초록

영상센서 중 적외선 센서는 시간경과 및 작동/비작동 반복에 따라 적외선 광원에 대한 응답특성이 조금씩 변화하며, 그 결과 영상품질이 저하된다. 그래서 인공위성에 탑재되는 적외선 센서의 경우 정상적인 임무수행을 위해 교정용 흑체로 주기적인 비균일 응답특성 보정을 실시할 수 있도록 해야 한다. 본 논문에서는 비균일 응답특성 보정을 위해, 적외선 센서의 파장대역 $3.3{\sim}5.2{\mu}m$에서 흑체 방사율이 0.995이상 평균온도차 $1^{\circ}C$ 이하가 되도록 V-그루브(groove) 타입의 흑체를 설계하였다. 성능검증을 위해 흑체의 방사율과 표면온도를 측정하여 검증하였으며, 그 결과로부터 비균일 응답특성 보정오차를 산출하였다.

Each pixel of InfraRed(IR) sensor differently responds to IR light as time elapses or the sensor on/off operation is repeated. As a result, the quality of IR sensor image is deteriorated, and therefore NUC(Non-uniformity Correction) is periodically needed for IR sensor. In this paper, in order to perform NUC in the Satellite, on-board V-grooved blackbody is designed with a baffle so that the emissivity of black body is to be higher than 0.995 as well as the temperature deviation is less than $1^{\circ}C$ in the range of the infrared wave length from 3.3 to $5.2{\mu}m$. To check its performance, the emissivity and the surface temperature of the blackbody by TRT(Transfer Reference Thermometer) and IR Micrometer scanner are measured, respectively. From the results, black body design is verified and the uncertainty of NUC is estimated through the measurement results.
