We propose a method for geometric calibration of multifocus plenoptic cameras using raw images. Multi-focus plenoptic cameras feature several types of micro-lenses spatially aligned in front of the camera sensor to generate micro-images at different magnifications. This multi-lens arrangement provides computational-photography benefits but complicates calibration. Our methodology achieves the detection...
Automatic parking systems have significant effects on intelligent transport systems (ITS) and have been extensively researched. However, most existing vision-based automatic parking slot detection methods cannot obtain the desired results due to variation in light intensity or complex obstacle conditions. Besides, most previous parking slot detection methods only consider the target position occupied...
For spaceborne phased arrays, real-time antenna calibration plays a critically important role. It is the premise of high performance digital beamforming. Conventional antenna calibration approaches usually need to interrupt normal communication traffic flows to perform calibration and thus data satellite communications are interrupted. In this paper, an online calibration method without interrupting...
Physical unclonable functions (PUFs) are devices which are easily probed but difficult to predict. Optical PUFs have been discussed within the literature, with traditional optical PUFs typically using spatial light modulators, coherent illumination, and scattering volumes; however, these systems can be large, expensive, and difficult to maintain alignment in practical conditions. We propose and demonstrate...
A new CMOS readout circuit with non-uniformity calibration for diode uncooled infrared focal plane array (IRFPA) is presented in this paper. A new transconductance amplifier with offset cancellation structure is proposed, utilizing output offset voltage storage. The bias current of each pixel is adjusted by a current splitting DAC array, calibrating the mismatch of the current sources and the non-uniformity...
Nowadays modern technology extensively uses radiation generators and radioactive sources, potentially dangerous both to human health and to the environment. In this context, there is a permanent request for high standards regarding safety and control. The paper presents a remote control data system for in-situ γ-radiation measurements that has to ensure minimal measurements impact and a feasible solution...
This paper describes a novel readout integrated circuit (ROIC) for a photoresistive image sensor array incorporating wheatstone bridge configuration with a variable-gain switched-capacitor amplifier. A 12-bit R-2R ladder digital-to-analog converter (DAC) is used for on-chip calibration. The bias voltage of the bridge is supplied by an on-chip DAC and made programmable between 0 to 1.8 Volts for ROIC...
Measuring broadband signals demands complex calibration of a detector over a sufficient bandwidth. For inertial cavitation emissions, the shock waves will be convolved with the transfer function of the hydrophone, and introduce artefacts to the measurement. Use of appropriately calibrated detectors would thus facilitate meaningful comparison of the cavitation emission data reported from groups using...
This paper presents a 2 GS/s 5-b single-channel SAR ADC in 28 nm CMOS. The ADC uses a gm-boosted StrongARM comparator to achieve the highest reported sampling frequency for a non-time-interleaved SAR ADC. Its high sampling frequency, large input signal capability and one clock cycle latency make the ADC suitable for time-interleaved, multi-stage and feedback ADC architectures. The ADC occupies 900...
This paper describes a novel readout integrated circuit (ROIC) for a nanoscale photoresistive image sensor array with a novel dual element readout and calibration method. The dual element readout increases detector signal sensitivity and sensor dynamic range. It works on the assumption that adjacent nanoscale detectors have similar illumination levels. A novel on-chip two-point calibration method...
This work reports a frequency-agile receiver front-end for rapidly changing channels. The receiver includes a programmable low noise amplifier (LNA) that can be tuned from 4.3 to 5.7 GHz using an all-digital phase-locked loop (ADPLL). It also includes a power detector, a 10-bit SAR ADC, and a closed-loop system to dynamically optimize the matching of the LNA.
We address the problem of people detection in top-view fisheye imaging. Even within the same top-view fisheye frame, upright people appear slanted in various directions and are distorted in different ways. Due to this variability, standard people detectors are not directly applicable to top-view fisheye frames, and dedicated people detectors for the top-view fisheye domain are hard to design. We extract...
The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) on the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (SNPP) satellite uses its 14 reflective solar bands to passively collect solar radiant energy reflected off the Earth. The Level 1 product is the geolocated and radiometrically calibrated top-of-the-atmosphere solar reflectance. The absolute radiometric uncertainty associated with this product includes...
In March, 2016 we first completed the global data processing of digital surface models (DSMs) by using the whole archives of stereo images derived from the Panchromatic Remote-sensing Instrument for Stereo Mapping (PRISM) onboard the Advanced Land Observing Satellite (ALOS). The dataset has unprecedented 5 m grid spacing utilizing the original stereo images in 2.5 m resolution while its target accuracy...
The SCA instrument is a C-band wind scatterometer that forms part of the EUMETSAT Polar System Second Generation (EPS-SG) mission. The paper presents an overview on the current development status of the SCA instrument and of its key equipment.
The Visible-Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) onboard the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (S-NPP) spacecraft as a primary sensor was launched October 28, 2011. There are 22 VIIRS bands: 7 thermal emissive bands (TEBs), 14 reflective solar bands (RSBs) and a Day Night Band (DNB). An on-orbit On-Board Calibrator BlackBody (OBCBB) is used as the TEB calibration source that tracks the...
The Visible Infrared Imager Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) Reflective Solar Band Automated Calibration (RSBAutoCal) Day Night Band (DNB) dark signal and gain ratio calculations exhibit two issues: gain ratio trending instability and gain ratio differences relative to those calculated using the VIIRS Recommended Operating Procedures (VROP) monthly look-up table (LUT) generation tool. These issues have thus...
It has recently been found that the visibility denormalization process introduces a spatial error distribution due to small sporadic offset jumps in the PMS detectors. The radiometric impact of this error at system level is very low. However, due to the good performance of the SMOS instrument, a study has recently been conducted to evaluate the amplitude of such visibility errors and develop a mitigation...
The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) sensor was on board the Suomi National Polar-Orbiting Partnership (S-NPP) launched on 28 October 2011. The VIIRS includes a day-night band (DNB), which is panchromatic with the wavelengths from 500 nm to 900 nm. Its dynamic range covers from full sunlit scenes to lunar-illuminated images. With successful calibration after launch, DNB on-orbit performance...
Since launch on May 04, 2002, Aqua MODIS has successfully operated for 15 years and continuously produced from its observations many data products in support of a broad range of scientific research activities and applications.
