SIGNATURE OF THE OBJECT’S THERMAL SIGNALS IN SPATIAL INFORMATION FIELD AS THE “FORCE” FACTOR OF OPTIC-ELECTRONIC TRACKING SYSTEMS CONTROL

V.V. Kulalaev, A.V. Kulalaev

It was proposed the hypothesis on the signature of electromagnetic radiation (EMR) of the object in spatial information field (SIF) presented as the Umov-Pointing vector that acts as the “force” factor of field control by adjustment forces of receiving system of any spatial observer (SO). There was performed theoretical and experimental confirmation of correctness of the proposed hypothesis for vector signature of thermal signal from any SIF object at the temperature of To > 0 that was confirmed on example of control on optic-electronic tracking systems of IR-range optic-electronic tracking and homing systems (OTHS). The results of the works can be applied during research of the methods of noise immunity of OTHSs of different types as well as during development of the optic-electronic countermeasure systems (OECS) for protection of heat-emitting objects from destruction by OTHS, including commercial and civil aircraft.
