Summary: This paper confirms, through experiments, that changes in ambient temperature are the main cause of dark output noise drift. It also investigates the impact of dark output noise drift in fiber optic spectrometers on emissivity measurements. Two methods, the mean correction scheme and the linear fitting correction scheme, were proposed for characterizing and correcting the dark output noise offset in fiber optic spectrometers, with the linear fitting correction scheme being more effective. The mean correction scheme achieves a calibration relative error of less than 0.8% for silicon carbide (SIC) emissivity when the wavelength is greater than 1600 nm, while the linear fitting correction scheme achieves a calibration relative error of less than 0.62%. This work resolves the problem of dark output noise drift in prolonged measurement based on fiber optic spectrometers, improving the accuracy and reliability of emissivity and quantitative radiation measurement.

Summary: A quantum well infrared photodetector (QWIP) dark current measurement method based on focal-plane temperature is proposed, along with a method to reduce dark current noise. The response model and dark current model of the long-wave infrared QWIP detection system are established, and experiments are conducted to measure the dark current values of the QWIP at different temperatures. A dark current noise correction method is proposed and experiments are carried out to validate its effectiveness. The results show a significant reduction in temporal noise, demonstrating the potential of this method for promoting the application of QWIPs in LWIR remote sensing detection.

Summary: The dark current is a major factor affecting the performance of infrared photodetectors, restricting integration time and decreasing signal-to-noise ratio. Maintaining an extremely low temperature is a common method to suppress the dark current, but it consumes a lot of energy. This article presents a correction method that calculates and subtracts the instantaneous dark background of each pixel based on the real-time focal plane array (FPA) temperature to eliminate the influence of the dark current on image quality. Additionally, multiframe superposition is used to enhance the performance of the infrared hyperspectral imager. The noise equivalent temperature difference (NETD) in the imaging system is better than 0.3 K after merging 32 frames.

Summary: Differential pressure solid-state anemometers are ideal for mobile meteorological monitoring due to their compact size, high precision, and durability. However, they face challenges in accuracy when encountering large angle-of-attack errors. An AOA correction method based on theoretical analysis and CFD simulation has been proposed and validated in a wind tunnel, demonstrating accurate wind parameter measurements within a specific AOA range.

Summary: A study on the impact of thermocouples embedded in materials of lower thermal conductivity showed that the presence of thermocouples can distort the surrounding temperature field, leading to measurement errors. By analyzing key factors and using finite element models, it was found that thermal properties, geometry, and heating regime all affect the thermal disturbance.

Summary: This study investigated the seasonal changes in biophysical, anatomical, and optical traits of young leaves formed by sylleptic growth and mature leaves formed by proleptic growth. Leaf developmental categories were found to influence top-of-canopy reflectance and should be considered in remote sensing studies. It was also suggested that sampling both young and mature leaves is necessary for robust linear models in remote sensing research.
