Abstract

Optical equipment is widely used to measure flight parameters in target flight performance test, but the equipment is sensitive to the sun’s rays. In order to avoid the disadvantage of sun’s rays directly shines to the optical equipment camera lens when measuring target flight parameters, the angle between observation direction and the line which connects optical equipment camera lens and the sun should be kept at a big range, The calculation method of the solar azimuth and altitude to the optical equipment at any time and at any place on the earth, the equipment observation direction model and the calculating model of angle between observation direction and the line which connects optical equipment camera lens are introduced in this article. Also, the simulation of the effect on optical equipment caused by solar position at different time, different date, different month and different target flight direction is given in this article.
