[0020] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the technical solutions of this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0021] To better understand the technical solution of this application, a detailed description will be provided below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0022] It should be noted that the executing entity in this embodiment can be a computing service device with data processing, network communication, and program execution functions, such as a tablet computer, personal computer, or mobile phone, or an electronic device, big data service platform, or optical remote sensing imaging system capable of performing the above functions. The following description uses an optical remote sensing imaging system as an example to illustrate this embodiment and the subsequent embodiments.

[0023] Hyperspectral remote sensing imagery possesses ultra-high spectral resolution, providing richer information on the surface of ground objects. Its narrow bandwidth and multi-band characteristics enable near-continuous spectral data, enhancing the ability to observe target attributes and match them with measured ground spectra. Furthermore, based on the spectral curves of ground objects, hyperspectral data can detect substances with specific spectral absorption characteristics, leading to precise target type differentiation. In addition, the increased number of image bands and spectral information provides more possibilities for ground object identification models and algorithms, and allows for the estimation of ground object state parameters. Its applications have expanded to encompass all aspects of Earth science, becoming an effective technical means in fields such as agricultural remote sensing, environmental monitoring, marine remote sensing, mineral exploration, forest fire monitoring, and oil and gas detection, playing an increasingly important role. While hyperspectral remote sensing imagery possesses excellent spectral resolution, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) limitation of spaceborne optical payloads prevents it from simultaneously achieving both hyperspectral and high spatial resolution. Existing operational satellites, to ensure a spectral SNR across hundreds of bands, are forced to use hyperspectral data with spatial resolutions ranging from meters to tens of meters. Furthermore, the swath width of spaceborne hyperspectral optical payloads is only tens of kilometers, resulting in insufficient spatial resolution for small-scale, detailed monitoring and limited coverage for macro-level surveys. Additionally, the large volume of hyperspectral data requires significant time for on-orbit transmission and ground processing, severely limiting the identification and monitoring of minute targets and the real-time requirements for industrial applications.

[0024] Based on this, this application provides an optical remote sensing imaging method applied to an optical remote sensing imaging device. The device includes an off-axis three-mirror optical module, a beam splitter, a panchromatic detector, and a processor. Light propagates to the off-axis three-mirror optical module, is focused, and then emitted to the beam splitter. The beam splitter separates the light into reflected and transmitted light. After the reflected light enters the hyperspectral optical channel, it is scanned through a slit to obtain a hyperspectral image. After the transmitted light enters the panchromatic optical channel, it is converted by a pre-set panchromatic detector to obtain a panchromatic image with sub-meter high spatial resolution. The processor fuses the panchromatic image and the hyperspectral image to obtain a high spatial resolution target hyperspectral image with a range exceeding 100 kilometers.

[0025] Specifically, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating an embodiment of the optical remote sensing imaging method of this application.

[0026] Step S11: Determine the imaging field of view of the off-axis three-mirror optical module; It should be noted that, referring to Figure 2, Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of ground imaging along the direction of satellite flight. Figure 2 In this context, α represents the imaging field of view of the off-axis three-mirror optical module.

[0027] Step S12: Determine the ground width based on the imaging field of view, wherein light rays from the area corresponding to the ground width propagate to the off-axis three-mirror optical module; It should be noted that the ground swath width is the width of the ground imaging coverage within the imaging field of view α.

[0028] Step S12 includes: acquiring the satellite's orbital altitude; and determining the ground swath width based on the orbital altitude and the imaging field of view.

[0029] In this embodiment, specifically, the orbital altitude of the satellite is obtained, for example, Figure 2 The orbital height H is used to determine the ground swath width of the ground image based on the orbital height and the imaging field of view. The formula for calculating the ground swath width is as follows: B = 2H × tan(α / 2), where B represents the ground swath width, H represents the orbital height, and α represents the imaging field of view.

[0030] It should be noted that when the satellite observes the ground through its optical system while in orbit, light emitted or reflected from a specific width of the observed area on the ground (i.e., the ground swath in this embodiment) propagates through the atmosphere and enters the satellite's off-axis three-mirror optical module. This off-axis three-mirror optical system consists of three non-coaxially arranged mirrors, and its core feature is that all mirrors are offset from the central axis of the optical system, forming an asymmetrical optical path. This off-axis three-mirror optical module achieves wide coverage exceeding 100 kilometers.

[0031] Step S13: The light emitted from the off-axis three-mirror optical module is split into multiple paths for imaging to obtain a panchromatic image and a hyperspectral image; It should be noted that this embodiment adopts a 1:N optical path splitting design, where 1 path is a panchromatic optical channel and N paths are hyperspectral optical channels. The 1:N optical path splitting design refers to an optical architecture that distributes the same incident light beam to one panchromatic optical channel and N hyperspectral optical channels. Optionally, the panchromatic imaging resolution is sub-meter, and the hyperspectral optical channel imaging resolution is on the order of ten meters. While meeting the signal-to-noise ratio requirements of the panchromatic optical channel imaging, the N value is maximized. By increasing the number of hyperspectral optical channels, more optical flux enters the hyperspectral system, compensating for the insufficient light intake caused by its narrow-band splitting.

[0032] In this embodiment, the light emitted from the off-axis three-mirror optical module is split by a preset beam splitter. Part of the split light is reflected by the beam splitter and enters the hyperspectral optical channel. Spectral scanning imaging is completed by scanning slits in conjunction with satellite orbit pushbroom, and a hyperspectral image is finally output. The other part of the light is transmitted through the beam splitter and enters the panchromatic optical channel. A preset panchromatic detector converts the broadband optical signal into an electrical signal, and a panchromatic image is finally output.

[0033] Step S14: The panchromatic image and the hyperspectral image are fused to obtain the target hyperspectral image.

[0034] It should be noted that this embodiment includes an image processor, which is an embedded program hardware with a built-in operating system similar to Linux, and can perform image processing functions, such as image stitching, radiometric correction, and target recognition.

[0035] In this embodiment, specifically, feature extraction is performed on the panchromatic image to obtain detailed features such as edges and textures, resulting in sub-meter-level high spatial resolution spatial detail features. In addition, feature extraction is performed on the hyperspectral image to retain the spectral features of the surface core. The spectral features and the high spatial resolution spatial detail features are fused, that is, the high spatial detail features are precisely injected and fused based on the spectral features, ultimately obtaining a target hyperspectral image with both sub-meter-level spatial resolution and a coverage width of over 100 kilometers.

[0036] This embodiment, through the above-described scheme, includes: determining the imaging field of view of the off-axis three-mirror optical module; determining the ground swath width of the off-axis three-mirror optical module based on the imaging field of view, with light rays from the corresponding area of ​​the ground swath propagating to the off-axis three-mirror optical module; splitting the light rays emitted from the off-axis three-mirror optical module into two optical channels to obtain a panchromatic image and a hyperspectral image; and fusing the panchromatic image and the hyperspectral image to obtain a target hyperspectral image. This embodiment achieves wide coverage with a large field of view exceeding 100 kilometers by employing an off-axis three-mirror optical module. The optical path is split into two optical channels: hyperspectral imaging and panchromatic imaging. Split imaging yields a hyperspectral image and a high spatial resolution panchromatic image. Then, the panchromatic image and the hyperspectral image are fused to obtain a target hyperspectral image with high spatial resolution and a coverage range exceeding 100 kilometers.

[0037] In one feasible implementation, refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a schematic flowchart of an embodiment two of the optical remote sensing imaging method of this application. After fusing the panchromatic image and the hyperspectral image to obtain the target hyperspectral image, the method further includes: Step S21: Target detection is performed on the hyperspectral image of the target to obtain the region of interest image; Step S22: Slice the image of the region of interest to obtain multiple target slices; Step S23: The multiple target slices are transmitted back to the ground station.

[0038] It should be noted that hyperspectral data is large in volume, requiring significant time for on-orbit transmission and ground processing, which greatly limits the identification, monitoring, and real-time requirements of fine targets in industrial applications. In this embodiment, target detection is performed on the target hyperspectral image to determine the region where the target is located. Based on the region where the target is located, the corresponding region is cropped from the original target hyperspectral image to obtain a region of interest (ROI) image. Further, the ROI image is sliced ​​according to a preset slice size to obtain multiple target slices, which are then transmitted to a ground station. Optionally, this transmission can be achieved via the satellite's data transmission antenna using common satellite hyperspectral frequencies such as the X-band or Ka-band.

[0039] This embodiment obtains a region of interest image by performing target detection on the hyperspectral image of the target; slices the region of interest image to obtain multiple target slices; and transmits the multiple target slices back to the ground station, effectively reducing the data transmission pressure on the spacecraft and improving the real-time performance of data transmission.

[0040] In one feasible implementation, refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a schematic flowchart of an embodiment three of the optical remote sensing imaging method of this application; the light emitted from the off-axis three-mirror optical module is split into multiple paths for imaging to obtain a panchromatic image and a hyperspectral image, including: Step S31: The light is split using a preset beam splitting element to form reflected light and transmitted light; It should be noted that the light emitted from the off-axis three-mirror optical module propagates to the beam-splitting element, which can be a dichroic separator, a beam-splitting prism, or a field-of-view divider, etc. Optionally, the beam-splitting element has high transmittance for broadband light (such as visible light and near-infrared full-band) corresponding to the panchromatic channel and high reflectance for narrow spectrum light (such as N subdivided bands) corresponding to the hyperspectral channel. The beam-splitting element splits the light into reflected and transmitted light. In this embodiment, the broadband panchromatic light passes through the dichroic separator and enters one panchromatic optical channel; all narrow spectrum hyperspectral light is directly reflected and enters the subsequent N hyperspectral optical channels.

[0041] Step S32: Perform hyperspectral imaging on the reflected light to obtain a hyperspectral image, and perform panchromatic imaging on the transmitted light to obtain a panchromatic image.

[0042] In this embodiment, after the reflected light enters the hyperspectral optical channel through a slit at the image plane of the off-axis three-mirror optical system, the slit images of different wavelengths are finally imaged at the focal plane of the hyperspectral camera, spreading out along a direction perpendicular to the slit. A hyperspectral image is obtained by scanning the field of view perpendicular to the slit direction. Optionally, in a specific example, the hyperspectral band light reflected from the beam-splitting element first illuminates the scanning slit. The width of the slit corresponds to a narrow band on the ground; for example, if the ground swath is over 100 kilometers wide, the slit only allows a 5-kilometer-wide narrow band of light to pass through. The ground narrow band light passing through the slit enters the beam-splitting component (e.g., grating, prism) within the hyperspectral optical channel. The beam-splitting component splits the narrow band light into N consecutive narrow spectral bands according to wavelength. Furthermore, the split light is projected onto a linear array detector within the hyperspectral channel. The detector converts the optical signal into an electrical signal, resulting in one-dimensional hyperspectral data of a narrow band with N spectral bands on the ground. By scanning the field of view perpendicular to the slit direction, a two-dimensional hyperspectral image with a full swath width exceeding 100 kilometers and N spectral bands is formed. The satellite continues to move forward in its orbit, meaning... Figure 2 The satellite's motion direction corresponding to the ground swath width H is obtained by scanning the satellite in orbit to obtain hyperspectral images with a swath width of over 100 kilometers for more ground targets.

[0043] In this embodiment, after the transmitted light enters the panchromatic optical channel, a preset panchromatic detector converts the transmitted light to obtain the panchromatic image. Optionally, in a specific example, after the transmitted light enters the panchromatic optical channel, it illuminates a preset panchromatic detector. The panchromatic detector can be a CCD (Charge-Coupled Device) or a CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) detector. The detector's photosensitive pixels have high responsivity to broadband light and convert the intensity of the light signal received by each pixel into a corresponding analog electrical signal. Further, the analog electrical signal output by the detector passes through a signal processing module within the panchromatic optical channel. The signal processing module converts the analog electrical signal into a digital signal (i.e., the grayscale value of the pixel), ultimately outputting a panchromatic image. Each pixel in the panchromatic image corresponds to a sub-meter spatial region on the ground, while retaining the brightness information of the broadband light.

[0044] This embodiment uses a pre-set beam splitter to split the light into reflected and transmitted light. After the reflected light enters the hyperspectral optical channel, spectral scanning imaging is performed through a scanning slit to obtain a hyperspectral image. After the transmitted light enters the panchromatic optical channel, a pre-set panchromatic detector converts the transmitted light to obtain a panchromatic image. Spectral scanning imaging through a scanning slit allows the hyperspectral optical channel to image a hyperspectral image containing both ground spatial information (over 100 km swath width) and spectral information. The transmitted light has a wide spectral range and sufficient light intake, enabling the panchromatic optical channel to image a panchromatic image with sub-meter high spatial resolution.

[0045] In one feasible implementation, refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a flowchart illustrating Embodiment 4 of the optical remote sensing imaging method of this application; the step of fusing the panchromatic image and the hyperspectral image to obtain the target hyperspectral image includes: Step S41: Preprocess the panchromatic image and the hyperspectral image; Step S42: Extract features from the preprocessed panchromatic image to obtain high spatial resolution spatial detail features; Step S43: Extract features from the preprocessed hyperspectral image to obtain spectral features; Step S44: The spectral features and the high spatial resolution spatial detail features are fused to obtain the target hyperspectral image.

[0046] It should be noted that preprocessing includes geometric registration, radiometric calibration, and other processing methods. For example, spatial pixel alignment is performed on panchromatic and hyperspectral data, grayscale values ​​of panchromatic and hyperspectral images are converted into physical radiometric values ​​(such as reflectance), and the brightness quantization range of the two is unified.

[0047] In this embodiment, the panchromatic image and the hyperspectral image are preprocessed; then, feature extraction is performed on the preprocessed panchromatic image to extract detailed information such as edges, textures, and contours of ground objects, obtaining high spatial resolution spatial detail features; in addition, feature extraction is also performed on the preprocessed hyperspectral image to obtain spectral morphology information, for example, extracting multi-band spectral curves (such as the characteristics of strong near-infrared reflectance and weak red light reflectance of vegetation) and spectral indices (such as the NDVI vegetation index) for each pixel to obtain spectral features. It should be noted that this embodiment does not limit the execution order of steps S42 and S43; optionally, steps S42 and S43 can be executed simultaneously.

[0048] Furthermore, the spectral features and the high spatial resolution spatial detail features are fused, for example, by using PCA (Principal Component Analysis Fusion Method) to fuse them, thereby injecting panchromatic spatial detail features into the hyperspectral spectral features as a base, resulting in a target hyperspectral image that has both sub-meter level spatial detail and complete spectral features.

[0049] This embodiment extracts features from the preprocessed panchromatic image to obtain high spatial resolution spatial detail features; in addition, it extracts features from the preprocessed hyperspectral image to obtain spectral features; then it fuses the spectral features and the high spatial resolution spatial detail features to obtain a target hyperspectral image with both sub-meter level spatial detail and complete spectral features and a range of over 100 kilometers.

[0050] It should be noted that the examples in the figure are only for understanding this application and do not constitute a limitation on the optical remote sensing imaging method of this application. Any simple modifications based on this technical concept are within the protection scope of this application.

[0051] It should be understood that the sequence number of each step in the above embodiments does not imply the order of execution. The execution order of each process should be determined by its function and internal logic, and should not constitute any limitation on the implementation process of the embodiments of the present invention.
