Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of inertial navigation, and in particular provides a multi-target positioning method based on single-point positioning of an optoelectronic pod. Background Art

[0002] The optoelectronic pod is an optoelectronic reconnaissance device that integrates multiple sensors such as visible light, infrared, and laser. It has the ability to detect and identify during day and night. It can provide information on the target's azimuth, pitch angle, distance, and geographic coordinates relative to the carrier aircraft during the mission execution, and conduct reconnaissance and evaluation of the strike effect.

[0003] Generally, the geographic coordinates of the target of the optoelectronic pod are solved by active positioning based on laser ranging. The traditional active positioning method is to send the aircraft attitude and position information to the optoelectronic pod, and convert the coordinates to the coordinate system of the optoelectronic pod through coordinate system conversion. Combined with the internal laser ranging distance of the optoelectronics, the autonomous positioning of the optoelectronic pod can be achieved. However, this method can only obtain the geographic coordinates of the single target at the center of the picture, that is, the position where the optical axis points. If you want to obtain the geographic coordinates of other points in the picture, you need to manually control the optoelectronic pod to move the optical axis to the target to be measured in the picture, and then perform laser ranging to obtain it. The existing technology cannot achieve the simultaneous acquisition of multi-point target information.

[0004] At the same time, lasers cannot be used in all scenarios or the optoelectronic pod does not have a laser rangefinder installed. In this case, the optoelectronic pod cannot accurately locate the coordinates of any target point in the picture. Summary of the invention
