Abstract:

At present, most of the in-orbit and in-producing optical remote sensing satellites are equipped with off-axis remote sensing cameras. In order to ensure the view axis imaging at the nadir, the camera needs to pitch a certain angle to compensate for the off-axis angle. As a result, there will be an angle between the focal plane and the horizontal plane of nadir when imaging by push broom and it will lead to an inaccurate integral time. An accurate method of calculating integral time based on equivalent focal plane was proposed. This method constructed an equivalent focal plane parallel to the horizontal plane of nadir. By establishing a strict geometric model, the pixel size corresponding to the real time of electric charge moving was calculated and thus the accurate integral time was obtained. Simulation experiments show that this method can increase the calculation accuracy of the integral time by 1.2%, and it will improve the image quality in orbit.
