Military Uses of Television: Pickup Tube Performance with Slow Scanning Rates
For military purposes it is often desirable to operate a TV system at nonstandard scanning rates. This paper describes a study performed for the U.S. Army Signal Engineering Laboratories, Fort Monmouth, N. J., of the operation of standard image orthicons and vidicons at reduced rates. Resolution, sensitivity and other characteristics of these tubes have been measured. Characteristics desired for tubes designed particularly for slow-scan operation are considered.
