The invention relates to an adaptive focusing
system and focusing method for fast imaging of a spatial optical camera. The adaptive focusing
system comprises a main reflector temperature collection unit, a camera controller unit and a focusing mechanism unit, wherein the camera controller unit is connected with the main reflector temperature collection unit and the focusing mechanism unit. The adaptive focusing
system solves the problem of out-of-focus judgment on a temperature change caused by a coaxial three-mirror carbon
fiber optical system of the spatial optical camera, omits the processes of artificial out-of-focus judgment of downloaded data, out-of-focus amount calculation, focusing instruction injection and the like, achieves real-time closed-loop adjustment of a focal plane of the optical system of the camera and the camera temperature, solves the fast high-quality
imaging problem under the condition of an unbalanced temperature after the spatial optical camera enters an
orbit, and provides a
technical support for fast imaging development of a spatial optical
satellite of our country.
