I Section 1INTRODUCTION
over the past decade, workers in the optical radiation field have expended consider-able effort in the measurement of the radiation signatures of natural background and alarge quantity of data exists, However, when onie is required to use the data in a systemapplication, certain problems arise. Most detection systems are contrast sensors andthe primary response generated from backgrounds is due to non-homogeneity or contrastswithin the backgrounds. Response to backgrounds can be calculated by spectrally sub-tracting the signatures of selected backgrounds and usinig this data in conjunction withother system parameters. This procedure has been used in the past, however, it oftenleads to erroneous results which can be particularly disastrous if one is attempting toselect an opý.ri~um spectral region of operation which will maximize target to backgroundsignal ratios. Quite often the backgrounds areas which are selected for spectral subtrac-tion are taken from spatially remote portions of the background, at different times of theday, at different site locations, or even with different instrumentation. Any of the afore-mentioned conditions (and others) can produce spectral contrast plots which are unrealisticand maost often, unduly severe.
In view of the aforementioned problems and the desire to obtain data with higherspectral and spatial resolution, a background measurement program was initiated at thePomon Division of General Dyniamics in early 1969. The program ultimately will includethe measurement of a wide variety of natural backgrounds within three principal spectralregions of interest, 0. 2 to 0. 6, 1.5 to 5. 4, and 5 to 15 micrometers.
It is the objective of this report to presenm '. compilation of General Dynamics back-'. ground measurement data gathered during three separate field measurement efforts whichtook place between early 1969 and late 1974. Table L-1 summarizes the type and quantity
[ of data gathered during this time frame,

Section2INSTRUMENTATION.
The spectral data presented in this report were taken with two basic instruments:(1) a rapid-scan, Michelson-type interferometer spectrometel (Figure 2-1), and (2) adispersive-prism-type spectrometer (Figure 2-2). A complete measurement facility washoused in the Cortez Van shown in Figure 2-3. Besides the basic spectrometers, the vanincluded a 10 kW power generator, a search/range radar, VHF/UHF communcations, anIRIG time code generator and search-control unit, a hybrid digital/analog recording sys-tem, a real-time 500 point spectrum analyzer for data assessment, and associated moni-tor and calibration instrumentation for the UV and IR systems.
Either visual-band, near-UV (0.35-0.40p), or near-Ir (0,7-0.9/A) photographs, aswell as mid-IR (3.6-5.414) thermal images of the background areas being examined, were
recorded simultaneous with the spectral measurements. The near-UV photos were ob-tained using a 35-millimeter Nikon camera equipped with Kodak Linagraph Ortho film, a200 mm quartz lens, and a Jena-Schott UG-11/BG-38 dye filter combination. The near-IR photos were obtained using a similar camera equipped with Kodak type IR-135 film,135 mm glass lens, and a Corning No. CS-57-1. 92 optical bandpass filter. The thermalimages were recorded using a Polaroid camera attachment to the CRT display of an AGACorporation Thermovision instrument. The Thermovision utilizes an InSb detector andexhibits a half-power response bandpass of 3.6 to 5. 4 microns.

2.1 INFRARED INTERFEROMETER
The general operation of the infrared interferometer can be explained with the aid ofthe optical schematic shown as Figure 2-4. A standard Michelson interferometer opticalcube is formed by the fixed mirror, the scanning mirror and the bisecting beamsplitter.These optical elements are arranged such that incident radiation entering the system isdivided into two approximately equal beams of transmitted and reflected radiation. Thereflected beam is directed to the fixed mirror and returned to the beamsplitter surface.The second beam iW transmitted to the scanning mirror and also returned to the beam-splitter surface, These two component beams recombine at the beamsplitter surface in
2-2
either a constructive or destuctive manner, depending upon the differences in optical( ,athlengths (i.e., phase relationship). This time-varying interference pattern (termed
as "interferograin") is observed by the liquid nitrogen cooled infrared detector. Thetemporal frequency associated with the generated interference pattern is a function ofthe mirror optical scanning speed and the wavelength of the incoming radiation. Thewavelength spectrum of the incident radiation can be determined by performing a Fouriertransformation of the electrical waveform generated by the detector.
The output of a 6328 A He-Ne laser source is also passed through the optical cubeproducing a separate interference pattern which is detected by an uncooled silicon (Si)photovoltaic detector. Since the laser is essentially monochromatic, the interferogramoutput of the Si detector is sinusoidal at a single frequency, which can be directly relatedto the mirror optical scaiming speed, The laser-detected interferogram provides thewavelength/frequency calibration for the target-detected interferogram and is also usedto provide an optically linearized clock signal for conversion of the analog data to a dig-ital form (which is done in real-time with a 15 bit A-D converter).
A third optical channel consisting of a broadband, "white-light" source and an un-cooled Lead Selenide (PbSe) detector provides a reference interferogram for defining theoptical center of the target interferogram produced in the main data channel. The whitelight source (an incandescent lamp) produces an interferogram with a very sharp peakwhich occurs at zero optical retardation (the point in the optical scan at which the path-length traversed by the two split beams is equal), The location of the zero retardationpoint is necessary for certain data reduction processes which include the coherent addi-tion or subtraction of target-generated interferograms.
Specific characteristics of the interferometers, used in the background measurementsperformed to date, are presented in Table 2-1.
2.2 NEAR-UV PRISM SPECTROMETER
UV spectral measurements were performed through the use of an ITT model SF 103-R8 prism-type spectrometer as pictured in Figure 2-2. This instrument consists of twobasic parts. These are the control console and the spectrometer proper. The controlconsole contains the function controls, amplifiers, gain and filter switches, and outputconnector. The spectrometer contains the collecting optics, the monochromator, thedetector, and the mechanical components for scanning.
An optical schematic of the spectrometer is presented in Figure 2-5. Radiation iscollected by the cassegrain foreoptics which focuses the optical beam on the entrance slit.A mechanical chopper is situated between the entrance slit and the second mirror, whichdirects the beam toward the slit, to provide a carrier frequency for the resultant signalfrom the detector. From the entrance slit the beam diverges, striking a third mirrorwhich directs it to a fixed collimating reflector. The reflected, collimated radiation thenpasses through the LiF prism which disperses it. After striking a movable littrow mirror,situated in such a manner as to only properly reflect radiation to the exit slit which iscentered about a specific wavelength, the beam is reflected back through the prism to thecollimator. At this point, the collimator reverses its previous function and causes theradiation to converge on the detector after being reflected for a seventh time and passingthrough the exit slit to the detector.

,1 I The spectrometer scans continually in a triangular waveform, alternately scanningfrom short to long wavelength, then from long to short wavelength, The scan is linear
i, with respect to wavelength in both directions and the time rate of scan may be selectedfor any speed from 0. 012 scans per second to 5 scans per second. Since wavelengthselection within the instrument is determined solely by the position of the mirror behindthe prism, a metal arm mechanically links the moving mirror to the wavelength indicatorand photo diode which creates a pulse at the short wavelength end of each scan. When the dinstrument is scanning from short to long wavelengths a second pulse is electronically in-duced into the output, providing a rapid means of determining the scan direction. The de-tector output and wavelength marker pulses are converted to a digital form in real-time(15-bit A-D converter plus level detector).I The entrance and exit slits are controlled by the same dial on the instrument. Thisdial is graduated in 0. 01 mm increments and permits manual opening or closing of theslits to a maximum of 2 mm slit width. The entrance slit has a Hartmann diaphram in
1 a stepped design to permit narrowing of the slit height.Specific characteristics of the UV-spectrometer, as used in gathering the background
data presented herein, are presented in Table 2-2.

PHASE-I IR MEASUREMENT DATA (1.5 - 5.4 • )
During the Phase I measurement effort, an attempt was made to obtain a varietyof backgrounds with heavy concentration on those which were considered most severeto an infrared system. Spectral plots from this initial phase of the program arepresented in figures 3-1 through 3-15 (Background Scenes number 1 through 15). TheBackground Scenes number 1 through 15, with letters "A" and "B" are absolutespectral signatures of the areas indicated on the infrared photographs. These plotsare referenced to essentially zero temperature (770K liquid nitrogen reference). TheBackground Scenes number 1 through 15, with letters "C" and "D" are contrast plotsobtained by computer subtraction and are plotted in both linear and logarithmic formats.All contrast pairs were confined to a spatial separation of less than 1 degree andrecorded within a 5 minute period of time. Up to 90 seconds of data (90 interferograms)
were averaged to obtain some of the data presented in this section.All of the spectra presented were measured during the daylight hours and exhibit
various amounts of solar reflected energy in the 1. 5 to approximately 3 micron region.Beyond 3 microns, the self-emission of the background areas predominates in most
cases. The H20 absorption bands are strongly evident at 1. 8 and 2. 7 microns and toa lesser extent in the 5 micron region where they appear as emission bands in most
"plots. Also the 4.3 CO 2 band appears as both absorption or emission, depending onthe particular background conditions.
Beyond 3 microns, the spectral curves show little variation from one to another, Iwhereas the radiation in the shorter wavelengths showy considerable differences within
the atmospheric window regions. These differences are reflected directly in thecontrast plots which generally indicate a minimum beyond 4 microns.
"The contrast plots can be used to calculate a system response to these backgrounds,. given the system sensitivity and instantaneous field of view. Conversely, if the system
is yet to be designed and the spectral characteristics of the target are known, the"contrast data may be used to optimize the spectral region of operation. The optimiza-tion is performed by plotting a spectral ratio of apparent target irradiance to back-ground contrast irradiance. For a maximization of target to background energy, thespectral region of operation should be confined to the narrow region (or regions)centered about the peak of the plot. The detection bandwidth of the system will be
predicated on the system sensitivity, r equired detection range and background false
alarm rate. The spectral signature used for the target should contain atmosphericabsorption as expected under typical system operation.
Depending on the system application, certain types of backgrounds may be
excluded from consideration. Certain classes of the contrast plots presented indicatetrends or characteristics which may be used to advantage in a system design.

Section 4SPIASE-II III MEASUREMENT DATA (2.0- 5. 4 1)
The Phase II infrared spectra taken from 25 natural background sites are pre-sented in the following pages, (Figures 4-1 through 4-25). The near-IR photographsillustrate the spatial relationship which existed between the various pl ts while thethermal image data provides a first order feel for the appearance that these back-grounds present when integrated over the 2 to 5-micron region. Included with thedata arc the angular coordinates to the sites as referenced to the measurement loca-tion and corresponding sun angle positions. The elevation, temperature and relativehumidity data are related to the measurement location. The 25 background sites aregrouped and presented in the following sequence: clouds, sky, snow, terrain, andwater. The data presented in this section typically represent the coherent average
Sof interferograms recorded over a 10 second time period.Particular care was taken with respect to absolute calibration of the spectrometer
at each measurement site so that spectral curves can be cross-correlated, Thecalibration consisted of using a 600'C blackbody to establish the response function ofthe interferometer, a full-field 300'K blackbody for direct radiance calibration, and
a liquid-nitrogen (77'K) calibration which is used as the reference for absoluteradiance.
The actual spectra of the particular background areas are plotted from 2. 0 to5. 4 microns. The ordinate values for each plot arc automatically selected by thecomputer data reduction program and care must be exercised to observe these or-dinate scales when comparing data. The contrast or difference spectra arc plottedfrom 2. 6 to 5. 4 microns. excluding the high solar radiance values normally expe-rienced in the 2. 0 to 2. 6 micron region. The difference plots can be positive ornegative with respect to zero depending 'on the order in which they were subtracted.
Sites number 25,8 and 6 (Figures 4-25, 4-8, and 4-6) have been selected for abrief discussion of the infrared spectral characteristics which are general to mostof the backgrounds presented in this report. The primary interest in site 25 is thespectral signature of the sunlit lake whichI is shown in plot number 1. The spectrais the combined result of strong specular solar reflection, (which predominates inthe region from 2. 0 to about 4 microns) and the self-emission of the warm water(which produces the rise in radiance observed beyond 4 microns). Super-imposedover these two essentially graybody curves is the effect of atmospheric absorption inthe shorter wavelengths and atmospheric emission at the longer wavelength end.
A second scan was made approximately one degree to the right of the lake,producing the spectral signature shown as plot number 2. There is a notable decreaseof radiance at the short wavelength end of the second plot which has caused a factor-of-four reduction in the ordinate scale. At the longer wavelengths, both curvesapproximate a 3000K characteristic vAth superimposed effects of the interveningatmosphere.
g 4-1
Of particular importance to a contrast type seeker system is the spectral dif-ferenec between the two plots discussed above. This difference is included in site 25and labeled plot 1 - plot 2. Because of the large difference which typically exists atthe shorter wavelengths from 2 to 2. 6 microns, the difference plots were initiated at2. 6 microns to preclude a high ordinate scale. The difference plot is predominatedby the solar reflection from the lake iii the 3 to 4 micron region. Beyond 4 micronsthe radiance difference drops significantly due to the similarity in the radiating tem-perature of the two areas and the similarity in the atmospheric effects over theapproximately equivalent pathlengths. The rather wide CO 2 absorption band existingfrom 4. 1 to about 4. 6 microns is also indicative of the long pathlength to the lake(approximately 25 miles).
Site nmnber 8 (Figure 4-8) consists of spectral plots from four adjacent back-ground areas and the six difference plots resulting from the subtracted pairs. Thefirst two plots are of blue sky taken above Mt. Pinion. These two plots indicateradiance from scattered solar radiation in the 2.0 to 2.8-micron region and then thepresence of self-emission and atmospheric effects beyond 2. 8 microns to the end ofthe plot at 5. 4 microns. The rather broad "bump" existing at 4. 5 microns is due tothe warmer atmospheric CO 2 close to the measurement site. The structure fromabout 5 microns on is predominately H2 0 emission of .he atmosphere. The differenceplots for these two areas (plot number 1 - plot numbe': 2) indicates an almost neg-ligible contrast between the two. This difference plot is essentially the result ofinstrwument noise in the shorter wavelengths and the slight differences in indicatedtemperatures at the longer wavelengths. (A temperature change of 10 C for a 3001Kblackbody will produce a difference of about 4 microwatts per square centimeter-steradian - micron at 4 microns). Since the above plot shows a difference of lessthan 2 microwatts per square centimeter - steradian - micron at 4 microns, thedifference is probably due to the slight change in effective temperature (approximately0. 5° C) over the different measurement paths or due to a temperature change whichcould have taken place during the two minute interval in which the two measurementstook place.
Plots number 3 and 4 show spectra of sunlit snow and bare ground. The bareground was warmer than the snow as evidenced by the thermal image and the higherradiance of plot number 4 in the 4.5 to 5.4-micron region (note the ordinate scalechange). It is also interesting to note that the atmospheric structure in this sameregion of plot number 4 in phase reversed 180 degrees from that of the other threeplots, indicating that the C02 and H20 bands are absorbing the emitted radiation fromthe warmer ground. This phase reversal, which can best be examined by physicallyover-laying the two spectra, provides a good indication of the nature of the backgroundradiance when comparing various sites.
The difference spectra involving plot number 4 appear similar to one another dueto the relatively large radiance level of this particular plot which dominates the sub-traction. The difference levels for these plots are negative due to the sign conventionused in the subtraction. In addition, the C02 absorption band at 4. 5 microns is notas wide as was noted for the difference plot involving the sunlit lake of site 25(Figure 4-25). This is the result of the closer proximity of site 8.
Site number 6 (Figure 4-6) shows an interesting difference in the spectral ra-
diance of blue sky which was taken at two different elevation angles. The spectral
4-2..c . ' " "
1 radiance at 3 degree elevation shows a large amount of scattered sunlight in the2 to 2. 5-micron region and the effects of transversing a long horizontal pathlength ofessentially 300°K atmosphere. The spectral signature made at the higher 44 degreeelevation angle is dominated by atmospheric molecular emission of warm CO 2 and1120. The scattered solar radiation and atmospheric graybody continuum is to sucha low level that H20 molecular line emission can be seen in the 3.2 to 3.5-micronregion. The predominate H20 emission is at the longer wavelength end of the spectrumbetween 4.7 to 5. 4 microns, The radiance level of the dense CO 2 at 4. 4 microns is
I fairly independent of elevation angle.An anomaly that is present in most of the IR background spectral data is the small
double dip of CO 2 absorption centered at 4. 25 microns. The spectral plots presentedare referenced to essentially absolute zero by comparing each background to a fullfield blackbody at the temperature of liquid nitrogen. In physically performing theliquid nitrogen measurement, the small amount of residual CO 2 that is within the
1 instrument produces a small amount of absorption at 4.25 microns that is carriedthrough to the reduced plots. This absorption does not appear in the difference plots,however, since it is automatically eliminated during the subtraction process.

Section 5I PHASE-II UV MEASUREMENT DATA (0.30 - 0.44 A)
Figures 5-1 through 5-24 show the ultraviolet spectra of various natural back-grounds. Again, the near-IR photographs illustrate the spatial relationships be-tween the data plots. The UV photographs were taken with a boresighted camera toillustrate the intcgTated image which exists in the 350 to 400 millimicron region. Thevarious sites include and are arranged in the following approximate sequence; clouds,
£ sky, snow, terrain and water.
The spectrometer was calibrated at each measurement location with collimated,full-field xenon and mercury vapor sources to establish the radiance and wavelengthscales. The xenon source has also been referenced to an NBS traceable ribbonfilament tungsten lamp to establish absolute radiance levels.
The spectral data were taken over the range of 200 to 440 millimicrons; however,the shorter wavelength data was excluded from the final plots since the radiance levelsin the region were extremely low due to absorption by atmospheric ozone. The or-dinate scale values are selected by the computer program to fit the data between themaximum and minimum values. The UV data presented in this section represent asingle spectral scan which required about 20 seconds to cover the 300 to 440 millimi-
cron region.The UV spectral plots (see Figure 5-1 for example) generally show characteristics
of a rapid rise in radiance level over the wavelength region of 300 to 330 millimicronsfollowed by variations about a gradually increasing.average radiance value to the limitsI of the plot of 440 millimicrons. The actual peak in the radiance curve will generallyoccur at some wavelength beyond 440 millimicrons depending on the particular back-ground and measurement conditions.
The difference plots, again obtained by spectral subtraction, are less dramatic
than exhibited in the IR spectral region due to the lack of strong atmospheric absorp-tion bands or effects of self-emission of backgrounds in the UV region. In addition,most terrain features are very non-reflective in the UV region and any observed ra-diance is generally due to the same effects which give rise to sky radiance. Plotnumber 1 - plot number 2 of site number 1 is typical of cloud/sky backgroumds; thespectral difference produces a generally rising characteristic from 300 to 440 mil-limicrons.sFigure 5-17 shows spectra obtained from terrain (pine trees) and blue sky. There
is a striking similarity between the spectral shapes of these two plots. This spectralsimilarity is due to the spectrally flat, non-reflective nature of the terrain which alsogives rise to a reduced magnitude of the ordinate scale. The difference plot is quite"similar in spectral shape to that of the sky, and typical of most other difference plotsinvolving terrain backgrounds.
-- 5-1
' t :9
I. - -.
The differences that exist in blue sky radiance as a function of elevation angle aredemonstrated in Figure 5-12. Spectral measurements were made at three elevationA angles; 3 degrees, slightly above the horizon; at 44 degrees, in a portion of deep bluesky; and at 69 degrees elevation. The major difference between the 3 degree spectralplot and the daita taken at the higher elevation angles is a reduction in the longer wave-
* length radiance at the higher angles due to reduced Mie scattering. The radiance levelat 340 milliniicrons is reasonably constant at 0. 009 watts per square centi meter -ste radian-micron from 3 degree elevation up to at least 69 degrees (the limit of the UV instru-mnentation) for this particular site.

Section 6I PHASE Ill IR MEASUREMENT DATA (2 -1 2 . 8 1A)
This section presents the spectral radiance data from 8 natural background sitesI obtained during late 1974, These data were taken at San Clemente, California and repre-
sent the first spectral data taken using a new 2-14p interferometer. The San Clementemeasurements were performed to obtain data for typical ocean/terrain background sites.
Background spectral radiance data from each of 8 different sites are presented in", I Figures 6-1 through 6-8. Each figure contains the absolute spectral radiance (in micro-
watts per square centimeter par steradian per micron) of two portions of the backgroundfor the spectral region from 2 to 12.8 ;. These absolute radiance spectra were obtainedby referencing the measured interferometric data to a source maintained at liquid nitrogentemperature (77 0K) thereby removing instrument radiation components from the data.The data typically represent the coherent average of interferograms recorded over a 10second time period. In addition to the absolute radiance spectra, a radiance differencespectrum is presented in each figure. This spectrum was derived by taking the differenceof the two absolute spectra in the wavelength domain. To complement the spectral data,infrared photographs are provided which illustrate the relative radiation of the measure-
ment site in three spectral bands. For the near-IR band (. 75 - 90p) an infrared photo-* 1:• graph is given. Thermal images are provided to describe the spacial radiation geometryin the mid-IR (3.6 - 5 . 4 1) and in the long wavelength-IR (7.5 - 13 1) spectral regions.Additional information given includes temperature, relative humidity, line-of-sight angles,and sun angles,
The radiance spectra presented in Figures 6-1 through 6-8 display graybody con-tinuum radiation and molecular emission/absorption structure. The graybody radiationcomponents evolve from two different sources and appear in two distinct spectral regions.In the 2 to 3pspectral region the radiance spectra of certain backgrounds display a hightemperature graybody characteristic. This is due to diffuse reflection and scattering ofsunlight. In the 3 to 13 1 spectral region a definite low temperature graybody continuumcan be observed in all the absolute radiance spectra. This component provides the pro-
dominant spectral shape in this region and is due to the ambient tempcrature emission ofthe constituents of the scene,
The radiance difference spectra shown in the C portion of Figures 6-1 through 6-8Sall show a significantly larger contrast in the 8 - 13A spectral region than in the 2 - 81
band. The molecular line structure inherent in the absolute radiance spectra become muchmore pronounced in the contrast spectra. This is because the graybody continuum portionof the absolute spectra are generally quite similar both in amplitude and in spectral shape.Consequently, the major difference between the two absolute spectra is in the molecularlire structure.
