Abstract

The invention provides a laser corner reflector aperture optimization method for satellite-borne laser altimeter on-orbit calibration, which is characterized by comprising the following steps: firstly, obtaining a satellite speed difference angle by utilizing satellite orbit height and satellite flight speed; setting a search range of the CCR aperture based on the satellite speed difference angleand the emitted laser wavelength; calculating amplitudes, time gravity centers and root-mean-square pulse widths of the CCR reflection pulse echo and the ground reflection pulse echo according to initial parameters during calibration of the satellite-borne laser altimeter; calculating the Bhattacharyya distance between the ground reflection pulse echo and the CCR reflection pulse echo; and finally, according to the detection range of a receiving system and the threshold condition of the Bhattacharyya distance, optimizing and searching to obtain the optimal aperture of the CCR. The method not only can effectively prevent the CCR reflection pulse echo from missing detection or saturation, but also can ensure that the CCR reflection pulse echo and the ground reflection pulse echo are not aliasing, so that the method can be suitable for distance calibration of all pulse-type satellite-borne laser altimeters.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of laser radar calibration, and in particular relates to a method for optimizing the aperture of a laser corner reflector used for on-orbit calibration of a spaceborne laser altimeter, and is suitable for calibration of the geometric distance of a spaceborne laser altimeter. Background technique [0002] The pulsed spaceborne laser altimeter is a new type of earth observation equipment. The laser pulses emitted by it are collected by the receiving system and converted into pulse echoes after being transmitted by the atmosphere and scattered or reflected by ground targets. By measuring the time interval between transmitting the pulse signal and receiving the pulse echo signal, the distance value between the satellite and the ground target can be calculated. Affected by factors such as the timing accuracy of the spaceborne laser altimeter timing system, the correction accuracy of atmospheric delay, the broadening of the...
