Measurement of In-Flight Aircraft Emissions

Aircraft engine emission and their chemical and physical evolution can be measured in flight using high resolution infrared spectroscopy. The Airborne Emission Spectrometer (AES), designed for remote measure- ments of atmosphere emissions from an airborne platform, is an ideal tool for the evaluation of aircraft emissions and their evolution. Capabilities of AES will be discussed. Ground data will be given.

Optical data processing for aerospace applications

Optical data processing has a significant potential in future aerospace systems. In this paper, potential system applications are identified. One of the more important applications is the determination of errors of large antennas or reflector surfaces and the active control or compensation of the surface. Technological challenges to the application of optical data processing technology to aerospace systems are identified, and current NASA research efforts are discussed.
