The invention discloses a cloud scene spectral
radiance simulation method based on space-based observation and a related device, and relates to the technical field of spectral
radiance simulation, and the method comprises the steps: obtaining
simulation parameters of a cloud-containing layer,
atmosphere, a position and a
wave band; calculating a cloud layer optical characteristic coefficient by using a
Mie scattering theory, and solving a cloud layer
refraction coefficient in combination with a Kramers-Kronig relationship; based on the
refraction coefficients of the
atmosphere and the cloud layer, the cloud layer surface
reflectivity is obtained through the Fresnel reflection law; and solving a
radiation transfer equation by adopting a two-flow approximation method, enabling the non-uniform
atmosphere to be equivalent to a plurality of uniform sub-
layers, introducing
reflectivity into the cloud sub-layer to represent the reflection contribution of the cloud sub-layer, and finally obtaining the spectral
radiance at the
zenith. According to the method, parameters are accurately set to adapt to various scenes, the calculation precision of optical parameters and
reflectivity is ensured by means of a physical mechanism, the calculation burden is remarkably reduced through two-
stream approximation, efficiency and precision are considered, and the problems that an existing method is time-consuming in calculation and large in burden on complex clouds, especially clouds with high optical thickness are effectively solved; and the spectral radiance of the cloud scene can be accurately simulated.
