TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] Under the trend of modern laser communication and high-precision target recognition towards long distance, miniaturization and intelligence, a precise optical system integrating laser emission, optical tracking and high-resolution imaging has become an indispensable core equipment in the fields of space communication, remote sensing and tactical guidance. As a key technical node, the laser emission integrated device effectively couples laser output, beam control and target tracking capability through integrated configuration, greatly improving the reaction speed and strike accuracy of the system, and is an important direction for the upgrade and evolution of current high-end optoelectronic equipment.

[0003] However, the existing device still faces a series of technical bottlenecks that need to be broken through in terms of structural stability, thermal control efficiency and optical precision.

[0004] A 360° passive detection and common-aperture laser emission device is disclosed in Chinese Patent No. CN116105543A. The common-aperture off-axis three-mirror optical system unit is used to emit a light beam and simultaneously receive a target light beam for target tracking. A transceiving coaxial laser radar optical system is disclosed in Chinese Patent No. CN120044500A, relating to the field of laser radar technology. The optical system includes a transmitting assembly, a polarization beam splitter prism, a quarter-wave plate, a common beam expander lens group, a microlens array, a common lens, and a receiving assembly arranged in sequence. The transmitting assembly emits laser light into the polarization beam splitter prism, where the light beam is linearly polarized light. The light beam can pass through the polarization beam splitter prism, then pass through the quarter-wave plate to reach the common beam expander lens group, perform collimation and expansion, and finally exit through the microlens array and the common lens. The exiting laser beam hits an object and returns a light signal. The returned light signal returns to the polarization beam splitter prism along the original light path and is reflected into the receiving assembly for reception and processing. The design of the existing common-aperture optical system inevitably brings about high requirements for lens assembly and adjustment precision, complex process, difficulty in wavefront quality control, and difficulty in extreme compression of physical space occupation, while pursuing transceiving integration.

[0051] Embodiment two, as shown in the laser emission integrated device according to the tracking method of embodiment one, the tracking method comprises the following steps: Figure 10

[0052] Step one: start the optical antenna system, and the controller completes the power-on self-test and function initialization of the core units such as the laser 2, the galvanometer 7, the fine tracking lens, and the feedback analysis module in turn. The laser 2 outputs pulsed laser with a wavelength of 1064 nm according to the system requirements, adopts a Nd:YAG solid laser, has a pulse width of ≤10 ns, a repetition frequency of ≥100 Hz, and a single pulse energy of ≥100 mJ. The system confirms that the laser cooling system 2 two 24V fans are stably started, the wind speed is ≥2.5 m / s, and the air duct forms a closed loop guide. The temperature of the laser shell is stably kept at 25±1℃. The controller initializes the communication protocol, and establishes a high-speed communication link with the RS422 galvanometer and GigEVision.

[0053] Step two: the coarse tracking branch is started, the coarse tracking camera is set to 100 fps, the resolution is 2048×2048, the pixel is 6.5μm, and the field of view angle is 7.62°. The target is placed at about 8 meters away, and the coarse tracking lens is imaged. The focal length of the lens is about 90 mm, and the relative aperture is F / 3.0. The target is searched and identified in the observation area, the target feature profile is extracted, the initial identification and spatial positioning of the target are realized. The coarse tracking path identification result is fed back to the controller in real time through the high-speed communication interface, the controller collects the image centroid, calculates the miss distance, drives the galvanometer to realize the coarse adjustment in the range of ±3 mrad, and makes the laser emission path roughly align with the target direction, so as to ensure that the subsequent fine tracking has an initial positioning basis.

[0054] Step three: when the coarse tracking path completes the preliminary capture, the fine tracking branch is started, the fine tracking camera works under the same parameters, the lens focal length is about 150 mm, F / 2.8, and the high-resolution target image is obtained. The image algorithm identifies the edge and geometric features, and feeds back to the controller. The controller drives the galvanometer to complete the fine adjustment of the optical axis, and coincides with the target center, so as to ensure that the laser is accurately aligned.

[0055] ​Step four: when the target capture is completed and the galvanometer angle is adjusted, the laser output pulse laser is started, the 1064nm laser passes through the 0.5~0.7µm band-pass filter into the optical path, avoids the interference of ambient light, passes through the beam expander and collimation module through the light splitting mirror system to accurately adjust the path, and forms a 22.5mm diameter parallel light. Then the main laser is reflected by the primary mirror and the secondary mirror in turn, and then output after precise focusing by the focusing lens group, so as to realize the long-distance transmission ability of high energy and high collimation.

[0056] Step five: after the main laser completes beam expansion and focusing, it hits the preset target area, and the laser generates a thermal effect, breakdown or ablation phenomenon on the target surface to form a specific reflection signal. The main optical system synchronously opens the receiving channel, uses the primary mirror to reversely receive the reflection signal, and re-focuses the reflection signal to the fine tracking branch through the primary mirror, the secondary mirror and the focusing group. The filter suppresses 0.8~1.2µm stray light. The system synchronously collects the reflection characteristic image of the target surface, the light intensity change curve and the thermal spot morphology, evaluates the laser action process through the effect analysis module, and judges whether it hits, whether the energy is sufficient and whether the target state meets the combat conditions.

[0057] Step six: the controller adjusts the galvanometer angle according to the evaluation result , and drives the fine tracking lens to reacquire the target key features to complete the closed-loop correction. High-frequency and high-precision continuous laser tracking and striking are realized. The controller updates the galvanometer control parameters in real time, instructs the galvanometer to make a small adjustment in posture, drives the fine tracking lens to reacquire the target key feature points, realizes the closed-loop correction of the optical path, and ensures the continuous and accurate action of the laser.

The tracking and aiming method implemented by the integrated laser emitting device according to any one of claims 1-9, characterized in that, The tracking aiming method includes the following steps: Step 1: Start the integrated laser emission device. The controller will sequentially complete the power-on self-test and function initialization of the core units of the laser (2), electronic galvanometer (701), precision tracking lens, and feedback analysis module. Step 2: By searching and identifying targets in the observation area, extracting target feature contours, and achieving initial target identification and spatial positioning; Step 3: Acquire a high-resolution target image. The image algorithm identifies edges and geometric features and feeds them back to the controller. The controller drives the galvanometer to complete the fine-tuning of the optical axis, aligning it with the center of the target to ensure accurate laser alignment. Step 4: After the target acquisition is completed and the angle of the electronic galvanometer (701) is adjusted, the laser (2) is started to output pulsed laser. The 1064nm laser enters the optical path through a 0.5~0.7µm bandpass filter, forming a parallel light with a diameter of 22.5mm. Then the main laser is reflected by the primary mirror and the secondary mirror in sequence, and then precisely focused by the focusing lens group before being output. Step 5: The main optical system synchronously opens the receiving channel and uses the primary mirror to receive the reflected signal in reverse. The signal is then refocused onto the fine tracking branch via the primary mirror, secondary mirror, and focusing group. The main optical system simultaneously acquires images of the target surface reflection characteristics, light intensity change curves, and hot spot morphology. The laser action process is evaluated through the effect analysis module to determine whether it hits, whether the energy is sufficient, and whether the target status meets the operational conditions. Step 6: The controller adjusts the angle of the electronic galvanometer (701) according to the evaluation results and drives the fine tracking lens to reacquire the key features of the target to complete the closed-loop correction. The controller updates the control parameters of the electronic galvanometer (701) in real time, instructs the electronic galvanometer (701) to perform attitude fine adjustment, and drives the fine tracking lens to reacquire the key feature points of the target to achieve closed-loop correction of the optical path.
