Challenge
However, when directly using a miniature spectrometer to detect trace multiple metal ion information in a high-concentration background, due to the uneven energy distribution of the light source, the large number of trace metal ions to be detected, and the selective absorption of different metal ions to different spectral bands. For other reasons, the spectral characteristics of the optical signal obtained by different integration sampling time parameters are very different, especially in the light source energy attenuation and the characteristic absorption band of the ion. If the integration time set by the micro-spectrometer is too large, the CCD will saturate, and the test data will be distorted. If the integration time is too small, the energy value will be weak, and the integration time parameter setting will affect.
According to the characteristics of the spectral signal, a high-quality spectral signal reconstruction algorithm based on binary search is proposed.

It can be seen from Figure 4 that the spectral characteristics of the pre-reconstruction and post-reconstruction spectral absorbance signals in the dashed frame are quite different. The spectral peak amplitude of the reconstructed spectral signal is large, and the spectral curve sensitivity is higher. It is easy to identify the ion species and ion concentration information in the wavelength range. For the ultraviolet-visible spectrum signal in the wavelength range of 280 to 760nm, the signal-to-noise ratio of the reconstructed absorbance signal is higher than the signal-to-noise ratio before reconstruction, which is conducive to the analysis and processing of low signal-to-noise ratio spectral data to a certain extent. It is also conducive to the analysis and extraction of the characteristics of the spectrum by the wavelength feature selection algorithm.

- Given the target reconstruction accuracy p and the target energy value maxtop of the spectrum signal reconstructed by the specified target at each wavelength point, the setting range is [maxtopL, maxtopR], the step length is 1, and the initial value maxtop=maxtopL is set;
- Calculate the reconstructed spectral signal θ of the target, and use the binary search algorithm to search and query the data in DATA to find out the target integration time of each wavelength point and the spectral energy value under this integration time;
- Increase maxtop by 1 and repeat step (3) until maxtop=maxtopR to obtain the reconstructed spectral signal under all target energy values;
- Calculate the target reconstruction accuracy p value of the reconstructed spectral signal under all target energy values, and select the spectral energy value with the highest reconstruction accuracy as the information amount of signal reconstruction;
