Performances of the GPS receiver are relative closely with accuracy of wind field data obtained. To prove the reliability of the GPS anemometric technique, contrast experiments with the wind profiler and Vaisala are carried out. The experimental results show that the correlativity between the wind data of GPS, wind profiler and Vaisala are perfect and profiles of wind speed and wind direction are close too. However, the mean value of wind speed measured by GPS is larger than that measured by wind profiler and Vaisala. It is important to analyze the reason for the differences and to make correction for the GPS method..

Xiu-hong CHEN, He-li WEI, Kai YU, and Yong-qing TIAN
Contrast of star to sky background is an important parameter of star sensor. It determines stellar magnitude detecting limit of the star sensor. Method for calculating the contrast of star to sky background is described.

It determines stellar magnitude detecting limit of the star sensor. Method for calculating the contrast of star to sky background is described. For a star sensor with 3°×3° field of view, 0°and 40°observing angle to detect 6.0 magnitude stars of K and M types, the contrast of star to sky background is calculated as a function of observing height,solar zenith, wave band, and stellar spectral type. Results show that the contrast increases exponentially with increasing of observing height, and the value at 40 km altitude is about one hundred times of that at 10 km altitude. The contrast also increases nearly linearly with increasing of solar zenith, and the value at solar zenith of 80°is about six times of that at solar zenith of 20°for longer wavelength. The contrast in 0.4～1.0 μm spectral range by using B+W090 filter is close to that of 0.6～0.7 μm waveband, and the contrast of the whole waveband almost doesn't vary with stellar spectral types. The results can be used for estimating stellar magnitude detecting limit of the star sensor in the atmosphere during daytime..

Based on the system,in vivo fluorescence of 10 different dilutions from the same water sample and 24 kinds of water samples from different sources was determined and the linear relationship of fluorescence intensity and chlorophylla concentration was also investigated. The results indicate that blue LED(maximum emission wavelength 442.7 nm) is the most proper excitation light source for determining in vivo fluorescence of phytoplankton,and limit of determination is 0.0278 μg/1(chlorophyll-a). Background fluorescence of DOM, especially the difference of phytoplankton species and fluorescence quantum efficiency, shows significant influence on the determination of in vivo fluorescence. Blue LED has a potential as excitation light source of phytoplankton fluorometry. In order to overcome the influence of phytoplankton species, fluorescence quantum efficient and DOM background fluorescence on in vivo fluorescence, further research should be carried out and proper adjustment methods are needed..

With the combination of TDLAS and the open-path multi-pass Herriot cell, using second harmonic detection and the auto-balanced detection with wavelength modulation respectively, the CO concentration of flame of alcohol blowtorch is measured. The result shows that, comparing with second harmonic detection, the new detection method of auto-balanced detection with wavelength modulation not only improves detectability of 16.3 times, but also eliminates impact from light-intensity fluctuation generated by laser and flame effectively, and could be applied for CO concentration monitoring in many fields including combustion control and component measurement of flame..

The typical flat non-isothermal mixed pixel composed of soil and vegetation is taken as an example, analyzing the non-isothermal effects on the radiometric temperature of the pixel, and giving a possible method to present the variation of radiometric temperature change. In order to validate the method, simulated hyper spectral thermal infrared dataset is generated. The validation results show that the method can characterize the change of flat non-isothermal mixed pixel with wavelength well and improve the inversion precision of r-emissivity of flat non-isothermal mixed pixel..

Based on Mie scattering theory and scattering phase function, it puts forward a formula to calculate the backward scattering ratio. According to Mie scattering theory, the scattering phase function characteristics of alga particles and suspended sands are analyzed, and their backward scattering ratios are obtained too. In addition, the relationship between backward scattering ratio and particle radius and lidar wavelength is discussed in detail. From the simulation results, it can be found that, in the condition of the constant lidar wavelength, the backward scattering ratio of the alga particle increases with the increase of alga particle radius, while the backward scattering ratio of the suspended sand decreases with the increase of suspended sand radius. At the same time, in the condition of the constant particle radius, the two main suspended particles' backward scattering ratios increase with the increase of the lidar wavelength..

But it can't work at the period of day and night alternating when stars can't be observed with eyes and quadrant elevation of sun is unfit for measuring, so image processing with low signal-to-noise ratio is necessary using suitable infrared filter and high-sensitive CCD while observing star in daylight. The experiment proves that little target can be detected well with frame accumulation and local enhancement method..
