Abstract

The exploration and study of habitable zone planets is one of the hot research fields of exoplanets in recent years. The exploration of habitable planets near the solar system is of great significance to the study of the origin of life and has become the main theme of exoplanet exploration. As an important means of detecting exohabitable planets, space-based distributed synthetic aperture technology has become a hot spot in the research of advanced optical technology. In this paper, the technical principle of space-based distributed optical synthetic aperture system based on Michelson interferometric imaging is discussed in detail, and the development of typical distributed synthetic aperture systems at home and abroad is introduced. The technical challenges involved are demonstrated.
- Habitable planet,
- Distributed,
