Orbit target IR characteristic is the basis of the IR imaging detection equipment design, the corresponding digital simulation model validation, and the application processing development, such as the target detection and tracking. In the work, an infrared measurement system for simulated space target is represented. The system can acquire the infrared characteristics of the target in the simulated space environment on the ground. In order to simulate the whole orbit environment, vacuum chamber and solar simulator are used in the work. An IR window is developed for the system. Then measurement instruments can be place outside the chamber to get the characteristic through the IR window. The work also provides a method to calibrate the IR window. The IR characteristic at the wavelength range of 3 μ~12 μm can be obtained with the system.
To satisfy the application of fiber grating sensor technology in high vacuum thermal environment, FBG on sleeve compactly single model fiber with two typical different kind of connection such as fiber splicing and optical fiber connector are researched. Influence of the different connection to the characteristic of FBG reflectance spectrum in high vacuum thermal environment is analyzed and verified. First, experimental program of influence on FBG reflection spectrum characteristics is designed. Then, a hardware-in-the-loop detection platform is set up. Finally, the influence of temperature and vacuum on the reflection peak power of FBG with two typical different connections under high vacuum thermal environment is studied and verified. Experimental results indicate that: when vacuum varied from normal pressure to 10-4Pa level and then return to normal pressure, temperature of two different single-mode optical fiber connection dropped to -196 ̊C from room temperature and then returned to room temperature, after 224 hours, the peak power of the FBG reflectance spectrum did not change. It provided the experimental basis for the application of optical fiber sensing technology in high vacuum (pressure about 10-4Pa level) and thermal environment (-196 ̊C temperature cycle).
