Multi-area detection sensitivity calculation model and detection blind areas influence analysis of photoelectric detection target

Abstract

Multi-element array photoelectric detector is the core devices to form a photoelectric detection target with a large field of view. This photoelectric detection target brings about the problem of uneven detection sensitivity distribution in the detection screen. To improve the uneven detection sensitivity of this photoelectric detection target, this paper analyzes the distribution law of the uneven detection sensitivity of the photoelectric detection target using the multi-element array photoelectric detector, dissects the main factors affecting the detection sensitivity according to the photoelectric detection principle, establishes the calculation model of detection sensitivity of the photoelectric detection target in the different detection areas and proposes a method to improve the detection sensitivity by compensating the gain of each unit photoelectric detector. The analysis of simulation and experimental results show that the proposed method of photoelectric detection target can effectively improve the output signal amplitude of the projectile under the certain detection distance, in particular, the output signal amplitude of the projectile is significantly increased when the projectile passes through the detection blind area. The experimental results are consistent with the simulation results, which verify the effectiveness of the proposed improvement method.
