Analysis of Advanced CI Applications
Abstract
This report is the last of three technical reports prepared on this contract. It treats two subjects. The first subject is the effect of daylight background on CIS operation. It is concluded that such operation should be feasible and yield acceptable performance for all but the faintest targets of nominal interest to the CIS. The analysis is concerned with shot noise limits and assumes that all matters that could be classified as alignment or adjustment of the system have been properly aligned or adjusted. The second subject is concerned with the definition of a practical form for an UpLink adaptive optics laser transmitter experiment. The critical features of a ground to aircraft and a ground to space experiment are identified, implementation approaches are suggested, and magnitude of relevant parameters are determined.
