SSD Dummy Signal and Noise Generator

Abstract

The need for an artificial source of signal and noise which would simulate the actual output from a pulse-type thermal-radiation detector led to the development of the SSD Dummy Signal and Noise Generator. This unit generated positive and negative lobed pulses of proper shape, duration, and magnitude and thereby reproduced the behavior of a thermal detection ad it crosses a surface target at various ranges.
