Abstract: The shipboard meteorological satellite receiving一processing system(SMSRPS) is specially developed for the navigation meteorological safeguard of the Antarctic exploration ship over the sea ice area of the Southtrn Ocean.This system can suit to the climate environment of very high temperature一high moisture and very low temperature-supersaturation; it has a self-protection ability to against the hurricane-force wind over Force 12 and the strong vibration during icebreaking, as well as strong magnetic disturbance.It has two sets of receiving-imagery processing systems for polar orbit low-resolution and quasi-stationary high-resolution satellites.The key creation points of this system are as follows:(1)The active gyro-control stabilization platform and a mixed mounting system of three rotating α-β and X-Y axes sre used.It solved the tracing difficulties both in the low elevation angle and very high elevation angle of polar-orbit satellite, even in the status of ship moving with continuously changing its position, direction and ship roll and pitch.(2) Imagery processing subsystem.The newest BORLAND-DELPHI language programming and PASCAL language software are used under Windows 95 environment.It has a dynamic positioning nested-grid system and electric mapping grid data system.It can show the latitude-longitude of any point on the map, and marks any object such as ship, station or island, and draws the route.It can monitor cloud and temperature, forest fire, anomalous change of ocean and land.It can output satellite cloud maps of 24 bit with very high clarity.This system is very advanced in technique for the whole structure with the features of small volume, light weight and very low cost.It suits to very bad climate and ocean environment.Its imagery processing system has complete functions with high resolution and beiing very easy to operate.It is not only suit to land use, but also specially to all kinds of ship over the sea.It can be extended to domestic and international use.
