Abstract:

REBTAM is a developmental model which relates tactical and meteorological parameters directly to sensor performance. Major subroutines consider the impact of target signatures, natural and battlefield atmospheric propagation, and line-of-sight limitations. REBTAM can generate sensor performance profiles which quantify the effectiveness of an electro-optical E-O sensor averaged over the historic distribution of observed weather data in any geographic location.
