The proposed approach combines spectral and spatial information based on the fusion of features extracted from panchromatic( PAN) and multispectral( MS) images using sparse autoencoder and its deep version. There are three steps in the proposed method,the first one is to extract spatial information of PAN image,and the second one is to describe spectral information of MS image. Finally,in the third step,the features obtained from PAN and MS images are concatenated directly as a simple fusion feature. The classification is performed using the support vector machine( SVM) and the experiments carried out on two datasets with very high spatial resolution. MS and PAN images from WorldView-2 satellite indicate that the classifier provides an efficient solution and demonstrate that the fusion of the features extracted by deep learning techniques from PAN and MS images performs better than that when these techniques are used separately. In addition,this framework shows that deep learning models can extract and fuse spatial and spectral information greatly,and have huge potential to achieve higher accuracy for classification of multispectral and panchromatic images.展开更多

Despite advancements in optical detection capabilities through imaging systems, including spectral, polarization, and infrared technologies, there is still a lack of effective real-time method for accurately detecting small-size and high-efficient camouflaged people in complex real-world scenes. Here, this study proposes a snapshot multispectral image-based camouflaged detection model, multispectral YOLO(MS-YOLO), which utilizes the SPD-Conv and Sim AM modules to effectively represent targets and suppress background interference by exploiting the spatial-spectral target information. Besides, the study constructs the first real-shot multispectral camouflaged people dataset(MSCPD), which encompasses diverse scenes, target scales, and attitudes. To minimize information redundancy, MS-YOLO selects an optimal subset of 12 bands with strong feature representation and minimal inter-band correlation as input. Through experiments on the MSCPD, MS-YOLO achieves a mean Average Precision of 94.31% and real-time detection at 65 frames per second, which confirms the effectiveness and efficiency of our method in detecting camouflaged people in various typical desert and forest scenes. Our approach offers valuable support to improve the perception capabilities of unmanned aerial vehicles in detecting enemy forces and rescuing personnel in battlefield.展开更多

For better visual perception of these images, it is essential to operate series of pre-processing and elementary corrections and then operate a series of main processing steps for more precise analysis on the images. There are several approaches for processing which are depended on the type of remote sensing images. The discussed approach in this article, i.e. image fusion, is the use of natural colors of an optical image for adding color to a grayscale satellite image which gives us the ability for better observation of the HR image of OLI sensor of Landsat-8. This process with emphasis on details of fusion technique has previously been performed;however, we are going to apply the concept of the interpolation process. In fact, we see many important software tools such as ENVI and ERDAS as the most famous remote sensing image processing tools have only classical interpolation techniques (such as bi-linear (BL) and bi-cubic/cubic convolution (CC)). Therefore, ENVI- and ERDAS-based researches in image fusion area and even other fusion researches often don’t use new and better interpolators and are mainly concentrated on the fusion algorithm’s details for achieving a better quality, so we only focus on the interpolation impact on fusion quality in Landsat-8 multispectral images. The important feature of this approach is to use a statistical, adaptive, and edge-guided interpolation method for improving the color quality in the images in practice. Numerical simulations show selecting the suitable interpolation techniques in MRF-based images creates better quality than the classical interpolators.展开更多

However,these images are taken at different points in time such that eyeball movementscan cause misalignment between consecutive images. The multispectral imagesequence reveals important information in the form of retinal and choroidal bloodvessel maps, which can help ophthalmologists to analyze the morphology of theseblood vessels in detail. This in turn can lead to a high diagnostic accuracy of several diseases. In this paper, we propose a novel semi-supervised end-to-end deeplearning framework called “Adversarial Segmentation and Registration Nets”(ASRNet) for the simultaneous estimation of the blood vessel segmentation andthe registration of multispectral images via an adversarial learning process. ASRNet consists of two subnetworks: (i) A segmentation module S that fulfills theblood vessel segmentation task, and (ii) A registration module R that estimatesthe spatial correspondence of an image pair. Based on the segmention-drivenregistration network, we train the segmentation network using a semi-supervisedadversarial learning strategy. Our experimental results show that the proposedASRNet can achieve state-of-the-art accuracy in segmentation and registrationtasks performed with real MSI datasets.展开更多

A low cost multimode multispectral microscope using a camera and a set of quasi-monochromatic Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) ranging from ultraviolet to near-infrared wavelengths as illumination sources was constructed. But the use of a large spectral band provided by non-monochromatic sources induces variation of focal plan of the imager due to chromatic aberration which rises up the diffraction effects and blurs the images causing shadow around them. It results in discrepancies between standard spectra and extracted spectra with microscope. So we need to calibrate that instrument to be a standard one. We proceed with two types of images comparison to choose the reference wavelength for image acquisition where diffraction effect is more reduced. At each wavelength chosen as a reference, one image is well contrasted. First, we compare the thirteen well contrasted images to identify that presenting more reduced shadow. In second time, we determine the mean of the shadow size over the images from each set. The correction of the discrepancies required measurements on filters using a standard spectrometer and the microscope in transmission mode and reflection mode. To evaluate the capacity of our device to transmit information in frequency domain, its modulation transfer function is evaluated. Multivariate analysis is used to test its capacity to recognize properties of well-known sample. The wavelength 700 nm was chosen to be the reference for the image acquisition, because at this wavelength the images are well contrasted. The measurement made on the filters suggested correction coefficients in transmission mode and reflection mode. The experimental instrument recognized the microsphere’s properties and led to the extraction of the standard transmittance and reflectance spectra. Therefore, this microscope is used as a conventional instrument.展开更多

The Cons...Multispectral time delay and integration charge coupled device （TDICCD） image compression requires a low- complexity encoder because it is usually completed on board where the energy and memory are limited. The Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems （CCSDS） has proposed an image data compression （CCSDS-IDC） algorithm which is so far most widely implemented in hardware. However, it cannot reduce spectral redundancy in mukispectral images. In this paper, we propose a low-complexity improved CCSDS-IDC （ICCSDS-IDC）-based distributed source coding （DSC） scheme for multispectral TDICCD image consisting of a few bands. Our scheme is based on an ICCSDS-IDC approach that uses a bit plane extractor to parse the differences in the original image and its wavelet transformed coefficient. The output of bit plane extractor will be encoded by a first order entropy coder. Low-density parity-check-based Slepian-Wolf （SW） coder is adopted to implement the DSC strategy. Experimental results on space multispectral TDICCD images show that the proposed scheme significantly outperforms the CCSDS-IDC-based coder in each band.展开更多

Many DSC systems in the literature use feedback channel （FC） to control rate at the decoder, which limits the application of DSC. Upon an analysis of the image data, a rate control approach is proposed to avoid FC. Low-complexity motion compensation is applied first to estimate side information at the encoder. Using a polynomial fitting method, a new mathematical model is then derived to estimate rate based on the correlation between the source and side information. The experimental results show that our estimated rate is a good approximation to the actual rate required by FC while incurring a little bit-rate overhead. Our compression scheme performs comparable with the FC based DSC system and outperforms JPEG2000 significantly.展开更多

Currently, the images are compressed losslessly using JPEG, which can achieve only two to three times of compression. We present a comparative study of four approaches to compressing multispectral Mastcam images. The first approach is to divide the nine bands into three groups with each group having three bands. Since the multispectral bands have strong correlation, we treat the three groups of images as video frames. We call this approach the Video approach. The second approach is to compress each group separately and we call it the split band (SB) approach. The third one is to apply a two-step approach in which the first step uses principal component analysis (PCA) to compress a nine-band image cube to six bands and a second step compresses the six PCA bands using conventional codecs. The fourth one is to apply PCA only. In addition, we also present subjective and objective assessment results for compressing RGB images because RGB images have been used for stereo and disparity map generation. Five well-known compression codecs, including JPEG, JPEG-2000 (J2K), X264, X265, and Daala in the literature, have been applied and compared in each approach. The performance of different algorithms was assessed using four well-known performance metrics. Two are conventional and another two are known to have good correlation with human perception. Extensive experiments using actual Mastcam images have been performed to demonstrate the various approaches. We observed that perceptually lossless compression can be achieved at 10:1 compression ratio. In particular, the performance gain of the SB approach with Daala is at least 5 dBs in terms peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) at 10:1 compression ratio over that of JPEG. Subjective comparisons also corroborated with the objective metrics in that perceptually lossless compression can be achieved even at 20 to 1 compression.展开更多

These procedures implement automatic image segmentation in order to classify cell types as cancerous or noncancerous. The authors have developed a new approach aiming to detect colon cancer cells derived from the ＂Snake＂ method but using a progressive division of the dimensions of the image to achieve rapid segmentation. The aim of the present paper was to classify different cancerous cell types based on nine morphological parameters and on probabilistic neural network. Three types of cells were used to assess the efficiency of our classifications models, including BH （Benign Hyperplasia）, IN （Intraepithelial Neoplasia） that is a precursor state for cancer, and Ca （Carcinoma） that corresponds to abnormal tissue proliferation （cancer）. Results showed that among the nine parameters used to classify cells, only three morphologic parameters （area, Xor convex and solidity） were found to be effective in distinguishing the three types of cells. In addition, classification of unknown cells was possible using this method.展开更多

文摘Multispectral imaging plays a crucial role in simultaneously capturing detailed spatial and spectral information,which is fundamental for understanding complex phenomena across various domains.Traditional systems face significant challenges,such as large volume,static function,and limited wavelength selectivity.Here,we propose an innovative dynamic reflective multispectral imaging system via a thermally responsive cholesteric liquid crystal based planar lens.By employing advanced photoalignment technology,the phase distribution of a lens is imprinted to the liquid crystal director.The reflection band is reversibly tuned from 450 nm to 750 nm by thermally controlling the helical pitch of the cholesteric liquid crystal,allowing selectively capturing images in different colors.This capability increases imaging versatility,showing great potential in precision agriculture for assessing crop health,noninvasive diagnostics in healthcare,and advanced remote sensing for environmental monitoring.

文摘Facing the very high-resolution( VHR) image classification problem,a feature extraction and fusion framework is presented for VHR panchromatic and multispectral image classification based on deep learning techniques. The proposed approach combines spectral and spatial information based on the fusion of features extracted from panchromatic( PAN) and multispectral( MS) images using sparse autoencoder and its deep version. There are three steps in the proposed method,the first one is to extract spatial information of PAN image,and the second one is to describe spectral information of MS image. Finally,in the third step,the features obtained from PAN and MS images are concatenated directly as a simple fusion feature. The classification is performed using the support vector machine( SVM) and the experiments carried out on two datasets with very high spatial resolution. MS and PAN images from WorldView-2 satellite indicate that the classifier provides an efficient solution and demonstrate that the fusion of the features extracted by deep learning techniques from PAN and MS images performs better than that when these techniques are used separately. In addition,this framework shows that deep learning models can extract and fuse spatial and spectral information greatly,and have huge potential to achieve higher accuracy for classification of multispectral and panchromatic images.

文摘A novel fusion method of multispectral image and panchromatic image based on nonsubsampled contourlet transform（NSCT） and non-negative matrix factorization（NMF） is presented,the aim of which is to preserve both spectral and spatial information simultaneously in fused image.NMF is a matrix factorization method,which can extract the local feature by choosing suitable dimension of the feature subspace.Firstly the multispectral image was represented in intensity hue saturation（IHS） system.Then the I component and panchromatic image were decomposed by NSCT.Next we used NMF to learn the feature of both multispectral and panchromatic images＇ low-frequency subbands,and the selection principle of the other coefficients was absolute maximum criterion.Finally the new coefficients were reconstructed to get the fused image.Experiments are carried out and the results are compared with some other methods,which show that the new method performs better in improving the spatial resolution and preserving the feature information than the other existing relative methods.

文摘Camouflaged people are extremely expert in actively concealing themselves by effectively utilizing cover and the surrounding environment. Despite advancements in optical detection capabilities through imaging systems, including spectral, polarization, and infrared technologies, there is still a lack of effective real-time method for accurately detecting small-size and high-efficient camouflaged people in complex real-world scenes. Here, this study proposes a snapshot multispectral image-based camouflaged detection model, multispectral YOLO(MS-YOLO), which utilizes the SPD-Conv and Sim AM modules to effectively represent targets and suppress background interference by exploiting the spatial-spectral target information. Besides, the study constructs the first real-shot multispectral camouflaged people dataset(MSCPD), which encompasses diverse scenes, target scales, and attitudes. To minimize information redundancy, MS-YOLO selects an optimal subset of 12 bands with strong feature representation and minimal inter-band correlation as input. Through experiments on the MSCPD, MS-YOLO achieves a mean Average Precision of 94.31% and real-time detection at 65 frames per second, which confirms the effectiveness and efficiency of our method in detecting camouflaged people in various typical desert and forest scenes. Our approach offers valuable support to improve the perception capabilities of unmanned aerial vehicles in detecting enemy forces and rescuing personnel in battlefield.
文摘In interpretation of remote sensing images, it is possible that some images which are supplied by different sensors become incomprehensible. For better visual perception of these images, it is essential to operate series of pre-processing and elementary corrections and then operate a series of main processing steps for more precise analysis on the images. There are several approaches for processing which are depended on the type of remote sensing images. The discussed approach in this article, i.e. image fusion, is the use of natural colors of an optical image for adding color to a grayscale satellite image which gives us the ability for better observation of the HR image of OLI sensor of Landsat-8. This process with emphasis on details of fusion technique has previously been performed;however, we are going to apply the concept of the interpolation process. In fact, we see many important software tools such as ENVI and ERDAS as the most famous remote sensing image processing tools have only classical interpolation techniques (such as bi-linear (BL) and bi-cubic/cubic convolution (CC)). Therefore, ENVI- and ERDAS-based researches in image fusion area and even other fusion researches often don’t use new and better interpolators and are mainly concentrated on the fusion algorithm’s details for achieving a better quality, so we only focus on the interpolation impact on fusion quality in Landsat-8 multispectral images. The important feature of this approach is to use a statistical, adaptive, and edge-guided interpolation method for improving the color quality in the images in practice. Numerical simulations show selecting the suitable interpolation techniques in MRF-based images creates better quality than the classical interpolators.

文摘Multispectral imaging (MSI) technique is often used to capture imagesof the fundus by illuminating it with different wavelengths of light. However,these images are taken at different points in time such that eyeball movementscan cause misalignment between consecutive images. The multispectral imagesequence reveals important information in the form of retinal and choroidal bloodvessel maps, which can help ophthalmologists to analyze the morphology of theseblood vessels in detail. This in turn can lead to a high diagnostic accuracy of several diseases. In this paper, we propose a novel semi-supervised end-to-end deeplearning framework called “Adversarial Segmentation and Registration Nets”(ASRNet) for the simultaneous estimation of the blood vessel segmentation andthe registration of multispectral images via an adversarial learning process. ASRNet consists of two subnetworks: (i) A segmentation module S that fulfills theblood vessel segmentation task, and (ii) A registration module R that estimatesthe spatial correspondence of an image pair. Based on the segmention-drivenregistration network, we train the segmentation network using a semi-supervisedadversarial learning strategy. Our experimental results show that the proposedASRNet can achieve state-of-the-art accuracy in segmentation and registrationtasks performed with real MSI datasets.

文摘The multispectral remote sensing image(MS-RSI)is degraded existing multi-spectral camera due to various hardware limitations.In this paper,we propose a novel core tensor dictionary learning approach with the robust modified Gaussian mixture model for MS-RSI restoration.First,the multispectral patch is modeled by three-order tensor and high-order singular value decomposition is applied to the tensor.Then the task of MS-RSI restoration is formulated as a minimum sparse core tensor estimation problem.To improve the accuracy of core tensor coding,the core tensor estimation based on the robust modified Gaussian mixture model is introduced into the proposed model by exploiting the sparse distribution prior in image.When applied to MS-RSI restoration,our experimental results have shown that the proposed algorithm can better reconstruct the sharpness of the image textures and can outperform several existing state-of-the-art multispectral image restoration methods in both subjective image quality and visual perception.
文摘Feature extraction is the most critical step in classification of multispectral image.The classification accuracy is mainly influenced by the feature sets that are selected to classify the image.In the past,handcrafted feature sets are used which are not adaptive for different image domains.To overcome this,an evolu-tionary learning method is developed to automatically learn the spatial-spectral features for classification.A modified Firefly Algorithm(FA)which achieves maximum classification accuracy with reduced size of feature set is proposed to gain the interest of feature selection for this purpose.For extracting the most effi-cient features from the data set,we have used 3-D discrete wavelet transform which decompose the multispectral image in all three dimensions.For selecting spatial and spectral features we have studied three different approaches namely overlapping window(OW-3DFS),non-overlapping window(NW-3DFS)adaptive window cube(AW-3DFS)and Pixel based technique.Fivefold Multiclass Support Vector Machine(MSVM)is used for classification purpose.Experiments con-ducted on Madurai LISS IV multispectral image exploited that the adaptive win-dow approach is used to increase the classification accuracy.
文摘Multispectral microscopy enables information enhancement in the study of specimens because of the large spectral band used in this technique. A low cost multimode multispectral microscope using a camera and a set of quasi-monochromatic Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) ranging from ultraviolet to near-infrared wavelengths as illumination sources was constructed. But the use of a large spectral band provided by non-monochromatic sources induces variation of focal plan of the imager due to chromatic aberration which rises up the diffraction effects and blurs the images causing shadow around them. It results in discrepancies between standard spectra and extracted spectra with microscope. So we need to calibrate that instrument to be a standard one. We proceed with two types of images comparison to choose the reference wavelength for image acquisition where diffraction effect is more reduced. At each wavelength chosen as a reference, one image is well contrasted. First, we compare the thirteen well contrasted images to identify that presenting more reduced shadow. In second time, we determine the mean of the shadow size over the images from each set. The correction of the discrepancies required measurements on filters using a standard spectrometer and the microscope in transmission mode and reflection mode. To evaluate the capacity of our device to transmit information in frequency domain, its modulation transfer function is evaluated. Multivariate analysis is used to test its capacity to recognize properties of well-known sample. The wavelength 700 nm was chosen to be the reference for the image acquisition, because at this wavelength the images are well contrasted. The measurement made on the filters suggested correction coefficients in transmission mode and reflection mode. The experimental instrument recognized the microsphere’s properties and led to the extraction of the standard transmittance and reflectance spectra. Therefore, this microscope is used as a conventional instrument.

文摘Information on Land Use and Land Cover Map(LULCM)is essential for environment and socioeconomic applications.Such maps are generally derived from Multispectral Remote Sensing Images(MRSI)via classification.The classification process can be described as information flow from images to maps through a trained classifier.Characterizing the information flow is essential for understanding the classification mechanism,providing solutions that address such theoretical issues as“what is the maximum number of classes that can be classified from a given MRSI?”and“how much information gain can be obtained?”Consequently,two interesting questions naturally arise,i.e.(i)How can we characterize the information flow?and(ii)What is the mathematical form of the information flow?To answer these two questions,this study first hypothesizes that thermodynamic entropy is the appropriate measure of information for both MRSI and LULCM.This hypothesis is then supported by kinetic-theory-based experiments.Thereafter,upon such an entropy,a generalized Jarzynski equation is formulated to mathematically model the information flow,which contains such parameters as thermodynamic entropy of MRSI,thermodynamic entropy of LULCM,weighted F1-score(classification accuracy),and total number of classes.This generalized Jarzynski equation has been successfully validated by hypothesis-driven experiments where 694 Sentinel-2 images are classified into 10 classes by four classical classifiers.This study provides a way for linking thermodynamic laws and concepts to the characterization and understanding of information flow in land cover classification,opening a new door for constructing domain knowledge.

文摘Multispectral time delay and integration charge coupled device （TDICCD） image compression requires a low- complexity encoder because it is usually completed on board where the energy and memory are limited. The Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems （CCSDS） has proposed an image data compression （CCSDS-IDC） algorithm which is so far most widely implemented in hardware. However, it cannot reduce spectral redundancy in mukispectral images. In this paper, we propose a low-complexity improved CCSDS-IDC （ICCSDS-IDC）-based distributed source coding （DSC） scheme for multispectral TDICCD image consisting of a few bands. Our scheme is based on an ICCSDS-IDC approach that uses a bit plane extractor to parse the differences in the original image and its wavelet transformed coefficient. The output of bit plane extractor will be encoded by a first order entropy coder. Low-density parity-check-based Slepian-Wolf （SW） coder is adopted to implement the DSC strategy. Experimental results on space multispectral TDICCD images show that the proposed scheme significantly outperforms the CCSDS-IDC-based coder in each band.

文摘An extreme ultraviolet solar corona multispectral imager can allow direct observation of high temperature coronal plasma,which is related to solar flares,coronal mass ejections and other significant coronal activities.This manuscript proposes a novel end-to-end computational design method for an extreme ultraviolet(EUV)solar corona multispectral imager operating at wavelengths near 100 nm,including a stray light suppression design and computational image recovery.To suppress the strong stray light from the solar disk,an outer opto-mechanical structure is designed to protect the imaging component of the system.Considering the low reflectivity(less than 70%)and strong-scattering(roughness)of existing extreme ultraviolet optical elements,the imaging component comprises only a primary mirror and a curved grating.A Lyot aperture is used to further suppress any residual stray light.Finally,a deep learning computational imaging method is used to correct the individual multi-wavelength images from the original recorded multi-slit data.In results and data,this can achieve a far-field angular resolution below 7",and spectral resolution below 0.05 nm.The field of view is±3 R_(☉)along the multi-slit moving direction,where R☉represents the radius of the solar disk.The ratio of the corona's stray light intensity to the solar center's irradiation intensity is less than 10-6 at the circle of 1.3 R_(☉).

文摘Distributed source coding （DSC） is applied to interferential multispectral image compression owing to strong correlation among the image frames. Many DSC systems in the literature use feedback channel （FC） to control rate at the decoder, which limits the application of DSC. Upon an analysis of the image data, a rate control approach is proposed to avoid FC. Low-complexity motion compensation is applied first to estimate side information at the encoder. Using a polynomial fitting method, a new mathematical model is then derived to estimate rate based on the correlation between the source and side information. The experimental results show that our estimated rate is a good approximation to the actual rate required by FC while incurring a little bit-rate overhead. Our compression scheme performs comparable with the FC based DSC system and outperforms JPEG2000 significantly.
文摘The two mast cameras, Mastcams, onboard Mars rover Curiosity are multispectral imagers with nine bands in each. Currently, the images are compressed losslessly using JPEG, which can achieve only two to three times of compression. We present a comparative study of four approaches to compressing multispectral Mastcam images. The first approach is to divide the nine bands into three groups with each group having three bands. Since the multispectral bands have strong correlation, we treat the three groups of images as video frames. We call this approach the Video approach. The second approach is to compress each group separately and we call it the split band (SB) approach. The third one is to apply a two-step approach in which the first step uses principal component analysis (PCA) to compress a nine-band image cube to six bands and a second step compresses the six PCA bands using conventional codecs. The fourth one is to apply PCA only. In addition, we also present subjective and objective assessment results for compressing RGB images because RGB images have been used for stereo and disparity map generation. Five well-known compression codecs, including JPEG, JPEG-2000 (J2K), X264, X265, and Daala in the literature, have been applied and compared in each approach. The performance of different algorithms was assessed using four well-known performance metrics. Two are conventional and another two are known to have good correlation with human perception. Extensive experiments using actual Mastcam images have been performed to demonstrate the various approaches. We observed that perceptually lossless compression can be achieved at 10:1 compression ratio. In particular, the performance gain of the SB approach with Daala is at least 5 dBs in terms peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) at 10:1 compression ratio over that of JPEG. Subjective comparisons also corroborated with the objective metrics in that perceptually lossless compression can be achieved even at 20 to 1 compression.
文摘Automatic reading procedures in colon cells biopsies allow a faster and precise reading of microscopic biopsies. These procedures implement automatic image segmentation in order to classify cell types as cancerous or noncancerous. The authors have developed a new approach aiming to detect colon cancer cells derived from the ＂Snake＂ method but using a progressive division of the dimensions of the image to achieve rapid segmentation. The aim of the present paper was to classify different cancerous cell types based on nine morphological parameters and on probabilistic neural network. Three types of cells were used to assess the efficiency of our classifications models, including BH （Benign Hyperplasia）, IN （Intraepithelial Neoplasia） that is a precursor state for cancer, and Ca （Carcinoma） that corresponds to abnormal tissue proliferation （cancer）. Results showed that among the nine parameters used to classify cells, only three morphologic parameters （area, Xor convex and solidity） were found to be effective in distinguishing the three types of cells. In addition, classification of unknown cells was possible using this method.

文摘Multispectral and polarization cameras that can simultaneously acquire the spatial,spectral,and polarization characteristics of an object have considerable potential applications in target detection,biomedical imaging,and remote sensing.In this work,we develop a common-aperture optical system that can capture multispectral and polarization information.An off-axis three-mirror optical system is mounted on the front end of the proposed system and used as a common-aperture telescope in the visible light(400 nm-750 nm)and long-wave infrared(LWIR,8μm-12μm)waveband.The system can maintain a wide field of view(4.5°)and it can demonstrate an enhanced identification ability.The off-axis three-mirror system gets rid of central obscuration while further yielding stable system resolution and energy.Light that has passed through the front-end common-aperture reflection system is divided into the visible light and LWIR waveband by a beamsplitter.The two wavebands then converge on two detectors through two groups of lenses.Our simulation results indicate that the proposed system can obtain clear images in each waveband to meet the diverse imaging requirements.
