Abstract

Since sky background luminance is a critical parameter of atmospheric optics, it is very important for space target detection and identification. In order to acquire sky background luminance characteristic and evaluate the detecting and tracking capability of electro-optical systems for space target. Sky background luminance was measured with sky background measurement equipment in somewhere in Xinjiang. The contour distribution of all-sky background luminance in different type weather was given. Experimental data measured in fact was analyzed. The distribution characteristic of sky background was acquired， That provided important basis for researching sky background luminance, arraying electro-optical system and application of related field.
