Abstract:
The optical design softwares ZEMAX and Python were used to realize the precision solution of optical path difference (OPD) for spatial gravitational wave telescope.The dynamic data exchange(DDE) closed-loop communication between ZEMAX and Python was realized. First, the Python software processed the data of telescope mirror after the finite element analysis, and transmitted the analysis results to the ZEMAX with DDE for tracing ray.Secondly, the ZEMAX software transferred the ray coordinate value to the Python software through the DDE. Lastly, the Python software calculated the OPD and wavefront changes caused by rigid body translation through the global coordinate system. Through simulating the deformation of the gravitational wave telescope with the temperature change of 1 mK, the OPD and wavefront variation of the spatial gravitational wave telescope was solved by means of ZEMAX software and Python software. The results show that the OPD precision reaches the order of 1e-13 meter, which can satisfy the requirements of telescope for pico-level stability.It is concluded that the method is feasible to calculate the OPD, and it provides a technical reference for the OPD analysis for the further mechanism design of the gravitational wave telescope.

2017, 38(6): 903-909. doi: 10.5768/JAO201738.0602001
Abstract:
Frame difference is one of the most widely used methods in moving object detection, for its advantages such as simple algorithm, less data to be processed, easy to be implemented and so on; however, frame difference method usually detects a moving object by using a specific threshold value measured under an invariable lightness condition, which limits its application in variable illumination situations. According to the above problem, the illumination-lightness-threshold table was created based on the lightness in the hue, saturation, lightness (HSL) color space to dynamically adjust the threshold value for different illumination conditions. After simulation, a detection system was implemented by field-programmable gate array (FPGA), and an experimental setup was built to verify the system. Experimental results show that, the recognition rate reaches 93% and 95% for a moving target with 3.0 m/s and 0.5 m/s velocity under 90 W/m2 illumination by the adaptive method, which is similar to the method with a large fixed threshold; under 0.59 W/m2 illumination, the recognition rate reaches 84% and 92% respectively for the two moving speeds above, which is similar to the fixed threshold method with a small threshold value.

2017, 38(6): 917-922. doi: 10.5768/JAO201738.0602003
Abstract:
Horizontal projection method, which is applied in calculating coordinates of aerial bursting points, has major problem in exploiting redundancy observations and in filtrating optimal results from multi-group solutions. Intersection algorithm based on least square, although able to solve the above problems, is influenced by initial value of a larger, iterative slow or even divergent.An intersection algorithm based upon total least square is proposed. In the process of iterative computation, weight matrix is adjusted continuously until a certain precision requirement is satisfied. This algorithm is validated by combining simulation data. Results show that proposed algorithm can obtain better results when initial value is larger, and it is not easy to diverge. It can get better results by 10 iterations or less, and precision can reach 0.3 m when distance from station to target is 1 500 m. This algorithm takes into account both observation error and model linearization error, which greatly reduces influence of initial value and improves convergence speed, and can accurately calculate three-dimensional coordinates of aerial bursting points.

Abstract:
In order to improve the accuracy of particle size inversion, eliminate the scattering spectrum noise, the Mie scattering spectrum data of different angles were filtered by one dimensional guided filter, and the characteristics of the guided filter were analyzed. In order to solve the problem of local noise caused by the guidance data, a wavelet-guided filtering algorithm was proposed. The results show that the filtering result is similar to that of the wavelet filter in the small scattering angle, but the filtering effect is better than the wavelet filter in the large scattering angle, and the pulse noise may be filtered out. The result of wavelet-guided joint filtering is the same as that of the guided filter at 15°, the filtering effect is better than that of the wavelet filter or the guided filter at 45° to 90°, and the local noise caused by the guidance data can be removed.

Abstract:
In order to extract relative data for quality control of wire harness terminals, an microscope image segmentation for wire harness terminals in chromaticity brightness space was proposed. This method divided the harness terminal by threshold method using the color distribution characteristic of the harness terminal micrograph.After analyzing the color distribution character, the microscopic image was first converted to brightness chromaticity space, and to insure the color homogenization within the image, the chromaticity vector was filtered. Then for the color channel, an optimal thresholding was determined for the two cases: the histogram with two peaks and one valley and the histogram with two peaks and two or more valleys. Finally, the mathematical morphology was performed on the binary image to produce the inner contour. The experimental results show that the circumference deviation of the inner diameter of the terminal is less than 0.1%, which indicates that the method can segment the harness terminal image completely and accurately.

Abstract:
In order to achieve the synchronously encryption of two images, reduce the transmission load and improve the ability of anti-plaintext attack, a double-image encryption algorithm was proposed by discrete fractional random transform and weighted pixel chaos scrambling. A new Tent map was designed by introducing two order parameters into the Tent mapping. Then the weighted histogram model was constructed according to the plain pixel value to generate the initial value of new tent map by combining with the 256 bits external key. Two sets of random sequences were outputted by using the initial value to iterate the fractional order Tent map to confuse the two pixel positions for obtaining two scrambling cipher. The sparse representation of two scrambling cipher was done by discrete wavelet transform (DWT) technology. The random circular matrix was defined according to the chaotic sequence, and the measurement matrix of two scrambling cipher was obtained by jointing sparse representation. The image fusion model was established based on random mask and modulation phase mask to take two measurement matrices into composite image. The composite image was diffused based on discrete fractional random transform to obtain the cipher. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has stronger ability to resist plaintext attack which NPCR、UACI of cipher is up to 99.83%, 34.57%, and higher user response in comparison with current multi-image encryption scheme. This algorithm has high encryption security which can effectively resist external attacks in the network and ensure the safe transmission of images.

Abstract:
The grating projection is usually used in traditional profilometry, and the non-sinusoidal of fringe and the limitation of fringe density can affect the accuracy of topography measurement. In order to realize the adjustability of high-density sinusoidal fringe projection, the parallel light interference projection is used to form bright and high contrast sinusoidal fringe, so that the sine distortion of fringes is avoided. In parallel wavefront modulation, the desired fringe frequency is obtained by adjusting the intersection angle of the two beams by phased array, and the adjustable fringe projection is realized, then the modulated dual frequency are applied to improve the phase unwrapping accuracy. The restoration of an object with maximum height of 35.80 mm under the condition of single frequency and dual frequency unwrapping was compared, and the relative error of the highest point recovery was 2.7% and 1.6%, respectively. The experimental results show that the method is effective and feasible, and has high precision.

Abstract:
Due to the special characteristics of the installation location for testing camera in the flight test of a certain type of airborne weapon, the field intersection area of camera is smaller, so as the trajectory and attitude motion parameters of the weapon delivery process cannot be calculated by using the conventional image measurement method.Aiming at this problem, a set of scheme for measuring airborne weapon delivery test image under conditions of close range and large dip angle was designed.Through designing the 90° bend lens and the 120° bend lens to change the camera mounting position, the problem of weapon delivery image acquisition was solved.By establishing the large dip angle multi-camera data-joint calculation model, the trajectory and attitude measurement of the weapon was realized.The simulation results show that using the maximum trajectory measurement error by this program is less than 2 cm, which can meet the flight test accuracy requirements.

2017, 38(6): 958-962. doi: 10.5768/JAO201738.0603003
Abstract:
In order to accurately measure the tilt amount of the secondary mirror in coaxial three reverse camera, a new method for measuring angle was proposed, which used the combination of a large-aperture interferometer and a theodolite. Taking the primary mirror as the measuring reference, while the included angle of two mirrors was small, the large-aperture interferemeter was used to measure the interference fringes of two mirror simultaneously. While the included angle was too large and the secondary mirror did not involve the interference fringes, a theodolite was added for autocollimation from the interferometer and secondary mirror to measure the included angle of two mirrors indirectly. Examples and analog computations show that for the secondary mirror tilt angle, its measuring error can be within 0.5″. The results indicate that the measurement method has the characteristics of strong universality and high precision, and can overcome the problem of insufficient measurement accuracy of traditional detection method.

Abstract:
In order to improve the correction accuracy of liquid crystal (LC) adaptive optical systems, a method based on turbulence model for measuring the interaction matrix (IM) was proposed. The wavefronts applied to the LC corrector are the linear combination of Karhunen-Loeve modes which are used to fit the measured aberrations and the coefficients of these modes obey the Kolmogorov atmospheric turbulence model.

Abstract:
The high-temperature dome produces intense infrared radiation, which forms the background noise on the detector receiving surface and seriously affects the image quality. To assess the performance degradation as a result of aerodynamic heating of the conformal dome flying at high speed, this paper established the multi-physics coupling model of conformal domes under aerodynamic heating environment, the dome thermal radiation emission and transmission model. Based on these models, the temperature field, the stress field, the strain field and the deformation field of conformal domes were obtained, and the imaging quality of high-speed aircraft affected by heat radiation of conformal dome was analyzed. Results show that as time goes on, the maximum irradiance of the detector is increasing. At 10 s, the minimum value of the thermal interference irradiance of the conformal shroud at 0° attack angle is 0.094 W/m2, and the maximum value is 0.108 W/m2. Compared with conformal domes under the same working condition, the maximum irradiance of the spherical dome at 10 s is about 12 times and 7 times of the maximum irradiance of ellipsoid and parabolic dome, respectively. Conditions thermal radiation interference of the conformal dome has less effect on the detection system comparing with spherical dome, and does not have a fatal effect on the detection performance of the detector.

Abstract:
Aiming at the influence of particle concentration on the laser transmission process in the atmospheric environment, taking the oil mist particles as the research object, the semi-physical simulation experiment of polarization laser transmission was carried out by using the inhomogeneous environment generated by the oil mist particles during the diffusion process. In the experiment, 532 nm lasers were used to study the polarization state variation of horizontal linearly polarized light, 45° linearly polarized light and left circularly polarized light during oil mist diffusion. The diffusion environment was quantitatively calibrated using the particle size analyzer. The experimental results show that the higher the concentration is, the greater the randomness of the change of polarization, and the polarization-maintaining ability of the circularly polarized light is better than that of the linearly polarized light. At the same concentration, the polarization-maintaining ability of 0°linearly polarized light is better than 45 ° linearly polarized light. In the case of extremely high concentrations, when the volume concentration is 2 mg/L or above, the linearly polarized light tends to coincide with the retention of circularly polarized light.

Finally, the influence of different laser energy on the image quality of multi-color CCD was studied by introducing the image quality evaluation factor. Experimental result indicates that the laser power density is an important influence factor of the laser interference effect. As the laser energy increases, the image quality of the multi-color CCD decreases.
