Electro-Optical Imaging, Inc. / Electro-Optical Tracking Systems Considerations George Downey, E-O Imaging, Inc. Dr. Larry Stockum, Battelle ABSTRACT This tutorial paper discusses the performance requirements and design parameters for Electro-Optical Tracking Systems . Descriptions of Tracking Systems for range instrumentation are discussed. The relationships between the performance requirements, target characteristics and the system optical sensors, Tracking algorithms, pedestal dynamics, servo control loops, and ancillary equipment are examined. The design Considerations related to the operator interfaces are also discussed. 1. INTRODUCTION An Electro-Optical Tracking system can be viewed as having certain essential elements which can be structured in a variety of configurations to meet specific mission requirements. As a minimum, a Tracking system contains: A sensor package for detection of the target s radiated energy, a positioning system to follow the target trajectory, and a method of commanding the positioning system .
