Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of detection, in particular to a spaceborne infrared and laser active-passive integrated detection system. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the development of infrared detection technology, high-sensitivity infrared detection has become one of the main research directions, and has wide application prospects in the fields of infrared imaging, long-distance detection of weak targets, infrared astronomical observation, etc. In the field of long-distance detection of space weak targets, the infrared detection system has obvious advantages. It passively detects the target by collecting the target's infrared radiation signal; the laser ranging system actively emits ranging laser under the guidance of the infrared system, determines the target distance through the return photon signal, and realizes long-distance detection and ranging of weak targets. The traditional integration idea includes using a separate small-aperture optical telescope to transmit laser, and using a large-aperture telescope for return wave reception and infrared imaging. Due to the limitation of the aperture of the separate optical telescope, this scheme cannot realize the transmission of ultra-narrow divergence angle laser beams, and is difficult to apply to fields above 1000 kilometers. In addition, the inter-axis calibration error also limits the accuracy of tracking and sighting, affecting the ranging function.
[0003] Chinese invention patent (publication number CN 114488172 B) A multi-target three-dimensional information rapid acquisition photoelectric detection system has the functions of infrared imaging, search tracking, three-dimensional information acquisition, etc. on the target. In one detection period, it can acquire multi-dimensional information such as space, thermal radiation, distance, etc. of the target, which is convenient for imaging tracking and threat judgment, etc. This patent is applied to the fields of regional alert, airborne ground detection, long-distance reconnaissance and monitoring, etc. and does not involve the detection and measurement of space long-distance weak point targets. The present application is different from it in that: 1) the detected target is a space micro-target (cross-sectional area 1 square meter), 2) the infrared optical system is a deep cryogenic detection system, 3) a low-temperature narrow-band radiation isolation window is set to isolate the infrared radiation of the normal-temperature laser ranging system, reducing the influence on the infrared detection system, 4) the normal-temperature laser ranging system uses a single-photon detector to receive signals.
