OPTOELECTRONIC SYSTEM FOR OPTICAL DETECTION, TRACKING AND IDENTIFICATION OF GROUND AND AIR OBJECTS Russian patent published in 2019 - IPC G01S17/46 

FIELD: location.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to passive location. Optoelectronic system (OES) includes a survey thermal imager (ST) 1 for passive detection of ground and air objects (GAOB) and a television-optical system (TOS) 2 for auto-capturing for tracking and identification of the GAOB type. ST 1 is configured to be mounted on a pull-out or retractable mast and is connected by target designation to television-optical system (TOS) 2 via ECM 6 ST and ECM 3 TC. TOS 2 is installed on the rotary support device (RSD) 2.1 and comprises unit 2.1.1 of optical receivers (OR) and laser range finder 2.1.2. For rapid and simultaneous tracking and recognition of GAOB in far, middle and near zone of their detection OR are equipped with lenses with corresponding different focal distances. ST 1 is connected through ECM 6 control of viewing and processing of thermal imaging signals with ECM 3 tracking and control (ECM TC), the second inputs of which are connected to TOS 2 outputs through multichannel unit 4 of modules for capturing and identifying television video images. ECM 3 TC is connected by power drives RSD 2.1 and with automated workstation 5 of OES operator.

EFFECT: invention allows simultaneous and independent scanning of OES responsibility zone, automatically accompanying and identifying GAOB types; consequence of these technical advantages is increase in efficiency of OES and expansion of its functional capabilities.
