Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of underwater optical imaging, and in particular relates to a simulation method for reflecting polarized light of an underwater target based on the two-way reflection theory. Background technique
[0002] Underwater optical imaging technology uses blue and green lasers with strong penetrating ability to sea water instead of sound waves for communication or detection activities. The underwater imaging system model is as follows: emit photons—photon transmission—target reflection—photon transmission—receive photons. Underwater optical imaging has the advantages of intuitive target detection, high imaging resolution, and high information content. As an emerging technology, it complements acoustic imaging methods and plays an important role in underwater imaging detection.
[0003] However, due to the water medium and underwater scattering particles such as sediment, algae and other suspended particles, the siz...
