Definitions
- the present invention relates to an optical device according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Such an optical device is used when testing a scanning / receiving unit, as is specified in particular in the form of an infrared (IR) multi-line scanning device (line scanner) in a reconnaissance aircraft.
- IR infrared
- line scanner line scanner
- a rotating rotating mirror creates a line-shaped image of the terrain across the direction of flight on an IR detector line.
- the scanning / receiving unit on a turntable.
- Different scanning areas can be simulated by rotating the rotary table.
- a so-called blackbody radiator and line targets on a target wheel periodic, rectangular temperature distributions in the flight direction (ALT) and transverse to the flight direction (ACT) are generated in the focal plane of a collimator. These temperature distributions are imaged to infinity by the collimator, with plane waves of different directions and amplitudes propagating through the collimator housing. These flat waves are transferred from a deflecting mirror to the Rotating mirror of the scanning unit reflected. In its focal plane, the scanning unit generates an image of the target, which is read out by the detector line and a downstream electronics.
- the image of the line target usually does not completely hit the detector element. This has been remedied in this case by adjusting the scanning / receiving unit on the turntable or by adjusting the height of the target wheel.
- operator intervention is time consuming and undesirable.
- a parabolic mirror segment 12 is arranged in a housing 10 shielding against external rays, onto which a line target is projected via a folding mirror 14 arranged outside the optical beam path of the parabolic mirror segment 12.
- the stroke targets are in different positions of a target wheel 16 and they are predetermined by stroke patterns of different sizes.
- a servomotor 20 controls the target wheel 16 into the desired position.
- An IR radiation source 18 is located together with a helium / neon laser 22 on a displacement table 24.
- the laser 22 is used for focusing purposes and can be placed in the place of the radiation source 18 in order to focus the system.
- the target wheel 16, the IR radiation source 18, the servo motor 20 and the laser 22 are arranged in a housing 26 which is located in front of the entrance aperture 28 of the collimator.
- the parabolic mirror segment 12 makes plane waves from the diverging rays of the target image, ie it images the target image that has finally been removed to infinity.
- the plane waves meet a 45 ° deflecting mirror 30, which allows them to exit upwards through the exit aperture 32 of the collimator.
- the deflection mirror 30 can be pivoted about an axis 34, a stepping motor 36 making the adjustment.
- the adjustment possibility is ⁇ 5 °, the step increment being 1/1000 °.
- Various scanning areas can be simulated by rotating about an axis 42 shown in accordance with a rolling movement of the aircraft carrying the scanning / receiving unit.
- the drive and the detection of the assumed positions of the turntable 40 takes place via a servo motor / coding device 44.
- the shift table 24, the IR radiation source 18 and the servo motor 20 are connected to a controller 46.
- a controller 48 is also provided for the stepper motor 36.
- An amplifier 50 drives the servo motor / coding device 44.
- a calibration kit 52 is used to control the temperature of the IR radiation source 18. All of these elements 48, 50, 52 are connected via a bus 56 to a computer 58, which is operated via a keyboard and which allows results to be checked via a monitor.
- the collimator housing 10 sits on one against Vibration-protecting table 64.
- the turntable 40 sits on a stand 66, which in turn is fixed on the table 64. 2, a scanning receiving unit 68 is arranged on the carrier arm 38 of the turntable 40.
- the turntable 40 is adjustable on the table 64 together with the stand 66.
- FIGS. 4a and 4b how a correction can be carried out via the controllable deflecting mirror 30 in the event of a misalignment of a target line 70 with respect to a detector element 72.
- This correction is particularly necessary if a target line 70 of the smallest dimension (50 »m) is to be imaged on the smallest detector element (40» m) in the direction of flight.
- the ideal alignment shown in FIG. 4b is automatically achieved by detecting the detector output signal and adjusting the deflection mirror 30 in the sense of maximizing the detector output signal.
