ABSTRACT:
A simulator for simulating a sensing system includes modules operable to simulate sensors sensing a scene. The modules include: a path modeling module operable to model a path for each sensor; a radiative transfer module operable to model a transfer of radiance from the scene to each sensor; and instrument response modules operable to model the response of the sensors to the transferred radiance. A control module manages the operation of the modules.
