Description

Imaging detection device based on adaptive control of light flux and control method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of photoelectric detection, and particularly relates to an imaging detection device based on adaptive control of light flux amount and a control method thereof.
Background
With the rapid development of aerospace technology, people explore space more and more frequently, and a large number of space targets including normally-operated satellites and various space debris float in outer space, which poses serious threats to normally-operated spacecrafts and satellites. The space target monitoring mainly utilizes a telescope to carry out real-time observation, tracking and early warning on the space target, and effective detection of the target is the premise and guarantee of the space target monitoring. Due to the long observation distance, the target usually occupies dozens of pixels or even a few pixels on the imaging system, and is very weak. Meanwhile, the image has a large amount of noise interference, and the target signal-to-noise ratio is extremely low. Furthermore, during the day, due to the presence of a strong daylighting background, especially near the sun, the weak signal of the target is completely drowned in the daylighting background radiation. Therefore, daytime detection has always been a challenge.
Because the optical system cannot be absolutely ideal, the light receiving quantity of all positions of the target surface of the detector is often uneven, and the pan bottom effect of bright middle and dark edge of the image is easily caused. If located near a strong object such as the sun, the detector is easily saturated and a trapezoidal image with light near the sun and dark far from the sun may appear. Meanwhile, the detection system often has a lot of stray light and dirty points, which causes irregular brightness fluctuation of the image. These phenomena have great influence on the detection in the daytime, and it can be said that the problems of detector saturation and uneven light reception are one of the biggest obstacles to improving the detection capability in the daytime.
In order to improve daytime detectability, optical filtering techniques and digital image processing techniques are mainly used at present. The filtering technology is to perform narrow-band or polarization filtering on the natural light background by using a filter device such as a filter or a polarizing plate, thereby reducing the amount of light passing through the natural light background while maintaining the target energy. The technology can effectively weaken the background intensity and improve the target contrast, but cannot completely avoid the saturation of the detector and also cannot solve the problem of uneven light receiving of the detector. The digital image processing includes image filtering technology, image background prediction and subtraction technology, image multi-frame accumulation technology and the like. Although the image processing technologies can greatly improve the detection capability and solve the problem of uneven light reception to a certain extent, the method also has an inherent defect that the acquired image is always subjected to post-processing, the final result is limited by the information received by the front-end detector, and the digital image processing has a certain limit on the improvement of the detection capability if the detector is saturated. Moreover, since the image information contains the influence components of the optical system, the sun, and the stray light, the problem of light receiving unevenness cannot be completely overcome.
In summary, the invention discloses an imaging detection device based on adaptive control of light flux amount and a control method thereof, which can solve the problems of detector saturation and nonuniform light receiving in photoelectric detection under a strong background condition.

Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The invention discloses an imaging detection device based on adaptive control of light flux, which comprises a photoelectric detector and a light flux adaptive control window arranged at the front end of the photoelectric detector, wherein the output end of the photoelectric detector is electrically connected with the feedback signal input end of the light flux adaptive control window, and the light flux adaptive control window is used for adaptively controlling the light flux of each position of the light flux adaptive control window based on the gray scale distribution of an imaging image acquired by the photoelectric detector.
The invention can self-adaptively/automatically regulate and control the light intensity at the front end of the detector, avoid the problems of saturation and nonuniform light receiving of the detector, expand the dynamic range of target detection, make the light receiving quantity of the whole detector more uniform and improve the detection capability under the background conditions of low contrast and high brightness. In addition, frequent manual dimming operation can be avoided, the detection process is more automatic and convenient, and the working efficiency is improved.

The invention realizes the light flux adaptive control of the light flux adaptive control window through a polaroid and a liquid crystal spatial light modulator. As shown in FIG. 1, a light flux adaptive control window consisting of two orthogonal polarizing plates and a liquid crystal spatial light modulator is added at the front end of the photoelectric detector. Liquid crystal spatial light modulators are a class of devices that can load information onto a one-or two-dimensional optical data field to efficiently exploit the inherent speed, parallelism, and interconnection capabilities of light. Such devices may change the amplitude or intensity, phase, polarization, and wavelength of a spatially distributed light distribution or convert incoherent light into coherent light under the control of a time-varying electrical or other signal. The invention mainly applies the light intensity regulation function of the liquid crystal spatial light modulator. Liquid crystal spatial light modulators contain a number of individual cells that are spatially arranged in a one-dimensional or two-dimensional array.

(1) counting the gray distribution of the image, calculating an image segmentation threshold value by using an Otsu method between maximum classes, and carrying out binarization processing on the image;
(2) filtering stray noise of the image after binarization processing by adopting a binary morphological filter, counting a connected region by utilizing a binary image connected region marking method based on line segment scanning, and judging and separating a local saturated region;
(3) local saturated imaging is carried out on the photoelectric detector, and voltage is applied to pixels of the liquid crystal spatial light modulator, so that the gray level of an image in a saturated area of the processed photoelectric detector is consistent with the gray level of an image in a non-saturated area, and the uniform background of the image of the whole photoelectric detector is ensured;
(4) and imaging the overall saturation of the photoelectric detector, and applying the same voltage to the whole pixel of the liquid crystal spatial light modulator to keep the quantized median of the gray scale of the whole image of the processed photoelectric detector.
In specific implementation, the method for judging and separating the local saturated regions is that when only one connected region of the binary image exists, the connected region is judged to be the local saturation of the imaging of the detector, and the connected region is the local saturated region; otherwise, judging that the imaging of the detector is saturated or normal according to whether the image gray scale distribution is concentrated in a high-brightness range.
If the mean value of the gray level image with the quantization digit of 8 is more than or equal to 200, judging that the imaging global saturation of the detector is achieved, otherwise, judging that the imaging of the detector is normal.

The working principle of the adaptive control window for the amount of light passing can be explained by the electrically controlled birefringence effect of the liquid crystal. As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, a nematic N-type liquid crystal cell having one molecular axis aligned perpendicular to the surface is placed in a crossed polarizer P1And P2In the meantime. Since birefringence does not occur in the direction of the optical axis of the liquid crystal, which is the long axis direction of the nematic N-type liquid crystal molecules, when no electric field is applied, the polarization direction of linearly polarized light incident on the liquid crystal is not affected by the liquid crystal molecules, and thus the polarizing plate P cannot be transmitted2The liquid crystal cell is opaque. When an electric field exceeding a threshold value is applied between two poles of a liquid crystal box, the theory proves that the N-type liquid crystal keeps the internal energy to be minimum, and the molecular axis of the N-type liquid crystal tries to turn to the direction vertical to the electric field; and two substrates of the liquid crystal box are pretreated by a physical and chemical method, so that the molecular axis is aligned with P1And P2The transmission axes are all turned in a plane at an angle of 45 deg. to the direction of the electric field at an angle of inclination (denoted by phi), the magnitude of which depends on the electric field. The liquid crystal molecule axis direction, i.e. the optical axis direction, i.e. the tilt angle phi between the liquid crystal optical axis direction and the electric field direction, and the magnitude of phi changes with the electric field intensity, so the phase difference between the two birefringent light beams also changes. When linearly polarized light is incident on the liquid crystal, the linearly polarized light is decomposed into ordinary light (o light) and extraordinary light (e light) due to a birefringence effect. Assuming that the refractive index of o light is n when no electric field is appliedoE optical refractive index of neThen e optical refractive index after electric field application
Figure BDA0002297105860000061
If the thickness of the liquid crystal box is d and the wavelength of the incident light is lambda, the phase difference between o light and e light after passing through the liquid crystal box is
Figure BDA0002297105860000062
When the intensity of light transmitted without applying an electric field is I, the intensity of light transmitted after applying an electric field is I
Figure BDA0002297105860000063
Due to n'eBy relying on the electric field, the transmitted light intensity is also dependent on the voltage applied to the cell. When the voltage is zero, phi is 0, and I' is 0; when the voltage increases to δ ═ pi, I' has a maximum value.
By utilizing the effect, the control of the light flux of any position of the front imaging light beam of the photoelectric detector can be realized by controlling the writing light of the liquid crystal spatial light modulator. After the applied voltage value of the image captured by the photoelectric detector is calculated by a control method, the writing light fed back to the liquid crystal spatial light modulator is closed-loop, and the voltage related to the gray level of the filtered image is applied to each pixel (the relation between the voltage and the transmitted light intensity is calibrated in advance), so that the adaptive control of the light transmission quantity can be realized. The imaging before and after the adjustment is shown in fig. 5 and 6. Since the image feedback process is a well-known technology, it is not described herein in detail.
Finally, it is noted that the above-mentioned embodiments illustrate rather than limit the invention, and that, while the invention has been described with reference to preferred embodiments thereof, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
