A high-resolution camera is a precise optical system. Its vibrations during transportation and launch, together with changes in temperature and gravity field in orbit, lead to different degrees of defocus of the camera. Thermal refocusing is one of the solutions to the problems related to in-orbit defocusing, but there are few relevant thermal refocusing mathematical models for systematic analysis and research. Therefore, to further research thermal refocusing systems by using the development of a high-resolution micro-nano satellite (CX6-02) super-resolution camera as an example, we established a thermal refocusing mathematical model based on the thermal elasticity theory on the basis of the secondary mirror position. The detailed design of the thermal refocusing system was carried out under the guidance of the mathematical model. Through optical-mechanical-thermal integration analysis and Zernike polynomial calculation, we found that the data error obtained was about 1%, and deformation in the secondary mirror surface conformed to the optical index, indicating the accuracy and reliability of the thermal refocusing mathematical model. In the final ground test, the thermal vacuum experimental verification data and in-orbit imaging results showed that the thermal refocusing system is consistent with the experimental data, and the performance is stable, which provides theoretical and technical support for the future development of a thermal refocusing space camera.

한국항공우주연구원에서는 심우주 탐사를 위한 핵심 기술 개발을 위해 6U급 초소형 위성인 HiREV(high resolution video and image)를 개발하였다. 6U HiREV 초소형 위성의 임무는 지구 관측을 위한 고해상도 영상 및 동영상 촬영이며, 임무 수행 시 고온의 카메라 모듈로 인해 렌즈와 모듈 간의 열 지향 오차가 발생할 수 있다. 열 지향 오차는 해상도에 큰 영향을 미치므로, 이를 해결하기 위해 열 설계가 필요하다. 또한 HiREV 광학 카메라는 지상에서 쓰이는 상용제품(COTS, Commercial Off The Shelf)을 이용하여 개발한 것이므로 상온에서 가장 좋은 성능을 가지며, 고온/저온 환경인 우주에서 활용되기 위해 별도의 열 설계가 적용되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 임무 카메라 탑재체를 위해 3가지의 수동 열 설계가 수행되었으며, 궤도열 해석을 통하여 열 설계가 효과적임을 확인하였다.

Scanning Thermal Microscope (STU) has been known for its superior resolution for local temperature and thermal property measurement. However, commercially available STU probe which is the key component of SThM does not provide resolution enough to explore nanoscale thermal phenomena. Here, we developed a SThM probe fabrication process that can achieve spatial resolution around 50 m. The batch-fabricated probe has a thermocouple junction located at the end of the tip. The size of the thermocouple junction is around 200 m and the distance of the junction from the very end of the tip is 150 m. The probe is currently being used for nanoscale thermal probing of nano-material and nano device.

Thermal infrared images of Landsat-5 TM and Landsat-7 ETM+ sensors have been unrivalled sources of high resolution thermal remote sensing (60m for ETM+, 120m for TM) for more than two decades. Atmospheric effect that degrades the accuracy of Sea Surface Temperature (SST) measurement significantly, however, can not be corrected as the sensors have only one thermal channel. Recently, MODIS sensor onboard Terra satellite is equipped with dual-thermal channels (31 and 32) of which the difference of at-satellite brightness temperature can provide atmospheric correction with 1km resolution. In this study we corrected the atmospheric effect of Landsat SST by using MODIS data obtained almost simultaneously. As a case study, we produced the Landsat SST near the eastern and western coast of Korea. Then we have obtained Terra/MODIS image of the same area taken approximately 30 minutes later. Atmospheric correction term was calculated by the difference between the MODIS SST (Level 2) and the SST calculated from a single channel (31 of Level 1B). This term with 1km resolution was used for Landsat SST atmospheric correction. Comparison of in situ SST measurements and the corrected Landsat SSTs has shown a significant improvement in $R^2$ from 0.6229 to 0.7779. It is shown that the combination of the high resolution Landsat SST and the Terra/MODIS atmospheric correction can be a routine data production scheme for the thermal remote sensing of ocean.

열적외선 영상은 육안으로 식별 할 수 없는 물체를 감지할 수 있는 특성을 가지고 있으며, 접근 불가지역의 정보를 쉽게 얻을 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있다. 그러나 열적외선 영상은 상대적으로 낮은 공간 해상도를 지니는 한계점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 무인 항공기를 활용하여 취득한 영상에 대하여 위성영상에 적용되는 영상융합 알고리즘의 적용 가능성을 연구하였다. RGB 영상은 TIR (Thermal InfraRed) 영상보다 높은 공간 해상도를 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 상대적으로 낮은 공간 해상도를 갖는 TIR 영상에 영상융합 알고리즘을 적용하여 RGB 영상과 같은 공간 해상도를 가지며 온도정보를 가지는 융합영상을 생성하고자 한다. 실험결과, PC1 밴드와 RGB 밴드의 평균값을 이용하여 영상융합 알고리즘을 수행한 경우, 다른 밴드를 활용하여 연구를 수행한 경우보다 정량적 평가에 대해서 더 좋은 결과가 나타냈으며, ATWT (${\grave{A}}$ Trous Wavelet Transform) 기법에 의한 융합영상이 HPF (High-Pass Filter) 및 SFIM (Smoothing Filter-based Intensity Modulation) 기법에 의한 융합영상보다 더 뛰어난 분광해상도 및 공간 해상도를 나타냈다.

In this paper, we propose efficient design and construction of an infrared wide angle optical system with low distortion utilizing a high resolution detector for automobile application. The operational convenience and the recognition ability have been improved significantly by applying the high resolution uncooled thermal detector with wide angle optical design. The active ahtermalization mechanism is implemented so that the adjustment of the optical component of the system is to be made automatically according to the temperature change by motorized control. The modulation transfer function (MTF) is about 50% at the Nyquist frequency close the diffraction limit. The distortion is less than 5% at the edge field. As a result, a high-resolution uncooled thermal optical system with wide field of view (FOV) is assembled, aligned and its performance is tested successfully.

Recently there are growing interests on the energy conservation and emission reduction. In the fields of architecture and civil engineering, the energy monitoring of structures is required to response the energy issues. In perspective of thermal monitoring, thermal images gains popularity for their rich visual information. With the rapid development of the drone platform, aerial thermal images acquired using drone can be used to monitor not only a part of structure, but wider coverage. In addition, the stereo photogrammetric process is expected to generate 3D point cloud with thermal information. However thermal images show very poor in resolution with narrow field of view that limit the use of drone-based thermal photogrammety. In the study, we aimed to generate 3D thermal point cloud using visible and thermal images. The visible images show high spatial resolution being able to generate precise and dense point clouds. Then we extract thermal information from thermal images to assign them onto the point clouds by precisely establishing photogrammetric collinearity between the point clouds and thermal images. From the experiment, we successfully generate dense 3D thermal point cloud showing 3D thermal distribution over the building structure.

본 연구에서는 기존의 열영상 측정 장치에 비해 위상잠금기법을 채용한 열영상 측정 장치의 온도분해능이 얼마나 향상될 수 있는지를 평가하기 위해 흑체시스템과 마이크로 레지스터 시편을 이용한 실험을 수행하여 개선된 온도분해능을 확인하였다. 일반적으로 적외선 열영상 측정 장치의 노이즈 수준 또는 온도분해능은 연속적으로 측정된 열영상의 픽셀별 온도의 평균과 각각의 측정값의 편차에 대한 제곱의 평균으로 정의되는 잡음등가온도차(noise equivalent temperature difference, NETD)라는 척도를 이용하여 평가되고 있다. 하지만 위상잠금 열영상 기법을 적용하면 더욱 편리한 방법을 이용할 수 있는데 이는 측정된 열영상 신호의 위상과는 무관한 온도의 진폭에 관한 정보를 이용하는 것이다. 연구결과를 통해 알 수 있듯이, 위상잠금 기법을 적용하게 되면 측정된 신호의 온도분해능 성능을 보여주는 잡음등가온도차가 크게 향상되었으며 이는 위상잠금기법이 내부적으로 수행하는 평균화 작업과 필터링 기능 때문인 것으로 판단되고 있다.
