Abstract
With continuous development, the hyperspectral imaging has become a hot topic in the field of remote sensing, since its enormous advantage in obtaining the material composition of atmosphere, land resources, battlefield environment and marine resources while observing the Earth in space. However, some challenges have hindered the application of space-based hyperspectral imaging system. To fulfill the requirements of the spectral imager especially for space use, the lightweight and stable structure is especially important. Here the implementation of a Large Aperture Hyperspectral Imaging Optical System is presented. The optical system achieves hyperspectral imaging from ultraviolet to infrared spectral bands. The different spectral bands share a large common aperture of Ø1.8m. A lightweight primary mirror is designed and supported by bipod structure. To keep the large distance between the primary mirror and second mirror, a Lightweight and high-strength truss has been applied. A hierarchical structure is adopt as the main structure of the whole system. With the diffraction gratings and optical slits, the image information of different spectral bands are detected by the different lines of pixels in a focal plane of planar array. By the creative works of the optical and mechanical design, a hyperspectral imaging optical system is implemented and shows the extensive application potential in space remote sensing.
