Abstract
The sidelobe phenomenon of acousto-optic tunable filter (AOTF)-based hyperspectral imaging is the result of the phase mismatching condition, which will reduce the quality of hyperspectral imaging data. This phenomenon can be observed in two specified scenes, namely, high brightness panchromatic target imaging and high brightness monochromatic target imaging. In this paper, the acousto-optic interaction in these two scenes is discussed using the phase matching condition. As a follow-up work of the previous related research, this paper studies laser interference in AOTF imaging, which is a typical example of the second case. A method to remove laser sidelobes in AOTF-based hyperspectral imaging is proposed, which combines a series of procedures including laser point extraction, reverse imaging before AOTF, ray tracing in AOTF, forward imaging process after AOTF, and laser elimination. Experimental results have verified the effectiveness of the proposed method.
