Abstract:

The ROSCOE computer code is designed specifically to be the laboratory standard for evaluating nuclear effects on radar and optical sensors. This paper presents 1 a description of the optical code interface structure and 2 a review of the major tasks performed by GRC-the modeling of inhomogeneous regions. The first part describes the optics code structure and the system simulation methodology, and presents some sample outputs of targets detected against inhomogeneous striated nuclear debris, whose characterization is in terms of an exponential autocorrelation function for integrated radiance. Separate exponentiation decorrelation lengths are used along and perpendicular to the earths magnetic field, and time decorrelation is also exponential.
