Backscatter based projectile trajectory measurement under daylight conditions

摘要

In recent years the development of a system to detect and measure the trajectory of a projectile by its backscatterusing a laser light source has been presented. The used principle of the described system requires a dark environmentas given at night. In the current paper techniques will be discussed to enable above projectile trajectory measurements under daylight conditions. With this a new system setup under given hardware limitations isderived and described. Experimental results for measurements under daylight conditions will be presented.© (2012) COPYRIGHT Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE).
