Abstract

During the exposure time, the charge transfer speed in the push-broom direction and the line-by-lines canning speed of the sensor are required to match each other strictly for a space-borne TDICCD push-broom camera. However, as attitude disturbance of satellite and vibration of camera are inevitable, it is impossible to eliminate the speed mismatch, which will make the signal of different targets overlay each other and result in a decline of image resolution. The effects of velocity mismatch will be visually observed and analyzed by simulating the degradation of image quality caused by the vibration of the optical axis, and it is significant for the evaluation of image quality and design of the image restoration algorithm. How to give a model in time domain and space domain during the imaging time is the problem needed to be solved firstly. As vibration information for simulation is usually given by a continuous curve, the pixels of original image matrix and sensor matrix are discrete, as a result, they cannot always match each other well. The effect of simulation will also be influenced by the discrete sampling in integration time. In conclusion, it is quite significant for improving simulation accuracy and efficiency to give an appropriate discrete modeling and simulation method. The paper analyses discretization schemes in time domain and space domain and presents a method to simulate the quality of image of the optical system in the vibration of the line of sight, which is based on the principle of TDICCD sensor. The gray value of pixels in sensor matrix is obtained by a weighted arithmetic, which solves the problem of pixels dismatch. The result which compared with the experiment of hardware test indicate that this simulation system performances well in accuracy and reliability.
