Comprehensive Reconnaissance System for Photoelectric Radar

A system for photoelectric radar comprehensive reconnaissance, comprising an electronics cabin, a cantilever and a load cabin;

• the load cabin being installed on a side wall of the electronics cabin through the cantilever, and the load cabin is electrically coupled to the electronic cabin;
• the load cabin is provided with a visible light camera, an infrared thermal imager, a laser rangefinder and a radar therein;
• the electronics cabin is provided with an image processor, a data processor, an image fusion processor, an image compression processor and a platform control and driver processor therein;
• when the system is in a radar multi-source reconnaissance mode,
• the visible light camera, performs image sampling, obtains a visible light image signal, and sends the visible light image signal to the image processor;
• the infrared thermal imager, performs image sampling, obtain an infrared image signal, and sends the infrared image signal to the image processor;
• the laser rangefinder, measures a distance value between the load cabin and a target, and sends the distance value to the image processor;
• the image processor, receives the distance value from the laser rangefinder, receives the visible light image signal from the visible light camera, receives the infrared image signal from the infrared thermal imager, and performs geometric correction on the visible light image signal and the infrared image signal to generate a corrected optical image, and sends the corrected optical image to the image fusion processor;
• the radar, performs echo data sampling and sends echo data to the data processor;
• the data processor, receives the echo data from the radar, converts the echo data into a radar image, performs geometric correction on the radar image to generate a corrected radar image, and sends the corrected radar image to the image fusion processor, and obtains a load cabin adjustment angle according to the corrected radar image, and sends the load cabin adjustment angle to the platform drive processor;
• the platform control and drive processor, receives the load cabin adjustment angle from the data processor, and drives, according to the load cabin adjustment angle, the cantilever to rotate the load cabin to aim at the target;
• the image fusion processor, receives the corrected optical image from the image processor, receives the corrected radar image from the data processor, performs image registration and fusion processing on the corrected optical image and the corrected radar image in sequence, obtain an original image, and send the original image to the image compression processor;
• the image compression processor, receives the original image from the image fusion processor, compresses the original image, generates a compressed image, and downloads the compressed image to an external ground station.
