| description | This article proposes a measurement method using a multi-dimensional LED detection array, which can be used to obtain the flight parameters (i.e., impact coordinates, flight velocity, and incident angle) of a small flying object. Firstly, the composition of the proposed system and its detection principle are described in detail. Then, a calculation model is derived according to the geometrical relationship between the different LED detection arrays, which can calculate the above flight parameters. Furthermore, numerical simulations are performed to analyze the change trend in the measurement error of the proposed system, and it can be verified that its measurement performance meets the related requirements in theory. Finally, we use the proposed system and a high-speed camera system to carry out comparison experiments with two different reference velocities of 900 m/s and 700 m/s, and the results show that the maximum deviation in the measured absolute velocity is always less than 1 m/s and that the maximum deviations of the measured coordinates of <i>x</i> and <i>y</i> are not more than 2 mm within the effective measurement range. Therefore, the proposed measurement method is feasible and effective, and it can also meet the requirements of the measurement system. |
