Abstract

The horizon infrared surveillance sensor (HISS) project is a multi-year effort to investigate infrared search and track (IRST) technologies in the areas of single scan target detection, single infrared (IR) band target detection and IRST operation within a multi-sensor integration (MSI) context for surface Navy applications. Each phase of the HISS project investigates particular characteristics of IRST operation and provides a system with specific capabilities in order to support scheduled MSI experiments and test events. This paper introduces the HISS project and presents a summary of the system performance achieved during the most recent series of land based tests.
