    Two-dimensional imaging algorithm of asteroid tomography based on filtered back-projection projection

    • 摘要: 针对深空卫星绕飞小行星进行内部探测的需求,提出了一种基于滤波逆投影的小行星层析二维成像算法。该算法中首先由FEKO给出仿真模型的散射数据,进而根据运动相对性原理,建立了观测器对小行星绕飞过程的转台目标回波信号模型,再结合滤波逆投影算法推导了可显示目标内部构造的二维层析成像流程。天线对目标进行绕飞一周收集到的散射数据结合文章算法的成像结果验证了该算法用于小行星内部探测的可行性。文章中首次仿真实现了观测器绕飞小行星以呈现其内部图形展示,为探索小行星内部资源提供了技术基础。

       

      Abstract: This paper presents a two-dimensional tomography algorithm based on filtered back-projection projection of asteroids, which has been designed to meet the demand of deep space satellites for internal exploration of asteroids. In this algorithm, the scattering data of the simulation model is initially provided by FEKO software. According to the principle of kinematic relativity, a target echo signal model is established in the process of the asteroid’s orbit by the observer, based on the target echo signal model established in the rotary station. This is followed by the combination of the filtered back-projection projection algorithm with the tomographic imaging process, which enables the internal structure of the target to be visualized. The imaging results, when combined with the scattering data collected by the antenna during the orbit of the target, serve to verify the feasibility of the algorithm for the detection of the interior of an asteroid. This method represents a simulation of an observer orbiting an asteroid, presenting a graphical display of its interior. This technical foundation is essential for exploring the interior resources of an asteroid.
