[Study on Asymmetric Spatial Heterodyne Spectroscopy].

Restrictive relationship exists between spectral resolution, spectral range and number of pixels of traditional Spatial Heterodyne Spectroscopy (SHS). The main difference between Asymmetric Spatial Heterodyne Spectroscopy (ASHS) and SHS accelerates the space of one grating from the beamsplitter. It greatly increases spectral resolution while system parameters remain unchanged. First of all, this paper elaborates the fundamentals of the ASHS, the derived formulas of the system parameters and theoretical relationship between grating offset and the spectral resolution increases. As an important parameter of the ASHS, offset is restricted by the pixel number of short double side interferogram and the spectral resolution requirements. According to the experimental breadboard parameters of laboratory, the selection principle and the results of the offset are presented. In the case of the same device parameters, two types of theoretical performance parameters are calculated. The simulation is carried out. The results show that two of them have the same spectral range, but the ASHS has a higher spectral resolution. The relationship between resolution and offset increased consistent with theoretical calculation. Finally the ASHS breadboard is calibrated with the monochromatic light scanning method. The derived spectral range and resolution are in good agreement with the theoretical value.

[Data Processing Method of Asymmetric Spatial Heterodyne Interferogram for Wind Measurement].

By using doppler asymmetric spatial heterodyne spectroscopy and doppler effect, the wind speed can be achieved through detecting the interferogram of airglow in the upper atmosphere. This paper mainly analyses the data processing method of the interferogram and then derive the interferometer phase in order to get the wind speed. Comparing with the traditional spatial heterodyne spectroscopy, not only the noise and error of the system should be taken into consideration, but the window function that used to isolate the spectrum has a great influence during the data processing. Then the effect of window type and window width on phase difference of interferogram and the wind error curve are simulated through software. On basis of this the wind error curve under the noise of system and flat field factor are simulated by choosing appropriate window function. The window function simulation indicates that although the joining of window leads to a distortion of the interferogam and phase, the wind speed error can be less than 0.5% with Hanning window in the appropriate optical path difference. The noise of the system simulation indicates that the wind speed error increases with the noise, so it is necessary to control the system noise and preprocess the sampling data. The research on data processing method has great theoretical significance and practical value for designing the system parameter and improving the precision of spatial heterodyne wind detection.

[Radiometric calibration of LCTF-based multispectral area CCD camera].

Multispectral area CCD camera based on liquid crystal tunable filter (LCTF) is a new spectral imaging system, which could record image of one wavelength on the area CCD by utilizing electrically controlled birefringence of liquid-crystal and interference principle of polarized light. Because of the special working principle of LCTF and frame transfer area CCD, the existing radiometric calibration method can not meet the precision need of remote sensing application if it is used for LCTF-camera. An improved radiometric calibration method is proposed, in which the camera performance test and calibration experiment are carried out relying on the devices of integrating sphere and standard detector, and the absolute calibration coefficient is calculated via correcting frame transfer smear and improving data process algorithm. Then the validity of the laboratory calibration coefficient is checked by a field validation experiment. Experimental result indicates that the calibration coefficient is valid, and the radiation information on the ground could be accurately inverted from the calibrated image data. With the resolution of radiometric calibration of LCTF-camera and the improvement of calibration precision, the application field of the image data acquired by the camera would be extended effectively.

[Inversion of the lake total nitrogen concentration by multiple regression kriging model based on hyperspectral data of HJ-1A].

The content of total nitrogen in the waters is an important index to measure lake water quality, and the technique of remote sensing plays a large role in quantitatively monitoring the dynamic change and timely grasping the status of lake pollution. Taking Chaohu as an example, quantitative inversion models of total nitrogen were established by multivariable regression Kriging under analyzing of an correlation between total nitrogen and chlorophyll-a or suspended solids by HIS hyperspectral remote sensing data of HJ-1A satellite. The result shows that the correlation of 0.76 was discovered between total nitrogen and the multiple combination with band 72, band 79 and band 97, while the correlation could be increased to 0.83 by applying combined model of multiple linear regression and ordinary Kriging. The optimization of the residuals of the conventional regression model can improve the accuracy of the inversion effectively. These results also provide useful exploration for further establishing a common model of quantitative inversion of lake total nitrogen concentration.

[Study on calibration method of spatial heterodyne spectrometer].

Spatial heterodyne spectroscopy (SHS) is a novel method for hyperspectral analysis, but the calibration methods have not been thoroughly studied. The present paper gives some basic theories of SHS, and investigates the laboratory calibration methods, including spectral calibration and radiometric calibration. According to emission lines and the relation between detector size and system bandwidth, we designed the spectral calibration plan for SHS, which uses tunable laser and halogen lamp. Experiments show that the actual spectral range and resolution of our instrument is the same as it was designed, and the spectral shift is less by stability testing. For radiometric calibration, we measured the system's stability by using integrating sphere, and its responses were also calibrated by using standard lamp and diffuser. The experimental results, after validation, proved that our method can be used for SHS calibration. This is a fundamental work for quantified retrieval.

[Data processing for interferogram of spatial heterodyne spectrometer].

Spatial heterodyne spectroscopy (SHS) is a new spectroscopic technique which can achieve high spectral resolution. The basic concepts of spatial heterodyne spectrometer was described. A method of data processing for interferogram of spatial heterodyne spectrometer was presented based on its characteristics. First order difference was performed for eliminating the baseline of interferogram. The triangular function was chosen as apodization function. The process of phase correction for Fourier transform spectrum is described. The wavelength calibration curve of SHS experimental system was obtained by measuring sodium light double line and mercury light double line. The spectral inversion accuracy of spatial heterodyne spectrometer can be effectively improved by use of this method.

[Accuracy analysis on a sort of polarized measurement in remote sensing].

Angular error of polarizer in polarimetric measurement is an important element affecting the measurement accuracy of degree of polarization, so angular error of polarizer should be considered in remote sensing of high-accuracy quantitative polarization. Simulation study shows that polarimetric measurement is relative to the polarization state (polarization angle or degree of polarization) of incident light in a specific measurement system of polarization. In the measurement mode of polarizer setting (0 degree, 60 degrees, 120 degrees), there is a maximum error of polarization measurement at the 0 degree or 180 degrees polarization angle while a minimum error at the 30 degrees, 90 degrees and 150 degrees polarization angle; In the measurement mode of polarizer setting (0 degree, 45 degrees, 90 degrees), there is a maximum error of polarization measurement near the 45 degrees polarization angle while a minimum error at the 0 degree, 90 degrees and 135 degrees polarization angle. The larger degree of polarization of incident light often contributes to the bigger measurement error except for incident light with several polarization angles. So the polarization measurement may be evaluated by the average degree of polarizatioo of linearly polarized light introduced in this paper. It is indicated that the measurement mode of polarizer setting (0 degree, 60 degrees, 120 degrees) is better than that of (0 degree, 45 degrees, 90 degrees).

[Design of hyperspectral imaging system based on LCTF].

A new compact lightweight imaging system for hyperspectral imaging is described. The system can be thought of as the substitute for traditional mechanical filter-wheel sensor. The system is based on different techniques. It uses an electronic controlled LCTF(liquid crystal tunable filter) which provided rapid and vibrationless selection of any wavelength in the visible to IR range. The imaging system consisted of an optic lens, a CRI VariSpec LCTF and a Dalsa 1M30 camera. First the outline of this system setup is presented, then the optics designed is introduced, next the working principle of LCTF is described in details. A field experiment with the imaging system loaded on an airship was carried out and collected hyperspectral solid image. The images obtained had higher spectral and spatial resolution. Some parts of the 540-600 nm components of the 16-band image cube were also shown. Finally, the data acquired were rough processed to get reflection spectrum(from 420 to 720 nm) of three targets. It is concluded that the experiment has proved that the imaging system is effective in obtaining hyperspectral data. The image captured by the system can be applied to spectral estimation, spectra based classification and spectral based analysis.
