Abstract

With the continuous occurrence of aircraft crash, it is very important to realize the detection of aerial targets on the spaced-based platform. Many countries have carried out some researches in this field, but there is still no good conclusion about the methods and systems for aerial target detection. Meanwhile, the actual cost of satellite experiments is very expensive, and it is impractical to test the detection system by launching satellites several times. Therefore, the system simulation model can be used as the basis for the design of detection system. In the simulation process, combined with the optical system parameters and detector indicators, the imaging relationship between the satellite platform, the turntable and the target are calculated, and various imaging modes such as scanning and gazing are obtained according to the specific parameters of the actual application. This simulation mode directly presents the actual satellite motion, camera imaging and target motion state. And such a simulation system greatly shortens the actual design time of the system in engineering applications. It more realistically inverts the actual operating state and can obtain the detection result without the actual satellite launch. And such a simulation system can flexibly change parameters according to the actual conditions, so it can not only be applied to aerial targets detection, but also play an important role in other fields.
