Wavelength-dependent fuzzy models for IR attenuation in fog

Abstract

We propose a fuzzy logic-based wavelength-dependent model of IR attenuation in fog to unify the double-exponential family of models proposed by Nadeem et al. into a single model that can be uniformly applied to determine attenuation for various wavelengths and visibility conditions. The fuzzy logic model is compared with a model based on a polynomial interpolator.
