Abstract
To solve the problem caused by jamming, an acousto-optic tunable filter (AOTF)-based imaging spectrometer and a corresponding spatial–spectral discrimination method are proposed for aerial targets. The system has the capability of staring imaging and is electronically tunable, which provides the spatial location and a distinguishable spectral feature in a few images. Since AOTF operates in a frame mode, the spectral brightness of the targets can be predicted by Kalman filtering, like with the motion model. The final target state is updated by using synthetic spatial–spectral information to realize fast decision-making. The results show that the proposed method is more targeted to solve the problem caused by jamming, compared with the traditional energy discrimination method.
