A synthetic aperture
laser imaging
radar optical processor based on band-pass filter conducts imaging process on target echoed data of a synthetic aperture
laser imaging
radar through an
optical imaging processing method. The synthetic aperture
laser imaging
radar optical processor based on the band-pass filter comprises an optical master, a collimation beam expanding unit, a synthetic aperture
laser imaging radar echoed data storage unit, a transmission-type and intensity-type
liquid crystal spatial light modulator, a first spherical lens, a slit, a second spherical lens, a
cylindrical lens, a third spherical lens and an optical screen. According to the rationale, the target echoed data received by the synthetic aperture
laser imaging radar echoed data storage unit is loaded onto the intensity-type
liquid crystal spatial light modulator and conducts modulation on incident planar optical
waves; after emergent optical
waves pass through the band-pass filter, the focusing of the range direction and the
azimuth direction can be achieved simultaneously, and an imaging result is amplified and displayed on the optical screen. By means of the synthetic aperture
laser imaging radar
optical processor based on the band-pass filter, the band-pass filter of a
synthetic aperture imaging laser radar intensity-type echoed
signal is achieved, the imaging result is easy to observe, and the synthetic aperture laser imaging radar optical processor based on the band-pass filter has an extensive application prospect in the future airborne and
satellite borne synthetic aperture laser imaging
radar systems.
