We have constructed a target-board platform to provide adaptive-optics and tracking performance characterization for the Airborne Laser Advanced Concepts Testbed program. The target board comprises 1536 discrete sensors distributed over a 1-meter by 2.5-meter array mounted to the side of a specially modified Cessna Caravan aircraft. The aircraft platform includes multiple beacon sources for adaptive- optics and tracking, a large-capacity data-recording system and a real-time telemetry ground-link for data display. In this paper we provide an overview of the target-board platform. We discuss the results of requirements analysis for target-board detector configuration, and describe the detailed design and capabilities of the various sub-systems. |
