With the continuous development of laser communication technology, UAV-based laser communication ATP system is gradually developing towards lightweight and miniaturization. This paper presents a multiplex system based on fourquadrant detector, which integrates tracking and communication. By using a four quadrant detector, the precision tracking detector and communication detector in conventional laser communication systems are combined into one. This can reduce the weight, size and power consumption of the fiber optic terminal. The receiving unit uses the diversity receiving and merging function of the four quadrant detector to improve the signal-to-noise ratio and improve the communication performance.
The rapid establishment and stable maintenance of blue-green laser communication links are the conditions for the application of underwater long-distance laser communication. In the case of platform disturbance and random disturbance of seawater channels, the dynamic adaptive Acquisition Pointing and Tracking (APT) system ensures high-precision and fast alignment of laser communication links. Aiming at the problem of communication interruption caused by the interference in underwater laser communication links, combined with the characteristics of an adjustable liquid crystal optical attenuator and photoelectric tracking system, a dynamic adaptive underwater laser communication APT control system is designed and developed in this essay. The experimental results show that the blue-green laser communication system realizes the full-duplex communication function and has engineering significance.
We propose a measurement method of curvature radius and shell thickness of laser fusion capsule by combining computer vision and virtual laser differential confocal technology. We use a CCD to photograph the surface of the capsule, to obtain the subpixel coordinates of the contour edge of the capsule. The qualified capsule can be quickly selected by using the least square fitting algorithm to fit the outer curvature radius. We then use the virtual laser differential confocal detection device to measure the position of the vertex on the outer surface of the capsule, the vertex on the inner surface of the capsule and the center of the capsule. Based on the characteristic that the zero-crossing of the laser differential confocal curve accurately corresponds to the focus of the objective lens, the outer and inner curvature radius and shell thickness of the capsule are measured precisely. The experimental results show that the repeatability of measurement of the outer curvature radius, inner curvature radius and shell thickness are 23 nm, 41 nm and 41 nm, respectively. Compared with the existing measurement methods, the capsule whose curvature radius and shell thickness are qualified can be accurately and quickly selected from the batch capsule using the method, which provides a technical support to the quality characterization of the laser fusion capsule.
