Coaxial four-mirror ultra-low distortion optical system

Abstract

The invention relates to a coaxial four-reflector ultra-low distortion optical system, which comprises a primary mirror, a secondary mirror, a third mirror, a fourth mirror, a plane mirror and a receiving image plane, wherein optical axes of the primary mirror, the secondary mirror, the third mirror, the fourth mirror and the plane mirror are in a same straight line; the plane mirror is located between the third mirror and the fourth mirror; the primary mirror and the secondary mirror constitute a classical R-C system and form a primary real image, which continues imaging when passing through the third mirror and the fourth mirror and deflects to the receiving image plane through the plane mirror; the primary mirror, the secondary mirror and the third mirror constitute a coaxial TMA system and assume most of focal power; the fourth mirror assumes smaller part of focal power, accounting for 10-20% of the total focal power, in the imaging of the optical system; and an aperture diaphragm of the optical system is located on the primary mirror and the fourth mirror is placed at an exit pupil of the system. The optical system of the invention can be used to realize high image quality, low distortion and high stability and greatly reduce the processing difficulty of a large-aperture primary mirror and is suitable for high-precision satellite-borne stereo mapping cameras.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of aerospace optical remote sensors, and relates to an ultra-low distortion high-precision three-dimensional surveying and mapping imaging optical system suitable for satellite-borne space to the ground, in particular to a coaxial four-mirror ultra-low distortion optical system. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of space optical remote sensing technology, the requirements for the optical system of surveying and mapping cameras are becoming increasingly stringent. [0003] The main task of surveying and mapping satellites is to carry imaging sensors that meet the requirements of stereo photography to perform stereo photography on the earth's surface, obtain multi-dimensional image data of ground objects, use surveying and mapping processing technology to process image data, and accurately measure landforms, shape, size, attributes and Spatial position information, however, the dist...

Problems solved by technology

Among them, the processing of the mirror of the off-axis reflective system is extremely difficult, and traditional methods cannot be used for mirror processing, testing, and adjustment. It is difficult to control the tangential meridional distortion of the optical design, the system engineering is difficult, and the temperature control accuracy is difficult to guarantee. Optics especially unsuitable for agile stereo mapping cameras

Although the coaxial reflective three-mirror astigmatism elimination system has good system engineering and is easy to achieve high-precision temperature control, it cannot achieve a large field of view and the system distortion is difficult to eliminate

The optical system distortion of the three-dimensional surveying and mapping cameras that have been successfully operated in orbit and adopt the coaxial reflective three-mirror astigmatism elimination structure is greater than one percent. Difficult to meet the development needs of future surveying and mapping cameras
