Abstract
In order to detect the distribution of gravity waves in the middle and upper atmosphere, an all-sky airglow imaging spectrometer is designed to measure the airglow. It has the detection advantages of ultrawide field of view (FOV), large relative aperture and high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). It can obtain the spectral images of OH (715–850 nm / 880–930 nm) and OI (630 nm) in the height range of 87–250 km. The whole design method of telecentric objective splicing relay zoom group is used to effectively suppress the spectral drift less than 0.2 nm, which meets the requirements of narrow bandwidth filters. The field experiments in northwest China show that the all-sky airglow imaging spectrometer can continuously acquire airglow spectral images with high SNR in both OH channel and OI channel without focusing in the temperature range of 0–45 ℃, and the images obtained in OH channel have obvious gravity wave phenomenon after star point removal and geometric correction.
