Abstract:
For measuring the stray light level and verifying the ability of stray light suppression of optical remote satellite, the imaging time and orbital characteristic of some satellite were analyed, a scanning system of stray light measuring for optical remote satellite was developed, which was based on a large 7-dimension robot. According to the annual lighting condition of satellite in orbit, the controlling formulae were deduced for all the kinematic mechanism, with the scanning azimuth angle -90-+90, pitch angle -29-+42.5, and their angular accuracy were up to 0.2 and 0.1 separately, the position accuracy was better than 10 mm. Otherwise, an extinction subsystem, which was made was low reflectance material(lower than 1.5% between 400-1 600 nm) and large extinction structure and extinction coefficient could reach 9.910-7, was used to simulate extreme dark target and deep space room. The scanning system of stray light measuring for optical remote satellite can satisfy most optical payload at present for stray light measurement, analysis and verification.
