Abstract
In order to determine the visible spectral region of the target, the paper made the analysis of the high-altitude balloon by the ground-based detection. By using the atmospheric transporting model (MODTRAN), the paper calculated the background noise intensity at the probe point and the brightness of the background of the target in the different time. And by using the reverse Monte-Carlo method, the paper calculated the scattering radiance of the high-altitude balloon the ground-based probe point received. After calculating the ratio of the signal to the noise, the paper made the analysis of the visibility of the target. The results show that, during the ground-based detection, with the smaller detecting angle or the greater solar zenith angle of the target, the signal to noise ratio can be higher when the target’s location and the detecting altitude are both fixed. This study is beneficial to the determination of the threshold of detection equipment and the choice of spectral bands.
