Bi-channel electrooptical scanning laser imaging radar transmitting system for down-looking synthetic aperture

Abstract

A bi-channel electrooptical scanning laser imaging radar transmitting system for down-looking synthetic aperture comprises a laser, a half wave plate, an aperture diaphragm, a first polarization beam splitter, a first electrooptical scanner, a first cylindrical mirror, a second polarization beam splitter, a first 1/4 wave plate, a first reflection mirror, a third polarization beam splitter, a second 1/4 wave plate, a second reflection mirror, a second electrooptical scanner, a second cylindrical mirror, a fourth polarization beam splitter, a transmitter-telescope primary mirror, a high-voltage power source and a signal generator. The bi-channel electrooptical scanning laser imaging radar transmitting system is capable of electro-optically scanning two channels of light beams and ultimately realizing parabolic equipotential line difference of two polarization orthogonal light beams at a far-field target, is used for scanning targets, simple in structure, free of mechanical scanning, small in size, light in weight, and particularly suitable for onboard or satellite-borne high-speed operating carrying platforms, and response speed for electrooptical phase modulation wave surfaces is fast and up to nanosecond level.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a laser radar, in particular to a dual-channel electro-optical scanning direct-looking synthetic aperture laser imaging radar transmitting system, which is used as an optical transmitting device in a direct-looking synthetic aperture laser imaging radar. The electro-optic scanner performs dual-line linear electro-optic scanning in the cross-track direction to generate linear term phase modulation of the cross-track to the horizontal position of the target point, and performs phase modulation in the along-track direction through the cylindrical mirror to generate the longitudinal position of the target point along the track The quadratic term phase history centered on , and the finally obtained polarization orthogonal parabolic equipotential phase difference wavefront are the key technologies for realizing radar two-dimensional plane target imaging.
