The principle the infrared thermal wave testing technology under linear frequency modulation was presented. The effects of different light source power and Chirp modulation frequency on signal-to-noise ratio were compared and analyzed. The results show that, defects can be more easily detected with the bigger power of light source, and the signal-to-noise ratio can be increased by using lower initial and termination frequencies.
