Abstract

A nomogram has been developed which permits long range television system trade-offs to be performed quickly and easily. All important scenario, optical, and sensor parameters have been included. The reduction in image contrast and faceplat illuminance due to atmospheric affects and the relationship between the solar spectrum and the photometric units used by tube manufacturers have been accounted for. All these relationships have not been included in existing nomograms.
