Abstract

An unofficial modification to the U.S. Army's ACQUIRE v.0 range performance model is presented. This modification allows a two-parameter atmospheric transmission model to be invoked at the user's discretion that more accurately represents broad-band atmospheric transmission. Calibration of the two-parameter model to MODTRAN7 predictions for several standard atmospheres in different LWIR and MWIR wavebands is performed. Evaluation of differences in range prediction between Beer's Law and the two-parameter model is done.
