Abstract
Weak target inspecting and recovering are very important in IR detecting systems. In this paper, triple correlation peak inspecting techniques (TCPIT) are adopted for the signal processing of IR systems in detecting sub-pixel or point targets. Investigations show that the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) improvement of approximate 23dB can be obtained with the input peak SNR of 0.84 and the input power SNR of -0.93dB. The triple correlation overlapping sampling technique (TCOST) is advanced for restoring signal waveforms of IR detection systems. Investigations show that signal waveforms can effectively be restored in the low signal-to-noise ratio circumstances using this approach.
