Multilayer notch optical filters, designed to reject the optical noise emitted in the range between the main UV spectral lines of the atmospheric N2 fluorescence, induced by UHECR via the effect of EAS, are combined in order to have a complementary selectivity in detecting Cherenkov radiation as well. Thus, the detection of the two components is possible at the same time using a mosaic of these optical filters in front of the detector pixel array (camera). By this method the signatures of the fluorescence and Cherenkov radiation could be distinguished. The proposed design can be achieved by a separate dielectric multilayer stack on a glass or absorbing substrate. This method could be applied to the fluorescence telescopes of the AUGER Observatory in a future upgrade.
