ABSTRACT:
A novel dual spectra optical pyrometer is characterized by a serial array of photodetectors. The first photodetector absorbs a spectral portion of a target optical beam incident thereto, and passes the remainder optical beam to the second photodetector. Signals from both photodetectors are provided along with signals indicative of the first detector's spectral absorption and an estimate of the equivalent black body temperature of a fireball to a signal processor which provides a compensated temperature signal therefrom.
