Abstract
The Wide Field of View Cherenkov Telescope Array (WFCTA), situated in the harsh environment of Daocheng, is established to investigate ultrahigh energy cosmic rays. To enhance the calibration of WFCTA, a portable laser calibration system has been developed, which provides specified energy and direction of the YAG laser. Special designs, including power system, north calibration, and rotating system, have been implemented to ensure the proper functioning of the portable laser calibration system. The aluminum alloy of the entire frame and the vibration damper provide robust anti-impact ability and safety during transportation to different observation locations. A temperature control facility has been employed to meet the operational temperature requirement of electronic equipment. Various sensors have been utilized to monitor environmental parameters, the energy of YAG laser pulses, azimuth and pitch angles, and other parameters in real-time. The auto-control program is communicated wirelessly to avoid any manual interference with the system. The field experiment results have confirmed the reliability of the system and its ability to meet the calibration requirements of WFCTA.
