摘要：Point spread function (PSF) of an imaging system is an important parameter to a remote sensing imaging system, and it is the important basis for image restoration [1]. The knife-edges method has been widely used to measure PSF because it provides a relatively easy way to get the point spread function. However, the location of the edge points in edge spread function (ESF) is difficult to determine of the knife-edges method, resulting in the inaccuracy of the point spread function. In this paper, we propose a new method to solve the problem of phase influence for calibrating PSF of space plane array camera. This method include: the design of target, the process of calibration and data processing. Then this method was used on calibrating PSF of GF-4 satellite panchromatic camera. The results showed that the new method could determine the PSF correctly.
