MULTIMODE SHORT WAVELENGTH INFRARED AND RADIO-FREQUENCY SEEKER

摘要

A multimode seeker (10) includes a radio-frequency antenna (12) and a controller (32). The radio-frequency antenna (12) comprises a substrate (26) and an electrically conductive film deposited on the substrate. The substrate (26) is transparent to short wavelength infrared radiation. The electrically conductive film is configured to transmit and receive radio-frequency radiation and is transparent to the short wavelength infrared radiation. The controller (32) is configured to receive and interpret data from the radio-frequency antenna (12).
