Abstract

Considering different detector in IRFPA has different nonlinear response characteristic, a novel piecewise linear connection scheme for nonuniformity correction in IRFPA is proposed in this paper. Comparing to the widely used piecewise linear correction, the proposed scheme tries to find the n-segment piecewise straight-line which strives for going near (not always through) all available calibration points, rather than just passes through some n + 1 calibration points. Since each detector's output is corrected to the expected correction value as near as possible, the new scheme can achieve better NUC performance within the whole calibration range than that of the old one. The comparison experiment with simulated data and real IRFPA infrared data shows that the performance of this approach is more perfect than that of the old piecewise linear algorithm.
