Scientific paper

The operation of the Spectrally Agile Staring Sensor (SASS) involves the employment of a telescope system which uses variable spectral band information to detect and identify moving IR sources against the background radiance of the earth. A description is presented of SASS simulation studies. A signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) expression used as a measure of system performance is considered. Attention is given to the target trajectory generator, a target signature model, a background and atmospheric model, a Dual Tunable Fabry-Perot (DTFP) optical filter model, problems of out-of-band leakage transmission, a Focal Plane Array (FPA)/spot convolution model, SNR improvement with high filter transmission efficiency, system performance vs DTFP optical filter parameters, and system performance vs atmospheric conditions.
