Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of far-field light spot measurement, and in particular to a far-field light spot measurement system and a measurement method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The far-field spot measurement system is a technology used to accurately measure the temporal and spatial distribution of the intensity of the laser spot under far-field conditions, which is crucial for analyzing the atmospheric transmission effect of strong lasers and evaluating the performance of laser systems. With the widespread application of laser technology in laser communications, laser radar, laser ranging and other fields, higher requirements are placed on the measurement of laser performance parameters. The far-field spot measurement system usually includes a diffuse reflection target plate, an optical lens, a CCD camera, a computer, image acquisition software and spot analysis software.

[0003] Although the existing far-field spot measurement system plays an important role in the application of laser technology, it also has some shortcomings and limitations. The first is that the system error is relatively large. Since the main optical axis of the CCD camera lens may not coincide with the normal of the diffuse reflection target plate, there is an angle, which will cause system errors. This error can be reduced by using a correction coefficient, but it still requires additional processing steps. In addition, the non-uniformity of the laser response of a single pixel of the CCD detector will affect the measurement accuracy of the spot centroid. In addition, during the spot image acquisition and processing, the system may be affected by noise, especially when there is uneven illumination or burst noise in the spot image. The traditional segmentation algorithm may not be able to accurately segment the spot. Summary of the invention

[0029] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with embodiments.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, a far-field spot measurement system provided by an embodiment of the present invention includes: a transmitter adjustment device 1, a receiver adjustment device 2 and a computer; the transmitter adjustment device 1 and the receiver adjustment device 2 are respectively arranged on both sides of the target 3 to be measured.

The first Z axis is perpendicular to the XY plane. The laser 11, the collimating lens barrel 12 and the first adjustment device 13 together constitute the transmitter.

[0032] In this embodiment, the laser 11 is a 532 nm (±0.1 nm) solid-state laser produced by Changchun New Industries Optoelectronics Technology Co., Ltd.

[0033] The collimating lens barrel 12 receives the laser beam emitted by the laser 11, and expands the diameter of the laser beam to the required caliber according to the actual use situation.

The direction of the second displacement turntable 233 moving in the plane of the third connection seat 235 perpendicular to the propagation direction of the laser beam (i.e., the direction of the width of the third connection seat 235) is defined as the second Y-axis. The direction perpendicular to the plane determined by the second X-axis and the second Y-axis (i.e., the direction perpendicular to the plane where the third connection seat 235 is located) is defined as the second Z-axis.

[0049] like Figure 4 As shown, the receiving end adjustment device 2 includes a telephoto lens 21, a high-speed camera 22 and a second adjustment device 23; the telephoto lens 21 is located at a preset position directly in front of the high-speed camera 22, and is used to receive the laser beam in the far field; the telephoto lens 21 is connected to the second adjustment device 23, and the second adjustment device 23 is used to adjust the position of the telephoto lens 21 in the second XY plane and the height of the telephoto lens 21 in the second Z-axis direction to ensure that the telephoto lens 21 receives and focuses the laser beam; the high-speed camera 22 collects the spot image formed by the laser beam irradiated on the target 3 to be measured.

The second adjustment foot 232 is used to adjust the height of the second adjustment base plate 231, and then adjust the height of the telephoto lens 21 in the second Z-axis direction.

[0054] In this embodiment, the end of the telephoto lens 21 close to the high-speed camera 22 is defined as the rear end, and the end of the telephoto lens 21 away from the high-speed camera 22 is defined as the front end.

[0055] The second connecting plate 234 is disposed on the second displacement turntable 233, and the third connecting seat 235 and the fourth connecting seat 236 are disposed on the second connecting plate 234.

[0061] To ensure that the far-field spot measurement system has sufficient rigidity and strength; at the same time, it has good dimensional stability under harsh temperature conditions to ensure that the changes in the visual axis and mirror surface are within the allowable range. To this end, a comprehensive engineering analysis of its optical and mechanical structure was carried out to analyze the rigidity feasibility of the far-field spot measurement system, including mechanical properties such as static rigidity and dynamic rigidity, as well as the ability to resist mechanical vibration interference under emission and space working conditions. The engineering analysis was modeled using NX and solved using NX / Nastran. The analysis results showed that the far-field spot measurement system structure is stable and reliable.
