Abstract

The application provides an automatic calibration drift method of an optoelectronic platform based on closed-loop feedback, which eliminates the drift of the optoelectronic platform under static conditions through real-time feedback control, collects the angle deviation closed loop in real time by using an angle encoder, and dynamically generates a drift compensation amount by using a PID controller. Through the closed-loop feedback and the continuous convergence judgment mechanism, the accuracy and reliability of the output drift compensation amount are ensured, and the automatic and real-time drift calibration is realized. The whole correction process does not need manual intervention and external reference benchmark, and is realized only by relying on the built-in sensor of the platform, so that it can work independently in any static environment, can automatically determine and output stable and reliable compensation values, the whole calibration process is completed online and in real time, the efficiency is high, and re-aiming is not needed, the limitation that the traditional method depends on manual operation can be effectively overcome, and the method is particularly suitable for the combat environment lacking auxiliary calibration facilities such as the field and unmanned equipment, and can significantly improve the autonomous combat efficiency and environmental adaptability of unmanned equipment.
