Abstract

To perform near-infrared fuel analysis a portable, ruggedized, near infrared spectrometer is used. Chemometrics using Principal Component Analysis and Partial Least Squares or Soft Independent Modeling of Class Analogies Method (SIMCA) are performed. The technology is manufactured by Micro Optical Systems, Inc., of Suffolk, VA under an Army Small Business Innovation Research Phase 2 award in 2001.
