English

Subject field(s)
  • Various Military Titles
  • Surveillance, Detection and Reconnaissance (Military)
DEF

A passive acoustic system for the detection and localization of small-arms fire at long ranges.

OBS

The system is composed of a three-dimensional microphone array mounted on the rear of the turret of the Coyote light armoured reconnaissance vehicle. The system processes the sound signals and shows the results on a hand-held terminal by means of a graphical and numerical display.

OBS

Ferret provides full 360-degree coverage operating day and night in adverse weather conditions. It has been designed to locate the source of fire up to the effective range of a fired weapon. It calculates the range to the shooter complete coordinates ... The system also and the bullet miss distance. The system also generates a digital log of all small arms fire events ... When a Global Positioning System (GPS) and an orientation sensor [are] used, Ferret is designed to provide the shooter’s complete coordinates ... The system also updates the range and azimuth angle to the shooter in real time. This configuration is well adapted to cases where the acoustic array changes direction while under fire.

DEF

Système acoustique passif servant à détecter et à localiser des tirs d'armes légères à grande distance.

OBS

Le système est composé d'un réseau de microphones tridimensionnels monté à l'arrière de la tourelle du véhicule blindé léger de reconnaissance Coyote. Le système traite les signaux sonores et affiche les résultats sur un terminal de poche sous forme graphique et numérique.

OBS

Ferret assure une couverture complète sur 360 degrés, jour et nuit, même par mauvais temps. Il a été conçu pour localiser la source d'un tir sur toute la distance de portée utile d'une arme à feu. Il calcule la distance qui le sépare du tireur ainsi que la distance d'approche de la balle. Le système génère aussi un journal numérique des tirs détectés [...] Couplé au système global de positionnement par satellite (GPS) et à un capteur d'orientation, Ferret est conçu pour fournir les coordonnées complètes [...] du tireur. Le système met également à jour en temps réel la distance et l'angle d'azimut du tireur. Cette configuration est bien adaptée aux situations où le réseau acoustique change d'orientation pendant qu'il essuie le feu ennemi.

Record 3 2005-10-13

English

Subject field(s)
  • Remote Sensing
OBS

Contrast enhancement. Improving the picture by turning up the contrast. Most digital image display systems allow one to break each ’primitive’ colour into 256 degrees of intensity. An image that uses this entire intensity scale, that is, that contains values coded from 0 to 255, has excellent contrast, for the colour range will extend from black to white and include fully-saturated colours. In contrast, an image that uses a narrow range of numerical values will lack contrast(it will look ’greyish’).

OBS

nonlinear contrast enhancement: term officially approved by the RADARSAT-2 Terminology Approval Group (RTAG).

Key term(s)
  • non-linear contrast enhancement
  • non linear contrast enhancement

French

Domaine(s)
  • Télédétection
CONT

Le rehaussement non linéaire du contraste implique souvent l'égalisation de l'histogramme par un algorithme. La méthode d'étirement non linéaire du contraste a un inconvénient important [:] chaque valeur dans l'image d'entrée peut avoir plusieurs de valeurs dans l'image de sortie.

OBS

rehaussement non linéaire de contraste : terme uniformisé par le Groupe de travail de la terminologie de RADARSAT-2 (GTTR).
