Time Delay and Integration Mode of CCD Linear Image Sensor Operation

Abstract

This paper is devoted to description, analysis and practical verification of a new method of CCD line sensor control necessary for operation in TDI mode. TDI mode of operation is used when objects observed by CCD sensor move in the direction of line sensor. The results of experiments with test patterns moving with different velocities are discussed. Conclusions and hints applicable for finding velocity of movement are also included in the paper.
