Abstract

A radiothermometer for surface temperature measurement is designed with an enclosed cham-ber to eliminate any uncontrolled circumferential irradiation. This paper addresses the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and the noise-equivalent temperature difference (NETD) equations in terms of system parameters.
