Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of optical design technology, specifically to a large-image-plane low-distortion imaging technique method for relay coupling of a broadband hyperspectral imaging telescope with multiple spectrometers, and particularly to a design method for an image-plane multiplication relay structure for a broadband hyperspectral imaging telescope. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional spaceborne hyperspectral cameras suffer from narrow spatial and spectral coverage and low sensitivity, severely hindering their application in environmental, resource, and oil and gas emission monitoring. This is primarily because traditional hyperspectral imaging struggles to balance spatial and spectral coverage, resolution, and sensitivity. Specifically, for telescopes, multiple spectrometers and detectors need to be integrated within their orbital field of view to achieve broad-spectral detection. Wide-swath detection is achieved through a large field of view in the telescope's orbital direction. The wider the spectral range, the more fields of view need to be segmented along the orbital direction to accommodate more spectrometers and detectors. Furthermore, when the detector chip's size is insufficient to support a wide swath, the field of view needs to be further segmented along the telescope's orbital direction so that smaller detectors can be pieced together to create a wider field of view in the orbital direction. Therefore, hyperspectral imaging telescopes must possess not only a large field of view in the orbital direction for wide swath detection but also a large field of view along the orbital direction for broad spectral coverage. Meanwhile, to ensure a large observation range and high spatial resolution in both spatial and spectral dimensions, a greater number of pixels is required in both dimensions. Furthermore, with finer spatial and spectral resolution, large pixels and small F-numbers are needed to achieve a relatively large aperture and ensure high sensitivity, while telecentric imaging of the image plane is required to achieve low distortion and ensure high accuracy. Therefore, rectangular large image plane and small F-number telecentric imaging have become a fundamental requirement for spaceborne wide-swath, wide-spectrum hyperspectral imaging telescopes. Traditional paraxial optical imaging telescopes, affected by the sharp deterioration of distortion with the field of view according to the cubic and quintic polynomial relationship, struggle to simultaneously achieve rectangular large image plane and small F-number telecentric imaging in both spatial and spectral dimensions, and cannot achieve coupling and integration with multiple spectrometers and detectors in both spectral and spatial dimensions.
[0003] Achieving relay coupling between the telescope, spectrometer, and detector has become a crucial and primary technological challenge for spaceborne broadband hyperspectral imaging. Traditional relay structures only serve to divide the field of view and lack functions for adjusting field of view telecentrism, image distance, and aberrations, as well as the ability to effectively enlarge the telescope's image plane. For example, the 2011 domestic paper "Design of Optical System for Large Field-of-View High-Resolution Spaceborne Imaging Spectrometer" uses a "field-of-view separation structure + dichroic slice" approach to connect four spectrometer systems, achieving field-of-view and spectral band stitching. The 2020 international paper "MAVIS IFU with AO for VLT: image slicer concept and design" designed a field splitter that divides the field into two and images each subfield onto a slicer mirror array composed of slender mirrors, sending it in different directions so that it can be re-imaged side-by-side by another mirror array on the slit. The EnMap hyperspectral camera launched in 2022 uses a single-blade mirror relay structure to achieve a 24mm slit width and 24μm dual-strip field-of-view segmentation, connecting to spectrometers in the 0.4-1.0μm and 1.0-2.5μm spectral bands respectively, achieving broadband detection, but the swath width is only 30km.
[0004] In view of this, this invention proposes a telescope optical relay structure that adjusts parameters such as the telescope's image plane, telecentrism, and aberrations, effectively expanding the telescope's field of view in both the through-track and along-track directions. This overcomes the major technical bottleneck of traditional telescopes and relay structures, which struggle to achieve rectangular, large-image-plane, low-F-number telecentric imaging. It can increase the spectral width and swath width capabilities of spaceborne hyperspectral imaging by several times. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention provides a design method for a relay structure for wide-spectrum, wide-swath hyperspectral imaging telescope image plane multiplication. It constructs the structure, model, and relational parameters for field segmentation, image plane multiplication, telecentric control, and field curvature / distortion aberration control, forming a complete parameter design system for the relay structure. This effectively controls the telecentricity, image distance, and aberrations of the spectral imaging telescope, achieving a near-order-of-magnitude multiplication of the telescope's spectral image plane. It solves the major challenge of docking and arranging multiple spectrometers and their large-scale mosaic detectors with the front telescope, opening a new path for spaceborne hyperspectral cameras to achieve wide-spectrum, wide-swath, high-resolution, high-sensitivity, and high-precision detection.

[0021] The present invention adopts the above technical solution and has the following beneficial effects:
[0022] This invention proposes a design method for a relay structure for image plane multiplication in a wide-spectrum, wide-swath hyperspectral imaging telescope. For the first time, it presents the key parameter relationships and optimization strategies for image plane multiplication, telecentric adjustment, and aberration control in the relay structure. It also realizes image plane multiplication, telecentric adjustment, and aberration control for the first time in the relay optics of a hyperspectral imaging telescope, breaking through the technical bottleneck of traditional telescopes that struggle to balance large rectangular image planes with low F-numbers and low distortion with high image quality. This invention opens up a new path for the design and application of telecentric imaging telescopes with large rectangular image planes and low F-numbers.
[0023] By innovatively constructing a quantitative relationship between image plane, aberration, and optical structure parameters, the complex mirror design problem of large image plane and low distortion in traditional telescopes is transformed into a problem of solving relay structure parameters. It has extremely strong image plane multiplication and aberration control characteristics. With only low-order optical lens combinations and optical path control, the design requirements for image plane multiplication and aberration control in different scenarios can be achieved.
[0024] The innovative combination of relay structure design and telescope optimization alleviates the telescope's requirements for telecentrism and aberration, resolving the significant contradiction between the telescope's large image plane and low distortion design and its engineering implementation, and achieving several times the improvement in image plane, telecentrism, and aberration.
[0025] The designed image-multiplying relay structure allows the telescope to expand its field of view along the track while maintaining the field of view in the track-crossing direction. This enables the use of small-area array detectors in spectrometers, overcoming the bottleneck of limited detector chip size. Furthermore, by setting the relay structure mirrors as even-order aspherical or freeform surfaces and independently optimizing the segmented strip field of view, the telescope's image plane can be further expanded, providing an effective technical means for broadband-wide swath, high spatial-hyperspectral-high radiometric resolution, and high sensitivity-high precision hyperspectral imaging.

Increasing the value of realizes the wavefront aberration of the system. This scaling effect on the field of view, in turn, affects the magnitude of aberration changes with the field of view. For example, for Aberration terms (such as astigmatism) equal to 2, when When it is twice the original value, it resembles a scattered term. Return to the original state The astigmatism will be significantly reduced, which is equivalent to using Like scattered ( The field of view enables aberration control for H-field-of-view detection.

[0110] refer to Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the effect of a telescope image plane multiplication relay structure on telescope image plane control in the context of the present invention: without the relay structure, the image plane is small and diffusion distortion is severe (e.g., Figure 7 As shown in (a), the relay structure achieves a telecentric large image plane and low diffusion distortion (e.g. Figure 7 As shown in (b), based on the field-of-view segmentation function of the relay structure, an image plane multiplication function is added to multiply the image plane spacing of the telescope strip field of view, so as to meet the requirements of the multispectral and multi-specification detector splicing layout in wide-spectrum and wide-swath hyperspectral detection for a large image plane of the telescope; a telecentric adjustment function is added to independently adjust the telecentric angle of the strip field of view segmented by the telescope, so that the principal ray of each strip field of view is as perpendicular as possible to the telescope image plane (the telescope image plane is the object plane of the rear optical spectrometer), thereby improving the influence of the telescope field of view image-side telecentricity on the spectral imaging of the rear optical spectrometer, while reducing the telescope telecentricity requirement and making it easier to achieve a larger field of view and a larger image plane; an aberration adjustment function is added to segmentally adjust the optical path path and propagation direction of each strip field of view, thereby improving the field curvature and strip distortion between the telescope strip fields of view. In summary, by adding image plane multiplication, telecentric adjustment, and aberration control to the relay structure, the development difficulty of the broadband wide-swath telescope will be reduced, the coupling between the telescope and the spectrometer will be improved, and low-distortion, low-diffusion, large-image-plane hyperspectral imaging can be effectively achieved.

[0122] refer to Figure 10 This is a schematic diagram of a second embodiment of a wide-spectrum, wide-swath hyperspectral imaging telescope image plane multiplication relay structure according to the present invention. The relay structure 30 includes: two sets of first-stage field-of-view splitters 31, a first-stage field-of-view splitter frame structure 32, three sets of second-stage field-of-view splitters 33, an image plane multiplication common reference base 34, six sets of image plane multipliers 35, an image plane multiplier frame 36, three sets of dual-field-of-view slit stops 37, a slit contamination protection window 38, and a common reference structure skeleton 39. (Reference) Figure 11 This is a schematic diagram of a second embodiment of the telescope image plane multiplication relay structure for wide-spectrum and wide-swath hyperspectral imaging according to the present invention, illustrating a 6-path field-of-view splitting and image plane multiplication. The spaceborne hyperspectral imaging system telescope converges six different field-of-view beams, which then pass through a slit contamination protection window. Slits 1 and 2, and 5 and 6, are two sets of field-of-view beam paths that pass through a first-stage field-of-view splitter 31 and a second-stage field-of-view splitter 33, respectively. Slits 3 and 4 pass directly through another set of second-stage field-of-view splitters 33, resulting in the required striped field-of-view beam paths. The three split striped field-of-view beam paths are reflected by the corresponding field-of-view image plane multiplier 35 and enter the dual-field-of-view slit aperture 37 to obtain the slit striped field-of-view exit light. (Reference) Figure 12 This is a schematic diagram illustrating image plane multiplication and multi-dimensional image plane control in Embodiment 2 of the telescope image plane multiplication relay structure for wide-spectrum and wide-swath hyperspectral imaging according to the present invention. Based on the principles and mechanisms of field-of-view splitting, image plane multiplication, and image plane control, image plane multiplication and multi-dimensional image plane control are achieved through the coordinated design of the field-of-view splitting mirror 33 and the field-of-view image plane multiplier 35. Image plane multiplication is achieved by splitting the incident light by the field-of-view splitting mirror 33 and reflecting and modulating the light by the field-of-view image plane multiplier 35, multiplying the image plane length d1 along the track of slits 1 and 2 to D2, the image plane length d2 along the track of slits 3 and 4 to D2, and the image plane length d3 along the track of slits 5 and 6 to D3. Expanded layout space: By combining the modulation effect of the two sets of field-of-view first-level split mirrors 31, the original same-side layout of d1, d2, and d3 is transformed into a three-way layout of D1, D2, and D3, which not only doubles the image plane but also greatly expands the layout space of the subsequent optical system.
[0123] refer to Figure 13 This diagram illustrates the image plane segmentation and application of a wide-spectrum, wide-swath hyperspectral imaging telescope image plane multiplication relay structure according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention, as well as the configuration of different band detectors in wide-spectrum, wide-swath detection. Here, n1 represents the spatial dimension specification of detector model M1, n2 represents the spatial dimension specification of detector model M2, and n3 represents the spatial dimension specification of detector model M3. The relay structure segments a large image plane for the front telescope strip field of view, supporting the stitching of multiple small-scale detectors, effectively achieving wide-swath detection with a single large-scale detector. This overcomes the bottleneck of telescope detection swath width being limited by detector specifications, while the image plane multiplication significantly reduces the telescope's along-track field of view requirements and design complexity. In practical applications, flexible configurations can be made according to detector specifications, requirements, and economic conditions. For example, for spatial dimension detection requirements of a 2000 yuan M-type detector, it can be achieved by stitching together two 1024 yuan M-1 type detectors, or four 512 yuan M-2 type detectors, or by flexibly combining one 1024 yuan M-1 type detector and two 512 yuan M-2 type detectors.
[0124] refer to Figure 14 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the image plane segmentation of a relay structure for a wide-spectrum, wide-swath hyperspectral imaging telescope, as described in Embodiment 2 of the present invention, and its application in configuring spectrometers with different dispersive capabilities for wide-spectrum, wide-swath detection. The relay structure segments a large image plane with a front telescope strip field of view, supporting spectrometers with multiple different dispersive capabilities. Wide-spectrum, high-spectral detection is achieved through spectral wavelength stitching. Spectrometer 1 is connected to the field of view optical path of slit 1 for fine dispersive spectroscopy. Spectrometer 2 docking slit 2 field of view optical path, fine spectral dispersion Spectrometer 3 docking slit 3 field of view optical path, fine spectral dispersion Spectrometer with 4 docking slits and 4 field-of-view optical paths for fine spectral dispersion. Spectrometer 5 docking slit 5 field of view optical path, fine spectral dispersion The spectrometer features a 6-slit docking system with a 6-field optical path for fine spectral dispersion. Where: 1) n, m, p, q are positive integers greater than 1, representing the spectral channel numbers of the system, for example... 1) Indicates the spectral channel n with center wavelength λ; 2) Generally, 1 to 2 spectral channels are connected between adjacent spectra of spectrometer 1 to spectrometer 6 to achieve the continuity of the system spectrum.
[0125] It should be noted that, Figure 13 , 14The invention demonstrates the implementation of detector stitching, spectrometer stitching, and structural parameters using a 6-channel field of view, but this invention is not limited thereto. The specific number and spatial relationship of the field of view optical path segmentation, image plane multiplication, aberration, and telecentric control components can be set according to actual needs. For example, in some implementations, there is only one optical path, which does not involve image plane multiplication, but this application is not limited thereto.
[0126] Table 3 shows the performance parameters of the telescope and the image plane control effect in the hyperspectral imaging system using the relay structure of this invention. In this embodiment, the basic parameters of the telescope are: F-number 3.0, focal length 708mm, and the field of view range of the six slits (slit 1 to slit 6) along the track is -0.3° to 2.6°. When the system is not equipped with the relay structure of this invention: the image distance is 5.561mm to 4.951mm; the telecentricity of the central field of view is 0.22° to 1.22°, with large fluctuations in telecentricity; the focal plane consistency is 1μm to 1.3μm, with obvious focal plane deviation. When the system is equipped with the relay structure of this invention, precise control of the image plane is achieved: the image distance is increased to 11.003mm to 16.066mm, the telecentricity of the central field of view is optimized to 0°, and the telecentricity consistency is significantly improved; the focal plane consistency is optimized to 0μm (completely consistent).

[0129] In summary, this invention proposes a telescope image plane multiplication relay structure for achieving wide-spectrum, wide-swath hyperspectral imaging. This structure allows the telescope to expand its field of view along the track direction while maintaining the field of view in the track-crossing direction. This makes it possible to use small-area array detectors in spectrometers, overcoming the bottleneck of limited detector chip size. Furthermore, by setting the relay structure mirrors as even-order aspherical or freeform surfaces and independently optimizing the segmented strip field of view, the telescope's image plane can be further expanded. This breaks through the technical bottleneck of traditional telescopes, which struggle to balance large rectangular image planes with low F-numbers and low distortion with high image quality. It pioneers a new path for the design and application of telescopes with large rectangular image planes and low F-numbers at telecentric imaging. It achieves several-fold improvements in image plane, telecentricity, and aberrations, providing an effective technical means for wide-spectrum, wide-swath, high spatial-hyperspectral-high radiometric resolution, and high sensitivity-high precision hyperspectral imaging. The solution provided by this invention has enabled the telescope optical relay structure of the hyperspectral imaging system to promote the leapfrog development of spaceborne hyperspectral imaging, strongly supported the successful development of the world's first spaceborne wide-spectrum and wide-swath hyperspectral camera, and significantly promoted the technological progress of hyperspectral remote sensing in fields such as environmental ecology, climate change, and resource agriculture.
