ABSTRACT:
Transmitter and receiver devices are included in an active optic proximity fuse for providing increased resistance to aerosols. The transmitter and receiver units operate with optical radiation and include a signal processing unit which reacts to a target located in a sensing region and reflecting optical radiation emitted from the transmitter device to the receiver device. The sensing region displays, most proximal a carrier of the proximity fuse, an inner sensing limit which is located at an inner distance from the carrier. The signal processing unit operates with preparatory signal processing and/or time measurement of reflected signals when the target is located within the sensing region, and emits an activation signal only when the target passes the inner sensing limit.
