Tomographic Scanning Imaging Seeker
Abstract
The tomographic scanning (TOSCA) imaging seeker concept is presented. The system is based on conical scan reticle seeker optics modified with an eccentrically rotating circular aperture. After signal preprocessing, an image is extracted using tomography reconstruction techniques. Simulation results are provided to show the reconstruction quality. The concept, using a single pixel and a simple rotating axis scan mechanism, allows for a simple, low-cost, software-driven imaging sensor. Imaging capabilities against air targets are discussed.
