Abstract

The scanning start angle (SSA), the scanning angle (SA) and the target slope angle (SA) are important parameters of Linear Array CCD Panoramic Aerial Camera. This paper analyzes the relationship of them and suggests that the current method of calculating SA is very difficult to be realized in engineering. It proposes an algorithm of calculating SSA and SA according to TSA. Its main characteristics are, with achieving the overlap rate as a premise, to calculate SSA and SA reasonably and to try to put the target into the middle of swath coverage, making the coverage as wide as possible. The algorithm is very simple and is easy to be realized in engineering. The paper gives us the relationship graph between TSA and SA.
