Current capabilities and capabilities to be supplemented
Partially reusable
Requires calibration, synchronization or integration
The light point detection front-end or timing statistics module can be reused, but the project still needs to add geometric calibration, time synchronization, motion compensation or equipment system integration.
Gaps in this scenario:Optical lever geometry, reflection double angle relationship and incident point movement compensation are required; mirror angle and target translation must be separated. The sending and receiving angle offset needs to be calibrated independently. Point observation only supports the acquisition/tracking front end, and the data link needs to be implemented independently.
Route-level gaps:Optical lever geometry, reflection double angle relationship and incident point movement compensation are required; mirror angle and target translation must be separated
"Partially reusable" only describes the relative development volume and does not constitute a commitment to accuracy, tempo, stability or delivery time.
Verification methods and acceptance prerequisites
Use an independent angle stage/autocollimator to conduct bidirectional and multi-attitude tests, and report the angle error and return difference. Known angle motion table, communication reference and disturbance injection test
