The invention discloses a medium-wave
infrared target
simulation system using an image space telecentric beam path and belongs to the field of
infrared target
simulation. The problem that a
light spot(ghost image) shown by cold light rays irradiated by a cold stop in an existing detection
system on a detection face covers a target objective image, and the detection precision of the detection
system is affected is solved. The target
simulation system is used for generating a simulation target with the infinite the target position and is further used for making cold light rays irradiated by thecold stop in an
infrared target
detector return by the same way the cold light rays come through a target source, an amplified
light spot is formed on the detection face of the infrared target
detector, the target objective image is imaged on the detection face with the amplified
light spot as the background, and the influences of the ghost image on the target objective image are eliminated. Thetarget source includes an interference target source and a to-be-detected target source. The forming process of the infrared simulation target includes that after the
inference target source and the to-be-detected target source are coupled through the image space telecentric beam path, beam expanding is conducted, and therefore the infrared simulation target with the infinite target position is generated. The medium-wave infrared target
simulation system is mainly used for generating the infrared simulation target.
