been measured. Some samples with more kind of the fuel components are manufactured, the wavelength of the IR flare for maximum radiant flux have matched with the responded wavelength of the sensor. The clearly reflective image of the targets had been obtained at 400m and 700m in the field tests. In this paper, the we develop a sample of IR flare as radiant point and characters, measuring system and method and test in our field are introduced.
