Inverse infrared radiation intensity for cylindrical medium based on abel transform

This paper presents an inversion study on infrared intensity of the cylindrical symmetry optically thin materials. The derivation process of inversion model is given. Simulation test method is used to inverse the simulation experimental data of three kinds of typical distribution, Gauss type, single peak type and double peak type. The results show that this method can inverse the infrared radiation intensity at any point of the target. In addition, the influence of noise on the inversion result was studied. The results show that a good inversion result is guaranteed when the signal-to-noise ratio is below 40 which means this method is not sensitive to noise of the experimental data.
