Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of shipborne multi-electro-optical cooperative detection technology, specifically relating to a shipborne distributed multi-electro-optical cooperative detection system and detection method. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, with the rapid development of optoelectronic technology, optoelectronic detection systems, with their unique advantages such as intuitive imaging, strong detail resolution, and immunity to electromagnetic interference, have been increasingly widely used on shipboard platforms. Optoelectronic search equipment is generally equipped with infrared sensors for panoramic scanning, capable of acquiring two-dimensional information of multiple targets within a 360° wide area. Optoelectronic tracking equipment is typically equipped with infrared, television, and laser sensors. Infrared and television sensors can acquire two-dimensional angular information of the target, while laser ranging obtains the target distance value. However, each time, only the azimuth, elevation, and distance three-dimensional information of a single target can be output.
[0003] To reduce blind spots, on shipboard platforms, photoelectric detection equipment (photoelectric search devices, photoelectric tracking devices) is typically distributed and installed in multiple locations, such as the bow and stern. Currently, most photoelectric detection devices use individual information processing, display, and control methods. These distributed devices lack any communication with each other. When coordinated target detection is required, manual operation is necessary, requiring control of the corresponding devices from their respective control panels to achieve coordinated detection of the same target. This method of controlling distributed photoelectric detection equipment is cumbersome, and the images displayed by each device are not on the same control panel, resulting in poor automation and a high risk of target loss. The patents with publication number CN105116916A, entitled "A Collaborative Tracking Method for a Distributed Photoelectric Tracking System"; CN109708659A, entitled "A Distributed Intelligent Photoelectric Low-Altitude Protection System"; and CN114219825A, entitled "A Method for Relay Tracking of Targets under Distributed Multi-Photoelectric Deployment," are mainly aimed at land scenarios such as airports and border defense. The targets are mostly low-altitude, slow-moving, small targets such as UAVs. They only involve relay tracking methods between multiple photoelectric tracking devices of the same type and cannot be applied to the information processing, display, and control of multiple targets on shipborne platforms. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The main objective of this invention is to provide a shipborne distributed multi-photoelectric collaborative detection system and method, which can realize the integrated display and control of multiple photoelectric detection devices on the same control panel.
[0005] The technical solution adopted in this invention is:
[0006] A shipborne distributed multi-electro-optical cooperative detection system includes multiple photoelectric search devices, multiple photoelectric tracking devices, an information integration unit, and an integrated control console;
[0007] The photoelectric search and tracking equipment is connected to the information integration unit via a high-speed fiber optic network, and the information integration unit is connected to the integrated control console via fiber optics and network. The photoelectric search and tracking equipment is distributed and installed in multiple locations on the shipborne platform.
[0008] The information integration unit receives azimuth and elevation two-dimensional information of multiple targets output by the photoelectric search equipment via a high-speed fiber optic network, and receives azimuth, elevation, and distance three-dimensional information of the tracked targets output by the photoelectric tracking equipment. It then performs correlation, fusion, and comprehensive identification processing to form comprehensive target information for the shipborne platform area and establishes a comprehensive target information list. In addition, it receives infrared panoramic images output by the photoelectric search equipment and infrared / television images of the tracked targets output by the photoelectric tracking equipment. After stitching, the images are transmitted via fiber optic cable to the integrated control console for comprehensive image display and comprehensive target information list display.
[0009] The integrated control console sends control commands to the information integration unit via the network. The information integration unit then controls the various photoelectric search and tracking devices by adjusting their azimuth and pitch, performing laser ranging, zooming, and switching of sensors according to the control commands.
[0010] According to the above scheme, a target is selected in the target comprehensive information list through the integrated control console for automatic search. The information integration unit dispatches the photoelectric search equipment in the corresponding range and adjusts its pitch angle so that the target is located at the pitch center of the photoelectric search equipment image.
[0011] By selecting a target from the target information list on the integrated control panel, the information integration unit dispatches the corresponding photoelectric tracking devices within the range. The photoelectric tracking devices automatically turn around to automatically capture and track the target. When the target is a moving target and flies out of the azimuth coverage area of the tracking device, the information integration unit automatically selects other photoelectric tracking devices to take over the tracking of the target.
[0012] According to the above scheme, the information integration unit includes information processing software, target recognition software, image integrated display and control software, and equipment scheduling and management software;

[0014] The target recognition software is used to receive and preprocess image information from photoelectric detection equipment, and to perform target type discrimination based on the image. If the target has been associated, it can perform comprehensive target type recognition based on the target type discrimination results of different photoelectric detection equipment, thereby improving the accuracy of target recognition.

[0016] The equipment scheduling and management software is used to receive various statuses from photoelectric detection equipment, obtain resource information such as the operating status of each equipment and the usage status of sensors, and receive instructions from the integrated control console. It also uses the software to allocate and coordinate the equipment based on the resource status of each photoelectric detection device (to realize status management and scheduling control of photoelectric detection equipment).
[0017] According to the above scheme, the information integration unit also includes image storage software; the image storage software is used to receive storage instructions from the integrated control console and store the target comprehensive information, the images output by each photoelectric search device and the photoelectric tracking device.
[0018] According to the above scheme, the integrated control panel includes a display screen, a joystick, a keyboard, and a mouse.
[0019] According to the above scheme, the information integration unit includes a server or an information processing chassis consisting of circuit boards including switching boards, storage boards, information processing boards, and network boards.

[0027] The photoelectric tracking device is used to detect and monitor targets in a specific direction. After the target is detected, it is automatically acquired, tracked and identified as a target type. On the integrated operating platform, the target is measured and the target's azimuth, elevation and distance three-dimensional information is output.
[0028] 3) Information fusion
[0029] The information integration unit receives azimuth and elevation two-dimensional information of multiple targets output by the photoelectric search device, and receives azimuth, elevation and distance three-dimensional information of the tracked target output by the photoelectric tracking device; the above information is correlated, fused and comprehensively identified to form comprehensive target information within the area of the shipborne platform, and a comprehensive target information list is established.
[0030] 4) Integrated display and control
[0031] The information integration unit receives the infrared panoramic image output by the photoelectric search device and the infrared / television image of the tracked target output by the photoelectric tracking device. After stitching the above images, they are sent to the integrated control console via optical fiber for comprehensive image display.
[0032] At the same time, the target comprehensive information list from step 3) is sent to the integrated control console through the information integration unit for comprehensive display of the target information;
[0033] The control panel allows for the adjustment of azimuth and elevation, laser range measurement, zoom adjustment, and / or sensor switching of various photoelectric detection devices.
[0034] 5) Scheduling Management
[0035] The target can be automatically searched by selecting a target in the target comprehensive information list through the integrated control console. The corresponding photoelectric search equipment can be scheduled through the equipment scheduling and management software, and its pitch angle can be adjusted so that the target is located at the pitch center of the photoelectric search equipment image.
[0036] The system allows users to select a target from the target information list on the integrated control panel for automatic tracking. The system then uses the equipment scheduling and management software to dispatch photoelectric tracking devices within the corresponding range. These devices automatically turn around to capture and track the target. When the target is moving and flies out of the coverage area of the tracking device, the system automatically selects other photoelectric tracking devices to continue tracking the target.
[0037] 6) Image storage
[0038] The images and associated target information of the corresponding photoelectric search and tracking devices can be stored using the storage button on the integrated control panel.
[0039] In step 5), the automatic search steps are as follows:
[0040] Select a target from the target information list on the integrated control panel and choose automatic search;
[0041] The target information and the status of the photoelectric search device are received through the information integration unit.
[0042] The device scheduling and management software selects the photoelectric search device corresponding to the target's coverage area and sends a pitch adjustment command to center the target in the image of the photoelectric search device, guiding the photoelectric search device to automatically search for the target.
[0043] In step 5), the automatic tracking steps are as follows:
[0044] Select a target from the target information list on the integrated control panel and choose automatic tracking;
[0045] The target information and the status of the photoelectric search device are received through the information integration unit.
[0046] Select the photoelectric search device corresponding to the target's coverage area through the equipment scheduling and management software, and send azimuth and elevation adjustment commands;
[0047] The photoelectric tracking device automatically rotates to the designated position, automatically captures the target, and continuously tracks the target;

When the target moves out of the azimuth coverage area of the photoelectric tracking device, the equipment scheduling and management software automatically selects other photoelectric tracking devices within the corresponding range to take over tracking the target.
[0049] The beneficial effects of this invention are:
[0050] By setting up an information integration unit and an integrated control console, the integrated display and control of multiple photoelectric detection devices can be realized. The operation is very simple, which solves the problems of cumbersome operation in the existing technology, the fact that the display images of each device are not on the same control console, the poor automation capability, and the easy loss of targets.
[0051] Information channels for photoelectric search and tracking equipment have been established, breaking down information barriers between photoelectric detection equipment on shipboard platforms and enabling interactive sharing and maximum utilization of photoelectric resources.
[0052] Multiple photoelectric detection devices can be integrated and displayed on the same integrated control panel, simplifying target tracking operation steps, improving automation level, and enhancing system availability and practicality.
[0053] Through the comprehensive application of the information integration unit, automatic target search, automatic tracking, and relay tracking between devices can be achieved. While the photoelectric search device searches a wide area, the photoelectric tracking device can quickly obtain distance information of multiple targets, thereby improving search and tracking efficiency.
[0054] With its simple principle, high output accuracy, intuitive image, and strong operability, and the fact that it does not emit electromagnetic waves during operation, it can be widely used in scenarios such as area surveillance, auxiliary navigation, and panoramic reconnaissance and monitoring on shipborne platforms.

[0061] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention.
[0062] Example 1
[0063] See Figures 1-3A shipborne distributed multi-electro-optical cooperative detection system includes multiple optoelectronic search devices, multiple optoelectronic tracking devices, an information integration unit, and an integrated control console. The optoelectronic search devices and optoelectronic tracking devices are connected to the information integration unit via a high-speed fiber optic network, and the information integration unit is connected to the integrated control console via fiber optics and a network.
[0064] Multiple photoelectric search devices and multiple photoelectric tracking devices are distributed across various locations, including the bow, stern, and both sides of the ship, to achieve 360° target detection coverage without blind spots for the shipboard platform. The photoelectric search devices utilize mid-wave infrared or long-wave infrared detectors, rotating in a given pitch direction under the drive of an azimuth servo system to complete continuous horizontal scanning. The output images can be stitched together to form a panoramic image. The images from the photoelectric search devices can be used for target detection and extraction, and can detect more than 100 targets within the 360° panoramic range, typically outputting azimuth and pitch information. The photoelectric tracking devices use mid-wave infrared, long-wave infrared, visible light television, low-light television, or laser rangefinder sensors, which are mounted within the device's two-dimensional mechanical frame turntable. Operators can control the azimuth and pitch of the photoelectric tracking devices via an integrated control panel, enabling reconnaissance and surveillance in a specific direction. After detecting a threatening target, the system can automatically acquire, track, and identify the target's type. During tracking, a laser rangefinder can be used to measure the target's distance, outputting three-dimensional information including azimuth, elevation, and distance. The photoelectric tracking device typically tracks only one target at a time, and the image output frame rate can reach over 50Hz.
[0065] The information integration unit comprises hardware and software components. The hardware includes a server or an information processing chassis containing circuit boards such as switching boards, storage boards, information processing boards, and network boards. The software includes information processing software, target recognition software, image integration and display control software, equipment scheduling and management software, and image storage software. The information processing software receives azimuth and elevation information of multiple targets from photoelectric search equipment via a high-speed fiber optic network, and receives azimuth, elevation, and distance information (two-dimensional / three-dimensional ranging / non-ranging information) of tracked targets from photoelectric tracking equipment. It then performs correlation and fusion processing on this information to form comprehensive target information for the shipborne platform area, establishes a comprehensive target information list, and outputs unified comprehensive target information for the shipborne platform's panoramic area to the image integration and display control software. The target recognition software receives and preprocesses image information from photoelectric detection equipment and performs image-based target type discrimination. If a target has already been associated, it can also perform comprehensive target type recognition based on the target type discrimination results of different photoelectric detection equipment, improving the accuracy of target recognition. The image integration and display software receives target information from the information processing software and target recognition software, as well as image information from various photoelectric search and tracking devices. It integrates and displays various types of information and controls the adjustment and display of these devices. The equipment scheduling and management software receives and processes various status updates from the photoelectric detection devices, including their operating status and sensor usage. It also receives instructions from the integrated control panel and allocates and coordinates the equipment based on its resource status. The image storage software receives storage instructions from the integrated control panel and stores the target integration information and images output by the photoelectric search and tracking devices.
[0066] The integrated control console can be equipped with operating devices including a display screen, joystick, keyboard, and mouse. The integrated control console receives images and target data sent by the information integration unit via fiber optic cable and displays them on the console. It also sends control commands to the information integration unit via network, which then controls the various photoelectric search and tracking devices to adjust their azimuth, pitch, laser rangefinders, zoom, and switch sensors according to these commands. By selecting a target from the comprehensive target information list on the integrated control console, an automatic search can be initiated. The information integration unit then dispatches the corresponding photoelectric search devices within its range, adjusting their pitch angles to center the target within the image of the search devices. Similarly, by selecting a target from the comprehensive target information list on the integrated control console, automatic tracking can be initiated. The information integration unit then dispatches the corresponding photoelectric tracking devices within its range, which automatically turn to acquire and track the target. If the target is moving and flies out of the azimuth coverage area of a tracking device, the information integration unit automatically selects other photoelectric tracking devices to continue tracking the target.
