The ROSCOE Manual. Volume 1-2. A Simplified ROSCOE Input Scheme

摘要

The ROSCOE computer code is designed specifically to be the 'laboratory standard' for evaluating nuclear effects on radar and optical sensors. The program provides a means for (1) evaluating radar acquisition, discrimination, and tracking performance in a nuclear environment; (2) determining optical (SWIR) effects; (3) measuring the degradation of microwave satellite communications systems due to transmission through nuclear disturbed regions; (4) estimating various radar and optical propagation error sources; and (5) computing specific phenomenological data. The ROSCOE documentation consists of a number of volumes, including user manuals (Volumes 1 through 3), systems code descriptions (Volumes 4, 20, and 21-1), code validation documents (Volumes 6 and 23), and phenomenology code descriptions (all others). This document has been written as an extension to the user manuals. It describes a simplified input scheme for running a subset of ROSCOE problems. It is intended for the user who only occasionally runs the code or would like to run a small problem. (Author)
