SAL seeker with spatial and temporal sensors

A system and method for a semi-active laser seeker combining a temporal and a spatial sensor to form a seeker with a wide angle FOV and low angle error for use with spinning projectiles with spin rates of up to 300 Hz. The FOV is about 40 degrees and the angle error is less than 0.1 degrees. The see...

Zusammenfassung:A system and method for a semi-active laser seeker combining a temporal and a spatial sensor to form a seeker with a wide angle FOV and low angle error for use with spinning projectiles with spin rates of up to 300 Hz. The FOV is about 40 degrees and the angle error is less than 0.1 degrees. The seeker utilizes a CCA and fits into a small, low cost package, of about 1.5 in3 or less.
