Segmented planar imaging detector for electro-optic reconnaissance (SPIDER) zoom

摘要

A device for combined-zoom interferometric imaging includes a number of first blades and second blades. Each of the first blades includes multiple first optical elements arranged in a first linear configuration for high-resolution interferometric imaging. Each of the second blades includes multiple second optical elements arranged in a second linear configuration for low-resolution interferometric imaging. Pairs of the first optical elements with different baseline lengths are coupled through a first array of optical waveguides to an optical processor. Pairs of the second optical elements with different baseline lengths are coupled through a second array of optical waveguides to the optical processor.
