INFRARED BACKGROUND NOISE MEASURING PROGRAM AT THE U. S. NAVY UNDERWATER SOUND LABORATORY

Abstract

A short history is presented of the infrared background noise measuring program at the U. S. Navy Underwater Sound Laboratory. A discussion is given of the laboratory's participation in the 1959-1960 Interservice Radiation Measuring Program (IRMP 59/60). Wiener Spectra obtained during the September and November 1959 measuring period are shown. In addition, other measurements, technical problems encountered during IRMP 59/60, and future plans are discussed briefly. (Author)
