Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of intelligent automobile technology, and in particular to a millimeter wave radar compensation system and compensation method based on automobile intelligent driving. Background Art
[0002] Millimeter wave radar uses millimeter waves. Usually millimeter waves refer to the frequency domain of 30 to 300GHz (wavelength of 1 to 10mm). The wavelength of millimeter waves is between centimeter waves and light waves, so millimeter waves have the advantages of both microwave guidance and photoelectric guidance. Compared with centimeter wave seekers, millimeter wave seekers have the characteristics of small size, light weight and high spatial resolution. Compared with optical seekers such as infrared, laser, and television, millimeter wave seekers have strong ability to penetrate fog, smoke, and dust, and have the characteristics of all-weather (except heavy rainy days) and all-day. In addition, the anti-interference and anti-stealth capabilities of millimeter wave seekers are also better than other microwave seekers.
[0003] In the existing intelligent driving process of automobiles, although millimeter radar waves can play a good role in assisting driving, when millimeter radar waves are interfered by environmental factors such as water vapor and oxygen molecules, it is easy to cause distortion of the propagation time of millimeter wave radar, thereby affecting the driver's judgment of safe distance.
[0004] Based on this, the present invention designs a millimeter-wave radar compensation system and compensation method based on automobile intelligent driving to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0048] The compensation time query module is used to query the unit time compensation time data of a specified interference factor under a specified interference intensity; during the radar compensation process, the unit time compensation time database is queried according to the interference factor and the interference intensity, and then the unit time compensation time information under each interference intensity is found.
[0049] In a further embodiment, the radar acquisition module includes a radar detection module and a return time extraction module;
[0050] The radar detection module is used to be installed in the front and rear of the vehicle to perform millimeter wave radar detection;
[0051] The return time extraction module is used to extract the return time information of the millimeter wave radar detection; during the radar acquisition process, the radar detects the object to be detected, and when the radar receives the return signal, the detection return time information is extracted.
