Description

Ccd video camera resolution measurement device and method based on triangle direction identification
Technical field
The invention belongs to the discrete light electric imaging system performance evaluating branch in the photoelectricity test field, the Morie fringe striped influence in the conventional resolution test can effectively be eliminated by this system, realizes the accurate measurement to ccd video camera resolution.Can be applicable to performance evaluating to all kinds of visible light ccd video cameras.
Background technology
Resolution is the most important performance index of television camera, has characterized the ability of television system transmission details, directly affects the subjective definition of image.According to the regulation of GB12338-90 " the universal television eye method of measurement of black and white ", resolution is defined as: to the image of the wide chequered with black and white lines of a frame, differentiate the ability of its black and white lines minimum widith.Max line numerical table in the every vertical frame dimension degree that identifies on the resolution chart commonly used shows, promptly uses tv line (TVL) to represent.The determined target plate of the general GB6996.1 of employing " transmission-type TV integration test figure " visual means interpretation ccd video camera resolution.This standard is provided with 10 striped group zones of corresponding 200 to 800 tv lines, has provided each striped group position and width of fringe; The rectangle target plate is of a size of 100 * 133mm 2Be provided with the striped group of corresponding each tv line in the middle, the corresponding relation of width of fringe and tv line is as follows:
Tv line (resolution line) Grizzly bar live width (mm)
200 0.5±0.02
250 0.40±0.02
300 0.33±0.02
350 0.29±0.01
400 0.25±0.01
450 0.22±0.01
500 0.200±0.009
550 0.180±0.009
600 0.170±0.008
650 0.154±0.007
700 0.143±0.006
750 0.133±0.005
800 0.125±0.004
Because the resolution target plate is designed to the grizzly bar pattern, its imaging meeting on discrete sampling image devices such as CCD produces the grating effect, and the Morie fringe of formation is understood the disturbace resolution interpretation, and then has influence on the resolution measurement result of ccd video camera.Therefore, objectively exist a kind of like this demand, i.e. design can be eliminated the special resolution test target plate of mole effect, to improve the resolution measurement precision of ccd video camera.
In infrared imaging system, the resolution capability that generally adopts minimum resolvable temperature difference (MRTD) to come characterization system.Tradition MRTD test adopts the temperature difference pattern of equally spaced four bar targets (depth-width ratio of every bar is 7: 1) formation as tested object.When the MRTD of the discrete infrared imaging system of test, the output image of observation cycle rectangle batten can show significantly owes sampling noiset, thereby has influence on the MRTD accuracy of test.
By discerning the correlative study discovery of simple space test pattern to influencing human eye, the focal plane imaging of cycle rectangle batten shows as obviously owes the spectrum confusion of sampling, and aperiodic, leg-of-mutton imaging observation was not influenced by the spectrum confusion of sampling owed of focal plane array, more can reflect the observation characteristic of real goal.Based on this, the people such as P.Bijl of Holland have proposed a kind of new method that can fully characterize infrared imaging system performance: delta direction is distinguished threshold method (Triangle Orientation Discrimination threshold), is called for short the TOD method.The method utilizes the equilateral triangle temperature difference target plate of different size, different contrast as test target, judge triangular orientation by the observer by infrared imaging system, obtain and the 75% correct relation curve of judging between probability corresponding threshold contrast and the triangle size.The TOD method has effectively been avoided the effect of sampling of owing in the infrared thermal imagery system testing, can be advantageously applied to the prediction that realistic objective obtains performance.The TOD method has received the very big concern in infrared imaging field since being suggested, be considered to a kind of new method that is applicable to following new infrared imaging system performance characterization.
In view of the TOD method has in infrared imaging system than successful Application, the present invention is applied to the triangle direction rule in the Performance Detection of visible light CCD imaging system.
