Research on radiometric calibration for super wide-angle staring infrared imaging system

摘要

To perform radiometric calibration on super wide-angle staring infrared imaging system, the calibration experiment is carried out by using a standard blackbody source with a plate shape in laboratory, and the error analysis and data inversion are made based on the calibration results. Firstly, through analyzing the influencing factors including optical system, detector and signal processing circuit, the optical response model is established. Then, the radiometric calibration experiment is developed in the darkroom environment, and the error analysis is done from six aspects, which are the temperature and radiation instability of the black body, goniometer accuracy, angular resolution, the instability of detector output, data fitting error. Finally, according to the calibration results and the imaging characteristics of short-range airplane in the system, the infrared radiation intensity of aircraft target is calculated. The radiometric calibration and data inversion will benefit obtaining the target radiation characteristic during the system application, and can provide data reference for target detection, recognition, classification, so on.
