The research of attack angle measurement of projectile with CCD vertical target system

Based on the coordinate measurement principle of the CCD vertical target system, a new method is proposed to measure the attack angle of flying projectile. It mainly analyze the coordinate measurement accuracy of the system and derive the formula for measuring the attack angle; In practical test, the attack angle measurement accuracy was proved to meet the request. The experimental results show that the method is feasible, and the CCD vertical target system not only measure the coordinates of flying projectile but also obtain the attack angle simultaneously, so that expand a wider range of applications of CCD vertical target measurement system.
