TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of space-borne cameras, and particularly relates to a method and device for obtaining on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficients of a space-borne camera, an electronic device and a storage medium. BACKGROUND
[0002] High-resolution visible light remote sensing images play an important role in the fields of map surveying and mapping, city planning, land use, environmental monitoring, military reconnaissance, etc., and bring huge economic and military benefits. A large number of high-resolution remote sensing satellites have been launched by countries around the world. With the progress of science and technology, satellite performance is continuously improved, and the cost of developing high-resolution visible light cameras is reduced. Ground observation has also changed from the traditional single-satellite mode to a constellation mode to obtain high-resolution remote sensing images with higher temporal resolution and larger observation range.
[0003] The relative radiometric calibration and correction of high-resolution visible light cameras during on-orbit operation are of great significance in target identification and quantitative remote sensing data application. Whether it is a visible light load or an infrared load, due to factors such as inconsistent detector responses, changes in electronic gain and offset, optical system degradation, and focal plane particle contamination, there are longitudinal stripes, bands or uneven brightness and darkness in the acquired remote sensing images. For target identification applications, these stripes and bands reduce image quality, making it difficult to accurately identify targets from geometric and texture features. For quantitative remote sensing data applications, stripes and bands can increase absolute radiometric calibration errors and affect the accuracy of ground surface parameter (reflectivity, temperature, etc.) inversion. Therefore, on-orbit relative radiometric calibration and correction of high-resolution visible light cameras are needed to eliminate stripes, bands and uneven brightness and darkness in remote sensing images, and to improve image quality and quantitative remote sensing data levels.
[0004] In the traditional single-satellite mode, on-orbit relative radiometric calibration is usually achieved by histogram matching or uniform field method. The histogram matching method needs to statistically analyze a large amount of data to obtain an effective on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficient lookup table, and the calibration period is relatively long. The uniform field method can only quickly obtain on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficients under a certain imaging parameter, and needs to manually select uniform areas. Obviously, these two methods cannot meet the need for rapid on-orbit relative radiometric calibration of multiple satellites in a short period under the constellation mode.
[0005] Therefore, how to improve the efficiency of on-orbit relative radiometric calibration of space-borne high-resolution visible light cameras and meet the need for rapid calibration application under multiple satellites and multiple imaging parameters has become a technical problem that needs to be solved.

[0045] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments of the present application, which are shown by way of example in the accompanying drawings, are intended to explain the present application and cannot be understood as a limitation of the present application.
[0046] The on-orbit relative radiation calibration coefficient acquisition method, device and equipment of a satellite-borne camera of an embodiment of the present application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0047] Figure 1 A flowchart of an on-orbit relative radiation calibration coefficient acquisition method of a satellite-borne camera provided by an embodiment of the present application.
[0048] It should be noted that the execution subject of the on-orbit relative radiation calibration coefficient acquisition method of a satellite-borne camera of an embodiment of the present application is the on-orbit relative radiation calibration coefficient acquisition device of a satellite-borne camera of an embodiment of the present application. The on-orbit relative radiation calibration coefficient acquisition device of a satellite-borne camera can be configured in an electronic device, so that the electronic device can perform the on-orbit relative radiation calibration coefficient acquisition function of a satellite-borne camera.
[0049] As shown in Figure 1 the on-orbit relative radiation calibration coefficient acquisition method of a satellite-borne camera includes the following steps 101-104:
[0050] Step 101, acquiring an on-orbit relative radiation calibration coefficient relationship model under a plurality of imaging parameters. The on-orbit relative radiation calibration coefficient relationship model is used to represent the relationship between the on-orbit relative radiation calibration coefficients under a plurality of imaging parameters.
[0051] As an implementation manner, a method for obtaining an on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficient relationship model under multiple imaging parameters comprises the following steps:
[0052] Based on the imaging parameter adjustment principle and the linear disassemblable principle of the spaceborne camera, an on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficient relationship model under multiple imaging parameters is constructed.
[0053] Based on the laboratory radiometric calibration data of the spaceborne camera, the coefficients of the on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficient relationship model are determined.
[0054] In some embodiments, the implementation manner for constructing an on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficient relationship model under multiple imaging parameters based on the imaging parameter adjustment principle and the linear disassemblable principle of the spaceborne camera comprises the following contents:
[0055] First of all, it needs to be pointed out that a general spaceborne high-resolution visible light camera performs imaging through linear array push-broom imaging, adopts a Time Delay Integration (TDI) technology to improve sensitivity and signal-to-noise ratio, and acquires high-quality images. The working principle of a TDI detector is shown in FIG. 1. Figure 2 The TDI detector is actually a surface array detector with a column number much larger than a row number. The column number of the detector is consistent with the column number of an image, and the row number of the detector represents the number of integrable levels. For example, a ground scene is marked with a star, a triangle and a circle. The camera moves forward with the satellite to perform imaging. At t1, the circle of the ground scene is exposed to the first row of the TDI detector. At t2, the circle of the ground scene is exposed to the second row of the TDI detector, and the charges generated by the exposure of the circle to the first and second rows are accumulated. The triangle of the ground scene is exposed to the first row of the TDI detector. At t3, the circle of the ground scene is exposed to the third row of the TDI detector, and the charges accumulated by the second row are accumulated with the exposure charges of the third row. The triangle of the ground scene is exposed to the second row of the TDI detector, and the charges generated by the exposure of the triangle to the first and second rows are accumulated. The star of the ground scene is exposed to the first row of the TDI detector. In this way, the actual imaging effect is formed, that is, each row of pixel data of an image is actually the result of the charge accumulation of multiple rows of the TDI detector.
[0056] The imaging parameters of the spaceborne high-resolution visible light camera mainly include an exposure time, a gain and an integration level. After the exposure time is set as T, the integration level is set as L and the gain is set as G, each row of the TDI detector is exposed to T, the charge accumulation of the first L rows of the TDI detector is performed, and then the whole is amplified by the gain G. As can be seen, when the integration level is fixed as L, different exposure times or gains can be regarded as the overall amplification of the charge of the first L rows of the TDI detector. When the exposure time and the gain are fixed, different integration levels represent the accumulation of the charges of different row numbers of the TDI detector.
[0057] If the relative radiometric calibration coefficient of imaging parameter 1 (only indicating one state) is obtained, the relationship between the image pixel i gray value before and after the relative radiometric correction is as follows:
[0058]
[0059] wherein, DN represents the gray value of image pixel i after the relative radiometric correction when the imaging parameter is 1; K 1,i and B 1,i represent the relative radiometric calibration coefficient (slope, intercept) of image pixel i when the imaging parameter is 1, DN 1,i DN represents the gray value of image pixel i before the relative radiometric correction when the imaging parameter is 1.
[0060] Similarly, when the imaging parameter is x, the same can be obtained:
[0061]
[0062] wherein, DN represents the gray value of image pixel i after the relative radiometric correction when the imaging parameter is x; K x,i and B x,i represent the relative radiometric calibration coefficient (slope, intercept) of image pixel i when the imaging parameter is x, DN x,i DN represents the gray value of image pixel i before the relative radiometric correction when the imaging parameter is x.
[0063] i) When the integral order is L, there is an overall linear change relationship model between the image pixel response gray value of different exposure times or gains, that is:
[0064] DN x,i = a 1,i × DN 1,i + a 2,i (3)
[0065] wherein, DN x,i represents the gray value of image pixel i when the exposure time or gain is x (the charge accumulation value of the first L rows of detection elements on the TDI detector), DN 1,i represents the gray value of image pixel i when the exposure time or gain is 1 (the charge accumulation value of the first L rows of detection elements on the TDI detector), a 1,i and a 2,i are the gray value response relationship model coefficients of image pixel i with the exposure time or gain, which are only related to the imaging parameter and do not change with the change of the detection element response.
[0066] According to the principle that the exposure time or gain is the overall amplification of the charge of the detection element, formula (3) is brought into formula (2) to have:
[0067]
[0068] Accordingly, the following expression can be derived:
[0069]
[0070] The relationship between the relative radiometric calibration coefficient when the gain or exposure time is x and the relative radiometric calibration coefficient when the gain or exposure time is 1 is as follows:
[0071]
[0072] It can be seen that the slope of the relative radiometric calibration coefficient does not change with the change of the gain or exposure time, the intercept changes with the change of the gain and exposure time, and mainly depends on the coefficient a in the linear relationship model of the image pixel response between different exposure times or gains 1,i and a 2,i .
[0073] ii) When the gain and exposure time are the same, the image pixel response between different integration orders does not have an overall linear transformation, but a cumulative integration relationship, that is:
[0074] DN x,i = DN 1,i + DN2' ,i + DN3' ,i +... + DN x ' ,i (7)
[0075] where DN x,i represents the gray value of pixel i in the image when the integration order is x (the cumulative value of the charge of the first x rows of the pixel on the TDI detector), DN 1,i represents the gray value of pixel i in the image when the integration order is 1 (the cumulative value of the charge of the first row of the pixel on the TDI detector), DN l ' ,i represents the charge value of the lth row of the pixel on the TDI detector when the integration order is 1, and l = 2…x.
[0076] Obviously, when the response of the pixel on the TDI detector changes, it is difficult to derive the expression of the relationship between the relative radiometric calibration coefficient when the integration order is x and the relative radiometric calibration coefficient when the integration order is 1.
[0077] In some embodiments, the implementation of the coefficient of the on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficient relationship model is determined based on the laboratory radiometric calibration data of the satellite-borne camera, including:
[0078] It should be noted that the laboratory radiation calibration data is the integral sphere image data obtained at different exposure times and different gains during camera laboratory radiation calibration. Due to the influence of satellite launch process vibration and space environment, the response of the TDI detector will change over time, resulting in invalidation of the laboratory relative radiation calibration coefficient, but the gray level change relationship caused by exposure time and gain is unchanged. Therefore, by using the integral sphere image data obtained at different exposure times and different gains during camera laboratory radiation calibration, the coefficient of the relative radiation calibration coefficient relationship model under different imaging parameters can be accurately calculated.
[0079] i) Coefficient calculation of relative radiation calibration relationship model under different gains.
[0080] Generally, when the camera development unit sets the gain level, it is divided into 8 levels. The gray level relationship of pixel i under G2 and G1 gain is:
[0081]
[0082] wherein, represents the average gray level of pixel i under gain G2, represents the average gray level of pixel i under gain G1, A i is the amplification factor of pixel i gain increase by 1 level, which is generally set by the camera development unit; then
[0083]
[0084] In actual use, a set of integral sphere image data with the same integral number, the same exposure time and different gains is selected. For each gain corresponding integral sphere image, column average is performed to obtain a data table. The row direction represents the pixel number, the column direction represents the gain level (generally 1, 2, 3…8), and each value in the table represents the response value of pixel i under gain G j , then
[0085] ii) Coefficient calculation of relative radiation calibration relationship model under different exposure times.
[0086] A set of integral sphere image data with the same integral number, the same gain and different exposure times is selected. For each exposure time corresponding integral sphere image, column average is performed, and the relationship between the response gray level of each pixel and the exposure time is obtained by least square fitting as follows:
[0087]
[0088] wherein, represents the average gray level of pixel i under exposure time T j , Tj denotes the exposure time, b 1,i , b 2,i is a model coefficient of the relationship between the response gray value of the pixel i and the exposure time.
[0089] Therefore, it can be deduced that the relationship between the response gray value of the pixel i under the exposure times T2 and T1 is:
[0090]
[0091] wherein, denotes the average gray value of the pixel i under the exposure time T2, denotes the average gray value of the pixel i under the exposure time T1. Then, a 1,i = 1, a 2,i = b 1,i × (T x -T1).
[0092] It can be seen that the finally obtained relationship model of the on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficient includes a relationship model of the relative radiometric calibration coefficient between different gains and a relationship model of the relative radiometric calibration coefficient between different exposure times.
[0093] Step 102, determining the bright field uniform area and the dark field uniform area of the satellite-borne camera under the first imaging parameter in the plurality of imaging parameters.
[0094] As an implementation manner, the implementation method for determining the bright field uniform area and the dark field uniform area of the satellite-borne camera under the first imaging parameter in the plurality of imaging parameters includes the following steps 201-204, as shown in the figure. Figure 3
[0095] Step 201, dividing the dynamic range of the satellite-borne camera into a plurality of linear regions.
[0096] It should be noted that the response of a general satellite-borne visible light camera in the entire dynamic range is not completely linear, and there are nonlinear regions at the low end and the high end. The entire dynamic range can be divided into a plurality of linear regions according to the camera response determined by the laboratory calibration. Optionally, the entire dynamic range is divided into three linear regions.
[0097] Step 202, selecting the bright and dark uniform fields for each linear region in the plurality of linear regions, and obtaining the bright and dark uniform field image products under the first imaging parameter.
[0098] As an implementation manner, from the global calibration field network database, a bright and dark uniform field is selected in each linear area, and data information (including central longitude and latitude, altitude, size, etc.) of the bright and dark uniform field is obtained; based on this, a calibration task planning is performed on a spaceborne high-resolution visible light camera, and a large-area bright and dark uniform field image product under the same imaging parameters (the same integration order, exposure time and gain) is obtained, the large-area bright and dark uniform field image product including image data, metadata and RPC (Rational Polynomial Coefficient, rational polynomial coefficient) information.
[0099] In step 203, based on the data information of the bright and dark uniform fields, the row range of the uniformity evaluation area in the bright and dark uniform field images is determined.
[0100] As an implementation manner, according to the central longitude and latitude and the altitude of the bright and dark uniform fields, the position (row and column numbers) of the uniform field site in the image is located in combination with the RPC information; according to the height of the bright and dark uniform fields and the camera spatial resolution, the row range of the uniformity evaluation area is calculated and determined as follows:
[0101]
[0102] Wherein, row represents the row range of the uniformity evaluation area, r c represents the row number of the uniform field in the image, Field H represents the height of the uniform field, and R represents the camera spatial resolution.
[0103] In step 204, a target image area corresponding to the row range of the uniformity evaluation area in the bright and dark uniform field image product is determined, the target image area is divided into a plurality of full-width sliding evaluation windows, and based on the uniformity of each full-width sliding evaluation window, a bright and dark field uniform area of the spaceborne camera under the first imaging parameter is determined.
[0104] As an implementation manner, the full-width sliding evaluation window is divided, and the window width contains all the pixels, as shown in the following table: Figure 4 The window height can be generally set to 20, the window is slid from top to bottom, the uniformity of each window is calculated, and the window with the minimum uniformity is automatically selected, that is, the bright and dark field uniform area of the spaceborne camera is determined, which is used for relative radiometric calibration coefficient calculation.
[0105]
[0106] Wherein, U i represents the uniformity of window i, σ i represents the gray scale standard deviation of window i, represents the gray scale average value of window i.
[0107] In step 103, the on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficient under the first imaging parameter is obtained based on the bright field uniform area and the dark field uniform area.
[0108] As an implementation manner, the average gray value of the bright field uniform area and the dark field uniform area and the gray column mean of each detector element are obtained to obtain an equation group; the equation group is solved to obtain the on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficient under the first imaging parameter.
[0109] For example, based on the automatic selection of the optimal uniform area of the bright and dark uniform fields, the average gray value of the bright and dark uniform areas and the gray column mean of each detector element are calculated to obtain the following equation group:
[0110]
[0111] wherein, DN represents the average gray value of the bright field uniform area, DN H,i DN represents the gray column mean of the detector element i of the bright field uniform area, DN represents the average gray value of the dark field uniform area, DN L,i DN represents the gray column mean of the detector element i of the dark field uniform area, DN i K represents the slope of the relative radiometric calibration coefficient of the detector element i, B i K represents the intercept of the relative radiometric calibration coefficient of the detector element i.
[0112] The equation group is solved to obtain the relative radiometric calibration coefficient.
[0113] It should be noted that after obtaining the relative radiometric calibration coefficient, it is also necessary to verify whether the relative radiometric calibration coefficient is effective.
[0114] In some embodiments, the method for verifying whether the relative radiometric calibration coefficient is effective comprises:
[0115] According to the on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficient, the other uniform scene images and complex scene images with matching imaging parameters are subjected to relative radiometric correction, and the longitudinal stripes and uneven brightness and darkness on the corrected images are effectively eliminated, which indicates that the obtained on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficient is effective.
[0116] Therefore, steps 102 and 103 utilize the uniform field method to realize the rapid acquisition of the relative radiometric calibration coefficient under a certain imaging parameter.
[0117] In step 104, the on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficient under other imaging parameters is obtained based on the on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficient relationship model and the on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficient under the first imaging parameter.
[0118] After obtaining the on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficients under the first imaging parameter automatically, according to the constructed on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficient relationship model (including the relative radiometric calibration coefficient relationship model between different gains and the relative radiometric calibration coefficient relationship model between different exposure times), the on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficients under different gains can be deduced with a fixed exposure time, or the on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficients under different exposure times can be deduced with a fixed gain, and the specific deduction method is as shown in Figure 5
[0119] Through deduction, after obtaining the on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficients under other imaging parameters, the obtained on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficients can be verified for effectiveness, and the verification method is as follows:
[0120] The on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficients under a certain imaging parameter obtained through deduction are used to perform relative radiometric correction on other uniform scene images and complex scene images matched with the imaging parameter, and the longitudinal stripes and uneven brightness and darkness on the corrected images are effectively eliminated, which indicates that the deduced on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficients are effective, and the following average row standard deviation method can be used to evaluate the relative radiometric calibration accuracy of the corrected uniform scene images.
[0121]
[0122] wherein, RCP represents the relative radiometric calibration accuracy, N represents the total number of pixels, represents the average gray value of the i-th column of pixels in the uniform area of the corrected image, is the average gray value of the uniform area of the corrected image.
[0123] The method for obtaining the on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficients of a spaceborne camera according to embodiments of this application obtains an on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficient relationship model characterizing the relationship between on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficients under different imaging parameters, determines the uniform bright field region and uniform dark field region of the spaceborne camera under a certain imaging parameter, and obtains the on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficients under that imaging parameter based on the uniform bright field region and uniform dark field region; based on the on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficient relationship model and the on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficients under that imaging parameter, the on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficients under other imaging parameters are obtained, realizing the automated calculation of the on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficients of the spaceborne camera, and enabling the derivation of the on-orbit relative radiometric calibration parameters under different imaging parameters, improving the efficiency of obtaining the on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficients of the spaceborne visible light camera, thereby enabling rapid on-orbit relative radiometric calibration of high-resolution visible light cameras under multiple satellites and multiple imaging parameters, solving the problem in related technologies that the on-orbit relative radiometric calibration efficiency of high-resolution visible light cameras in current large-scale satellite constellation systems is low and difficult to meet the needs of rapid calibration applications under multiple satellites and multiple imaging parameters. Furthermore, the uniform field method offers the advantage of rapidly obtaining relative radiometric calibration coefficients for a given imaging parameter, and its calibration efficiency is further improved through an automatic uniform region selection method. This method was applied to a spaceborne high-resolution visible light camera, yielding effective on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficients and achieving good correction results.
[0124] To clearly illustrate the above embodiments, specific examples will now be used for explanation.
[0125] The following example, using a satellite-borne high-resolution visible light camera laboratory and on-orbit Earth observation data, illustrates how this invention achieves the automatic calculation and derivation of its on-orbit relative radiometric calibration coefficients.
[0126] Using laboratory integrating sphere calibration data of this camera, a relationship model was established between the detector response grayscale values under different exposure times (1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 ms), as follows: Figure 6a and Figure 6b As shown. From Figure 6a and Figure 6b As can be seen, the grayscale value of the camera's detector response is directly proportional to the exposure time, showing a good linear relationship with a Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.999. The relationship between the grayscale values of the edge and center detectors and the exposure time obtained through linear fitting is shown in Table 1. It can be seen that the response relationships of the edge and center detectors are slightly different, mainly due to the difference in transmittance between the center and edge of the optical lens. This difference will be eliminated during the relative radiometric calibration process.
[0127] Table 1: Relationship between detector response grayscale value and exposure time (model parameters)
[0128]
[0129] The relationship model between the response gray value of the detector and the gain is established using the camera laboratory integrating sphere calibration data, as shown in Figure 7 The response gray value of the detector and the gain under 3-gain and 4-gain is shown in the figure, the horizontal coordinate represents the pixel sequence number, and the vertical coordinate represents the gray relationship, i.e., a1. It can be seen that the values of a1 of different detectors are not much different, the difference is in the third decimal place, and the average value is about 1.1, which is consistent with the 1.1 n relationship set by the camera development unit.
[0130] The results of automatic selection of the bright and dark field uniform regions are shown in Figure 8a and Figure 8b . The bright field is a desert image, and the dark field is an ocean image. In order to illustrate the relationship between the selected window and the uniformity curve, the sliding window moves from top to bottom in the image, and the left side of each figure is the relationship curve between the uniformity of the sliding window and the row number as the sliding window moves down by one row, and the right side is the position of the window with the minimum uniformity in the image marked by the program. It can be seen that the row number of the window with the minimum uniformity and the position in the image are corresponding, indicating that the automatic selection method of the uniform region is effective.
[0131] Figure 9a The integrating sphere image with an exposure time of 20 ms has many longitudinal stripes and uneven brightness and darkness due to the inconsistency of the response of the detector. The relative radiometric calibration coefficient of the 20 ms exposure time is calculated from the relative radiometric calibration coefficient of the 10 ms exposure time, and the 20 ms exposure time integrating sphere image is corrected, and the result is shown in Figure 9b . It can be seen that the stripes and uneven brightness and darkness in the image are effectively eliminated, and the integrating sphere image becomes more uniform, indicating the correctness of the established relative radiometric calibration coefficient deduction relationship model between different gains.
[0132] The relative radiometric calibration coefficient of 3-gain is calculated using the desert and ocean uniform field images obtained on orbit, and the relative radiometric calibration coefficient of 4-gain is calculated from the relative radiometric calibration coefficient of 3-gain according to the established relative radiometric calibration coefficient deduction relationship between different gains. The desert image obtained by 4-gain ( Figure 10a ) is corrected, and the correction effect is shown in Figure 10c , while Figure 10b is the correction effect of the laboratory relative radiometric calibration coefficient of 4-gain on Figure 10a . It can be seen that the desert image before correction has stripes and uneven brightness and darkness, which affects the recognition of desert texture and details. The relative radiometric calibration coefficient obtained on orbit is used to correct the image, which can effectively eliminate the stripes and uneven brightness and darkness, and the laboratory relative radiometric calibration coefficient is no longer applicable, and the correction effect is not as good as the relative radiometric calibration coefficient obtained on orbit.
