description Planetary, lunar, and deep space exploration has become the frontier of remote sensing science, and three-dimensional (3D) positioning imaging technology is an important part of lunar and deep space exploration. This paper presents a novel passive 3D imaging method based on the photonics integrated interference computational imaging system. This method uses a photonics integrated interference imaging system with a complex lens array. The midpoints of the interference baselines formed by these lenses are not completely overlapped. The distance between the optical axis and the two lenses of the interference baseline are not equal. The system is used to obtain the complex coherence factor of the object space at a limited working distance, and the image evaluation optimization algorithm is used to obtain the clear images and 3D information of the targets of interest. The simulation results show that this method is effective for the working scenes with targets located at single or multiple limited working distances. The sharpness evaluation function of the target presents a good unimodality near its actual distance. The experimental results of the interference of broad-spectrum light show that the theoretical basis of this method is feasible.
