Prior neural radiance fields often struggle to preserve high-frequency textures in urban and aerial large-scale scenes due to insufficient model capacity on the scene surface. This is attributed to their sampling locations or grid vertices falling in empty areas. Additionally, most models do not consider the drastic changes in distances. To address these issues, we propose a novel high-frequency surface shell radiance field, which uses depth-guided information to create a shell enveloping the scene surface under the current view, and then samples conic frustums on this shell to render high-frequency textures. Specifically, our method comprises three parts. Initially, we propose a strategy to fuse voxel grids and information of distance scales to generate a coarse scene at different distance scales. Subsequently, we construct a shell based on the depth information to carry out compensation to incorporate texture details not captured by voxels. Finally, the smooth and denoise post-processing further improves the rendering quality. Substantial scene experiments and ablation experiments demonstrate that our method achieves the obvious improvement of high-frequency textures at different distance scales and outperforms the state-of-the-art methods.
