This invention provides a method and
system for on-
orbit polarization state correction of spaceborne
laser signals. First, the rotation direction and pulse parameters required for switching between left- and right-hand
circular polarization states are calibrated on the ground, from zero position to the default polarization state. During on-
orbit operation, the motor is driven back to zero or polarity switching is performed based on the ground calibration parameters to resolve the issue of unclear rotation direction caused by command errors. To address environmental drift and accumulated errors, the characteristic of a
laser corner bevel
prism to reverse the rotation direction of the returning light is utilized, combined with the physical properties of orthogonally
linearly polarized light from a
polarization beam splitter, to fine-tune the rotating motor and monitor the energy received by the
detector in real time. When the received energy reaches its
peak value, it is determined to be the optimal polarization state under the current environment, achieving closed-loop circularity optimization and performance correction. This method eliminates dependence on interstellar links and effectively solves the problems of on-
orbit parameter drift and multi-parameter
coupling debugging of open-loop motors.
