Abstract

Usually, the range performance of thermal imagers is predicted by using the static performance model for thermal imaging systems4 from the Night Vision Laboratory NVL. Most range performance models yield results which are quite similar to the results of the NVL-model. Range-performance measurements with different thermal imagers have proved, that the NVL-model must be modified or extended by following points:-cue-identification-aliasing-vertical MRT-moving images - effective MRT
