specific Embodiment approach 1

[0017] Specific implementation mode 1. Combination Figure 2 to Figure 5 Description of this embodiment, a method for measuring the modulation transfer function of a spaceborne camera, the method is implemented by the following steps:

[0018] Step 1. Before the satellite transits, lay a set of convex mirrors with the same specifications in a scene with a consistent background, and the distance between each pair is not less than six ground pixel intervals. The convex mirrors reflect sunlight to form multiple point light source targets. The ground pixel interval is known, but due to the shape of the satellite orbit, the ground pixel interval may vary within a certain range.

[0019] Step 2: From the images captured by the spaceborne camera, corresponding to each point light source, the image data of the same size is intercepted.

Abstract

A modulation transfer function measurement method for a spaceborne camera relates to the field of space optics technology, and solves the problem that existing point light source measurement modulation transfer function methods need to use parameter models to approximate and fit. First, lay multiple point light source targets before the satellite transits, and then intercept the corresponding point light source image in the captured image. After removing the background brightness value, according to the imaging mathematical model, use the regularization solution method to directly solve the two-dimensional point spread function, and finally Calculate the modulation transfer function from the point spread function. The calculation method of the invention is simple to implement, and the data processing process is simple and accurate, which is of great significance to the evaluation of the imaging quality of the spaceborne camera and has wide application prospects.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of space optics, in particular to a method for calculating a point spread function and a modulation transfer function of a spaceborne camera. Background technique [0002] The modulation transfer function of the spaceborne camera is an important indicator for evaluating the quality of the imaging system, which can reflect the clarity of the image to a large extent, so the spaceborne camera has an index requirement for the modulation transfer function, especially the modulation transfer function in Nyquist The value at the frequency. Taking the camera imaging system as a linear shift-invariant system, the point spread function describes the response of the system to the excitation of the point light source, which can characterize the system characteristics. As the normalized modulus of the Fourier transform of the point spread function, the modulation transfer function describes the response of the system to...
