Abstract

Environmental conditions may adversely affect the optical performance of windows used in electro-optic (EO) imaging systems. Recent advances in the sophistication of optical software packages, coupled with finite element analysis (FEA) techniques, enabled the construction of a detailed window model. This model was used to analyze the window parameters that are affected by travelling through the atmosphere at high velocities. This paper presents the results of an analysis performed for a single-pane window used for operation in the mid infra-red (MIR) spectral region.
