The invention relates to the measuring engineering and is intended for measurement of parameters television (thermal imaging cameras. The well-known technique to determine the field of view of the TV camera (Vlado our Damjanovski CCTV "the Bible surveillance." Digital and network technologies, ed. - 2nd. Translation from English. M OOO "ay-es-es of the Press". 2006 C.-79), according to which a rectangular test-object format 4:3 to be entered into a raster television cameras (receiver radiation) and formula £=2arctg (W/2d) defined angle azimuth, where W is the width of the test object, d is the distance from the television camera to the test object. To determine the magnitude of the field of view in elevation -? instead of W to use the h - the height of the test object. The main disadvantage of this method is the necessity of giving the test-object in raster television camera, and that can only be done on the target distance, on which the angular field of view is conditional characteristic. This is because the rays coming from the individual point of the field of view in the centre of the lens of a television camera (main rays points), are from the optical axis of a different angle than the rays coming from the same point in the peripheral point of the pupil. When the plane items from infinity, the question of angular field of view is certain, because the main rays are parallel to other rays from the same point of the field of view, going to any point of the pupil, and the angle between the ray and the optical axis remains constant whatever the position of the center of the pupil relative to the plane of subjects. The magnitude of the field of view is determined by the size of the field diaphragm - D, located at the rear focal plane of the system, to the focal length f of this system (IV Sakin. Engineering optics". Leningrad mechanical engineering Leningrad branch 1976, P.84-85). Closest to the proposed technical solution is the installation for measurement of visual field telescopic systems (Russia, copyright certificate №1654708 A1, IPC G01M 11/00, published 07.06.1991 year), which contains a light source, the condenser and the collimator, consisting of a lens, in focal plane which is an opaque screen with narrow vertical slot (test object)moving perpendicular to the optical axis of the system by electric motor. For controlled telescopic system is the measuring unit, consisting of a lens, the position-sensitive sensor, processing and indication unit and tsifropechatayuschee device. The disadvantages of this device is the lack of visual control provisions cracks within the boundaries of the field of view, the limited functionality such as measurement of visual field in elevation in the case of rectangular aperture in telescopic system, the inability to determine the field of view of television cameras. The challenge for the proposed technical solution is the improved performance of the installation. The technical result - increase of reliability of measurement, increasing the information content and accuracy of control, and the ability to control parameters of test-objects in the world with horizontal and vertical lines. This is achieved by installation for measurement of angular field of view and control of the step value lines worlds test object containing the collimator with the test object in the focal plane, controlled article containing the lens, and the measuring unit, including the position-sensitive receiver of radiation, in contrast to the known, the test object is made in the form of the cross, and rigidly mounted in the focal plane of the collimator, controlled product made for television (thermal)radiation detector, which is located in the focal plane of the lens, between the collimator and the controlled product flat mirror mounted with the possibility of rotation around the vertical axis, the yield of the collimator through flat mirror is connected to the input of the controlled product, but with the lens, and in the measuring unit entered remote synchronization and formation pulse illumination of the line and two border pulses, dual beam oscilloscope, video monitor, and the output of the test object is connected to the input of the first channel dual beam oscilloscope and with the input of the remote synchronization and formation of the pulse illumination of the line and two edge of the pulse, the first output of the remote synchronization and formation of the pulse illumination of the line and two border impulses connected to the input video monitor, and the second output of the console is connected to the input of the second channel dual beam oscilloscope. The invention is illustrated by drawings, where figure 1 shows a block diagram of installation for measurement of the visual field. Figure 2 shows the test-object, as figure 3 shows the test object with vertical and horizontal lines. Device for measuring angular field of view and control of the step value lines worlds test object (figure 1) contains the collimator 1, in the focal plane of which is rigidly fixed to the test object (figure 2), flat mirror 2, controlled article 3 in view of television cameras, containing the lens to the focal plane of which is placed the receiver of radiation television (thermal imaging) type (Fig. not shown), two-beam oscilloscope 4, remote synchronization and formation of the pulse illumination line and boundary pulses (PCIPI) 5, monitor 6, the yield of the collimator 1 through flat mirror 2 is connected to the input of the tested part 3, but with the lens, and the output of the controlled products 3 thermal imaging (televizionnogo) type is connected to the input PCIPI 5 and with the input of the first channel dual beam oscilloscope 4, the first PCIPI 5 is connected to the input video monitor 6, the second output PCIPI 5 - input of the second channel dual beam oscilloscope 4. Depending on the type of radiation receiver (TV or thermal) and is determined by the type of the collimator. Introduction PCIPI 5 block diagram of installation allows to form two boundary of impulse and momentum of the illumination of rows selected by the operator on the screen of the video monitor 6 or waveform that is necessary to control the desired option. These impulses are entered in the video output of the receiver of radiation television (thermal imaging) type and pulse illumination of the strings fed to the input of the second channel dual beam oscilloscope 4, triggering it. This uniquely determine the membership of the signal oscillogram of the first channel dual beam oscilloscope 4 to the video of the selected row on the screen of the video monitor 6 requires that the video of the selected row and momentum of the illumination of this line on the waveforms of two channels douchegel oscilloscope 4 were one under another. The value of the vision field of the radiation receiver TV (thermal imaging) camera is determined by the angle of turn of flat mirrors 2 around its vertical axis. Figure 2 shows the test object in the form of a cross in 4:3 format with the point About at the point of intersection of lines that is used to determine the magnitude of the field of view of radiation receiver TV (thermal imaging cameras. Figure 3 shows the test object with vertical and horizontal lines, often used to determine the resolution of photodetectors. Calculated such test objects with account of the focal length and field of view controlled television (thermal imaging) camera and the focal length of the collimator. Video on the first output of the remote synchronization and formation of the pulse illumination of the line and two border impulses 5 consists of a television signal generated by the radiation receiver TV (thermal imaging) type and pulse illumination line and boundary pulses. The position of the boundary of pulses relative to the beginning and end of each line of the frame (frame) is changed using the control knobs located on the top panel 5. This pane contains radio buttons for selecting non illuminated line. The proposed installation allows with a high accuracy to measure visual field tested part 3 TV (thermal imaging) type, which is defined by the scale of turning flat mirror 2 around its vertical axis. And lets in the process of testing to check settings on (step vertical and horizontal lines worlds in the corner least) used test object (figure 3) and to obtain reliable values of the resolution of the test radiation detector television (thermal imaging) type, despite the fact that the parameters used to test the test-object were unknown or installation for measurement of the resolution of the radiation receivers TV type was not provided conjugation plane of the test facility, located in the focal plane of the collimator, with the plane of the photosensitive element (matrix) radiation detector television (thermal imaging) type. To illustrate the operation of this installation the following is the method of definition of the field of view of the monitored articles 3, made in the form of television (thermal imaging) cameras, as well as the method pitch control the world in the image of test-objects (figure 3) with vertical and horizontal lines, designed for television (thermal imaging cameras with different focal lengths, and if not provided with the mate plane of the location of the test object with the plane of the location of a photosensitive element (matrix) radiation detector television (thermal imaging) type. Measurement of visual field tested part 3 in azimuth is as follows. On the collimator 1 set the value of the temperature difference (light), providing a clear observation of video impulse points On the waveform allocated line, passing through this point. Collect dimension diagram (figure 1). Flat mirror 2 and controlled item 3 with the radiation receiver is positioned so that the plane of the location of a photosensitive matrix receiver of radiation and the plane of the arrangement of the test object (figure 2) in the focal plane of the collimator 1 were associated. During this operation, the starting angle flat mirrors 2 should stand on zero level, which is located in the middle of the scale of turning flat mirror 2. On the screen of the video monitor 6 get the image of the test object (figure 2), establish the arrow turning flat mirror 2 at zero scale divisions, then turn the whole structure of flat mirrors 2 get the image of a point On the test-object (figure 2) in the Central part of the screen of the video monitor 6, highlight the line passing through point On, and turning your body flat mirrors 2 set on the oscillogram of the video impulse point About in the middle of the selected row, with arrow turning flat mirror 2 must be at elevation zero. Then turn the flat mirrors 2 around the vertical axis shift the video points On the waveform of the selected row to the left to fit it with the beginning of the active part of the selected row and mark on a scale of turning flat mirror 2 degrees £ l . Likewise determine the angle flat mirrors 2 £ p , need to match the video impulse point About from the zero-scale value turning flat mirror 2 to coincide with the end of the active part of the selected row. Angle of radiation receiver azimuth will is $ = (£l the " + " p )·2. To measure the visual field of radiation detector test object 3 in elevation β have controlled article 3 rotate 90 degrees counter clockwise position in the measurement of the angle azimuth and secure controlled article 3 on the bracket into position. To install the arrow scale turning flat mirror 2 to zero and turn the whole structure of flat mirrors 2 to achieve placing the image point On in the Central part of the screen of the video monitor 6, move the highlight bar located at the very beginning of the video monitor screen 6 and turning flat mirror 2 around its axis to adjust the image point On to the selected line. On the oscillogram of the selected row should see a video of the point O. Reducing the number of the selected row and changing the duration of the scan dual beam oscilloscope 4, get on the oscillogram of the signal front pulse quenching fields, followed by the initial lines. Continue turning flat mirror 2 in the same direction as long as the video's point About not disappear with the oscilloscope of the selected row. The angle of rotation of flat mirrors 2, which was last seen video of a point On, to take over the top border of an angle on the angle of elevation β century For determination of the lower boundary of the field of view of the tested part 3 with a radiation detector in elevation β n is necessary, as in the case of determination β in , set the arrow on the scale of turning flat mirror 2 to zero, to control the placement of the image point On in the Central part of the screen of the video monitor 6, select row, held at the end of the video monitor screen 6 and turning flat mirror 2 around its axis to adjust the image point On dedicated line, while on the oscillogram of the selected row should see a video of the point O. Increasing the number of the selected row and changing the duration of the scan dual beam oscilloscope 4, get on the oscillogram of the signal back extinguishing pulse of the same, as in the case when determining β in , fields and before him last rows of the same fields. Continue turning flat mirror 2 in the same direction as long as the video's point About not disappear on the oscillogram of the selected row. The angle of rotation of flat mirrors 2, which was last seen the video impulse point On, to take over the lower angle on the angle of elevation β N. The angle of the field of view of radiation receiver in elevation will be equal & beta=(? +β n )·2. This setting allows you to define a value of reduction of the field of vision TV (thermal imaging) systems for monitoring the situation on the screen of the video monitor in comparison with the field of view of radiation receiver of these systems. For this purpose it is necessary to PCIPI 5 enable the driver edge of pulses and using variable resistors on the top panel PCIPI 5 to set the boundary line on the left and right edges of the screen of the video monitor 6. In measuring field of view of radiation detector test object 3 azimuth angle at the image point On the test-object (figure 2) left side of the screen of the video monitor 6 to mention the angles of the £ e on a scale of turning flat mirror 2, do the same thing when reaching the image point On the right edge of the screen of the video monitor to mark on a scale of rotation of the mirror angle £ EP. The angle of the field of view in azimuth television (thermal imaging) system is $ e =(£ e the " + " EP )·2. At the very beginning of establishing the value of the vision field of the radiation receiver in elevation β in , when it highlighted the extreme top line on the screen of the video monitor 6, turning flat mirror 2 around its axis to the left until then, until the image points Of overlap with the top line on the screen of the video monitor 6, mark angle beta of EV scale turning flat mirror 2. At the very beginning of establishing the value of the vision field of radiation detector test object 3 in elevation β n when it is already highlighted at the bottom line on the screen of the video monitor 6, turning flat mirror 2 around its axis right up until the image point On will be aligned with the bottom line on the screen of the video monitor to mention the angles of the β EN scale turning flat mirror 2. The value of the vision field imaging (television) system in elevation equal β e =(? EV +β EN )·2. The decreasing value of the vision field of television (thermal imaging) system in comparison with the field of view of its detectors of radiation angle azimuth is Δ£= " - these£ uh , and in elevation Δβ=β -? e . The control parameters of the test object (figure 3)that is used to determine the resolution of the tested part 3, is made in his image as follows. First, with high precision determines the magnitude of the field of view of radiation receiver kontroliruemoi television (thermal imaging) camera, and the angular size of the visual field attributable to the group vertical or horizontal lines image worlds test object (figure 3), which is determined by the resolution of the radiation receiver on the azimuth angle (angle). The angular size of a group is a vertical lines Δ£ GW on the image worlds is determined by the formula Δ £ GW = £ x t GW t azwhere " - these are the angle of the receiver of radiation imaging (television) system in azimuth; t az - the duration of the active part of the line; t HS - duration group vertical lines worlds test object, which is measured on the oscilloscope screen 4 in the selection mode of the line. The angular size of a single period (step) image vertical lines for the group the test object is equal Δ£ GWT /n=Δ., where n is the number of periods in the group's vertical lines worlds test object. Angular value Δβ - group of the horizontal lines of the test object is determined by the formula Δ β g . g . = β x t g to T and to , where?- angle of radiation receiver TV (thermal imaging) camera in elevation; T AK - duration of the active part of the frame (frame); t GK =t z (N n N - the length along the frame of the group of horizontal lines worlds test object that is used to determine the resolution of the radiation receiver TV (thermal imaging) cameras along the frame; t z - period horizontal receiver radiation; N, n ,N - number of rows that match, respectively, with upper and lower edges of the selected group of lines worlds test object. To determine N n it is necessary to select the line that ends with a selected group of horizontal lines, to clarify the waveform position the highlighted lines in the bottom of the selected group of horizontal lines of the test object (the last line of the video signal at the receiver output radiation, which has the video signal from the horizontal line worlds, should be on the location of the synchronous pulse generator line on the oscillogram of the second channel dual beam oscilloscope 4) and notice to PCIPI 5 room this line N n . To determine N it is necessary to highlight the line that starts the selected group of horizontal lines of the test object, the waveform to clarify the position of the selected row from the front edge of the selected the group of horizontal lines of the test object (the first line from the video output of the receiver of radiation, which has the video signal from the selected group of horizontal lines should be on the location of the synchronous pulse generator line on the oscillogram of the second channel dual beam oscilloscope 4) and notice to PCIPI 5 room this line N . The angular size of a single period (step) horizontal lines used groups of test-objects are equal Δ SHG. =Δβ, /n, where n is the number of periods in the group of horizontal lines worlds test object. Thus, the obtained effect in terms of reliability and accuracy of measurements due to the possibility to compare observed on the screen of the video monitor image of the test object and its elements with the relevant parts of the video test object, using the capabilities of a two-beam oscilloscope (ranges of change of duration and amplification), increase the accuracy of measurements. The proposed installation allows to measure in two directions value of the vision field separately as detectors of radiation television (thermal imaging) type and usage-based TV system video monitor. With the help of the proposed device allows you to control and to determine the magnitude of the angular step of the bands ruled the world of test-objects, if the value of this option is unknown or in the installation for measurement of the resolution of the detectors of the TV type is not provided with a link to the plane of the test facility, located in the focal plane of the collimator, with the plane of the photosensitive element (matrix) radiation detector TV type.
