Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) is under development to provide a monitoring of oceancolor around the Korean Peninsula from geostationary platforms. It is planned to be loaded on Communication, Ocean, and Meteorological Satellite (COMS) of Korea. In this paper radiometric calibration concept of the GOCI is introduced. The GOCI radiometric response is modeled as a nonlinear system in order to reflect a nonlinear characteristic of detector. In this paper estimation approaches for radiometric parameters of GOCI model are discussed. For the GOCI, the offset signal depends on each spectral channel because dark current offset signal is a function of integration time which is different from channel to channel. The offset parameter can be estimated by using offset signal measurements for two integration time setting is described.

The Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) is under development to provide a monitoring of ocean-color around the Korean Peninsula from geostationary platforms. It is planned to be loaded on Communication, Ocean, and Meteorological Satellite (COMS) of Korea. The GOCI has been designed to provide multi-spectral data to detect, monitor, quantify, and predict short term changes of coastal ocean environment for marine science research and application purpose. The target area of GOCI observation covers sea area around the Korean Peninsula. Based on the nonlinear radiometric model, the GOCI calibration method has been derived. The nonlinear radiometric model for GOCI will be validated through ground test. The GOCI radiometric calibration is based on on-board calibration devices; solar diffuser, DAMD (Diffuser Aging Monitoring Device). In this paper, the GOCI radiometric error propagation is analyzed. The radiometric model error due to the dark current nonlinearity is analyzed as a systematic error. Also the offset correction error due to gain/offset instability is considered. The radiometric accuracy depends mainly on the ground characterization accuracies of solar diffuser and DAMD.

The paper presents the advanced radiometric calibration method, called the lRCM (Iterative Radiometric Calibration Method), in order to avoid an operational constraint (solar source) for calibration. The IRCM assumes that an optical instrument is equipped with a filter assembly which consists of same band filters with different transmission ratios. Given all the noise sources (including the artificial one caused by the filters) of an image sensor, the noncentral ${\chi}^2$ distribution of the output result is induced by the approach of a noise PDF (Power Density Function). Finally, the radiometric calibration problem is transformed into equating two independent relations for the image sensor gains through the specified distribution.

The target area of GOCI observation covers sea area around the Korean Peninsula. Based on the nonlinear radiometric model, the GOCI calibration method has been derived. The radiometric model of GOCI has been validated through radiometric ground test. From this ground test result, GOCI radiometric model has been changed from second order to third order. In this paper, the radiometric test performed to evaluate the radiometric nonlinearity is described and the GOCI radiometric error propagation is analyzed. The GOCI radiometric calibration is based on onboard calibration devices; solar diffuser, DAMD (Diffuser Aging Monitoring Device). The radiometric model error due to the dark current nonlinearity is considered as a systematic error. Also the offset correction error due to gain/offset instability is considered.

해색위성 원격탐사에서 광학센서에서 측정된 전자기 시그날을 태양광 복사휘도로 산출하는 것은 해양 환경 모니터링의 시작이 되는 중요 단계이다. 일반적으로 광학센서가 임무 기간 수많은 촬영을 하면서 감쇄가 일반적이며 이로 인해 발생하는 복사 보정의 불확도는 해수원격반사도, 엽록소-a 농도, 유색용존유기물 등 최종 산출물에 영향을 미치기 때문에, 국제적으로 해색위성의 임무기간 중 자료 연속성을 위한 복사보정의 중요성을 강조해 왔다. 본 연구는 Geostationary Ocean Color Imager-II (GOCI-II) 위성의 지속적인 품질과 정확성을 확보하기 위해 GOCI-II의 복사 보정 알고리즘을 개선 방법을 제시한다. GOCI-II는 궤도상 복사 보정 장치인 태양광 확산기(Solar Diffuser, SD)를 사용하여 gain을 지속적으로 측정하였다. 시계열 분석 결과 gain이 방위각에 따라 계절적 변동을 보임과 동시에 센서의 노후화 가능성을 고려해야 함을 확인하였다. 본 연구에서는 방위각 보정 모델을 도입하여 계절 주기성을 제거하였고, 센서 감쇄 보정 모델을 통해 복사 이득의 비선형적 추세를 산출하였다. 본 연구에서 개선된 복사 보정 알고리즘을 적용하여 대기 최상층(Top of Atmosphere, TOA) 복사휘도의 스펙트럼에 미치는 영향을 확인하였고, 이는 GOCI-II 데이터의 장기적인 안정성 확보를 통해 신뢰성 있는 위성 산출물을 제공함으로써 장기간 트렌드 분석 및 해양 환경 모니터링에 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

Although infrared focal plane array (IRFPA) detectors have been commonly used, non-uniformity correction (NUC) remains an important problem in the infrared imaging realm. Non-uniformity severely degrades image quality and affects radiometric accuracy in infrared imaging applications. Residual non-uniformity (RNU) significantly affects the detection range of infrared surveillance and reconnaissance systems. More effort should be exerted to improve IRFPA uniformity. A novel NUC method that considers the surrounding temperature variation compensation is proposed based on the binary nonlinear non-uniformity theory model. The implementing procedure is described in detail. This approach simultaneously corrects response nonlinearity and compensates for the influence of surrounding temperature shift. Both qualitative evaluation and quantitative test comparison are performed among several correction technologies. The experimental result shows that the residual non-uniformity, which is corrected by the proposed method, is steady at approximately 0.02 percentage points within the target temperature range of 283 K to 373 K. Real-time imaging shows that the proposed method improves image quality better than traditional techniques.
