Based on photonic integrated circuit (PIC) technology and synthetic aperture technology, the advanced technology of segmented planar imaging, which can be used to realize ultrathin and high-resolution imaging, is proposed. We develop a sampling lens array structure that combines coherent detection and traditional imaging; it can improve the sampling of low- and medium-frequency information. Based on the proposed lens array structure, a full-chain simulation model of the segmented planar imaging system is established. Under the premise of similar imaging quality, compared with the existing sampling lens structures, the proposed lens array has a simpler structure, lower processing difficulty, and lower cost. The simulation analyses of the duty ratio of the lens array, the light splitting number of PIC arrayed waveguide gratings, and the radius of the single lens are carried out. The simulation results provide a certain reference value for the optimal design of the segmented planar optical imaging system and further prove the advantages of the proposed structure.
