[0023] Below, the specific embodiments of the present application will be described in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements. In the following exemplary embodiments, the described embodiments are not all embodiments of the present application. On the contrary, they are only examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present application as detailed in the attached claims. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0024] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1It is a schematic diagram of the structure of the frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) laser radar of the present application. The FMCW laser radar 1 of the present application adopts the working principle of coherent reception. By comparing the instantaneous beat frequency relationship between the reflected light beam reflected from the target object 2 and the local oscillator light beam of the laser radar 1, information such as the distance between the target object 2 and the laser radar 1 and the speed of the target object can be given at the same time.

[0025] refer to Figure 2A , Figure 2A The schematic diagram of the FMCW laser radar using a triangular wave linear frequency modulation to measure a stationary object is shown. Figure 2A In the figure, the solid triangle wave is the instantaneous time-frequency relationship of the radar signal beam or local oscillator beam, and the dotted triangle wave is the instantaneous time-frequency relationship of the reflected beam of the stationary target object, where τ is the delay of the reflected beam of the stationary target object, and f 1 、f 2 are the beat frequencies of the reflected beam of the stationary object in the up-sweep part and the down-sweep part (i.e., the beat frequency in the up-sweep stage and the beat frequency in the down-sweep stage between the reflected beam and the local oscillator beam), T is a cycle formed by a complete up-sweep and down-sweep, f B It is the sweep bandwidth of the linear frequency modulation (i.e. modulation depth). Figure 2A In the above example, the beat frequencies of the reflected light beam in the up-conversion stage and the down-conversion stage are:

[0026]

[0027]

[0028] Assuming the distance between the target object and the laser radar is R, then R = τ*c / 2, where c is the speed of light and λ is the laser wavelength. Figure 2A In the time-frequency relationship diagram, the relationship between the beat frequency of the reflected light beam in the up-conversion phase and the beat frequency in the down-conversion phase and the distance between the target object and the laser radar is shown in the following formula 2:

[0029]

[0030] Figure 2B The schematic diagram shows the principle of measuring an object moving towards the direction of the laser radar using an FMCW laser radar with a related triangle wave modulation. Figure 2B In the figure, the solid triangle wave is the instantaneous time-frequency relationship of the radar signal beam or local oscillator beam, and the dotted triangle wave is the reflected beam of the target object moving towards the direction of the lidar, where τ is the delay of the reflected beam of the target object, and f 1 、f 2are the beat frequencies of the reflected light beam of the target object in the upper sweep part and the lower sweep part, T is the period of the upper sweep and the lower sweep, and f B is the sweep bandwidth of the linear frequency modulation, f d =(f 2 -f 1 ) / 2. Figure 2B In the above example, the beat frequencies of the reflected light beam in the up-conversion stage and the down-conversion stage are:

[0031]

[0032]

[0033] The distance R and speed ν of the target object are as follows:

[0034]

[0035] When using the above formula 2 and formula 4 to calculate the distance R and speed ν of the target object, it is necessary to use the beat frequency f in the upscaling stage 1 and the beat frequency f in the frequency reduction stage 2 The beat frequency f in the upconversion stage 1 and the beat frequency f in the frequency reduction stage 2 is the intermediate frequency signal. When the signal processing method is used to adjust the beat frequency f in the frequency upscaling stage, 1 and the beat frequency f in the frequency reduction stage 2 When performing analog-to-digital conversion (ADC), discrete sampling, and fast Fourier transform (FFT), the resolution of the fast Fourier transform (FFT) determines the accuracy of the frequency resolution that can be obtained. For example, when the sampling frequency is f s , the number of sampling points is N (N is a positive integer), the sampling time is T / 2, and the sampling time interval is t s =1 / f s , the frequency resolution can be expressed as:

[0036]

[0037] The distance resolution can be expressed as

[0038]

[0039] Therefore, the method of improving the ranging accuracy (i.e. reducing ΔR) can be achieved by increasing f B Or reduce Δf to achieve. This application improves the ranging accuracy by reducing Δf without changing the modulation depth f B .

[0040] In this application, frequency resolution refers to the ability to separate two adjacent spectrum peaks on the spectrum by performing Fourier transform on the intermediate frequency digital signal. In practical applications, it refers to the minimum interval for distinguishing two signals of different frequencies.

[0041] In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides a laser measurement method. The laser measurement method can be applied to frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) laser radar, such as Figure 3 As shown, the laser measurement method includes the following steps S301-S305.

[0042] Step S301: Generate a frequency-sweeping light beam.

[0043] Specifically, the swept frequency beam can be generated by a laser light source. The laser light source can be directly modulated by a chirp signal drive of an optical signal. For example, a driving signal for controlling the laser light source can be input to the laser light source with an intensity that varies with time, so that the laser light source generates and outputs a swept frequency beam, i.e., a beam whose frequency varies within a predetermined range.

[0044] In some embodiments, the laser light source may further include a modulator that receives a modulation signal. The modulator may be configured to modulate the light beam based on the modulation signal to generate and output a frequency-sweeping light beam, the frequency of which varies within a predetermined range, and the frequency-sweeping light beam may have a triangular waveform or a sawtooth waveform, as shown in FIG2 . The principle of generating a frequency-sweeping light beam by an FMCW laser radar is well known to those skilled in the art. In order to save space, this article will not be further described here.

[0045] Step S302: Splitting the frequency-sweeping beam into a signal beam and a local oscillator beam.

[0046] In some examples, a beam splitter may be used to split the swept frequency beam into a signal beam and a local oscillator beam. The signal beam and the local oscillator beam have the same frequency at any point in time, that is, the frequency modulation waveforms of the signal beam and the local oscillator beam are exactly the same. In some examples, the beam splitter may be a specific wavelength coupler (splitter) for wavelengths of 445 to 2100 nm, such as a 1X2 beam splitter on an optical chip and a beam splitter of the SMC series. In other examples, other beam splitters known to those skilled in the art that can split the swept frequency beam into a signal beam and a local oscillator beam may also be used.

[0047] Step S303: emitting the signal light beam, and receiving a reflected light beam generated when the signal light beam encounters a target object.

[0048] In some examples, an optical transmitter and receiver or an optical transceiver is used to emit the signal light beam at a predetermined angle, and a light receiver or the optical transceiver is used to receive a reflected light beam reflected by a target object.

[0049] Step S304: Mix the local oscillator light beam and the reflected light beam to obtain an optical mixing signal between the local oscillator light beam and the reflected light beam.

[0050] Specifically, the received reflected light beam is optically mixed with the local oscillator light beam to obtain an optical mixing signal. An optical mixer can be used for optical mixing. The mixer can be a coupler, such as a 2×2 optical coupler, and the mixing signal is a coherent signal generated by the interference between the local oscillator light beam and the corresponding reflected light beam. The mixer or coupler can be a mixer and a coupler well known to those skilled in the art. In order to save space, this application will not be described in detail.

[0051] Step S305: Acquire the beat frequency electrical signal between the local oscillator light beam and the reflected light beam.

[0052] Specifically, the beat frequency electrical signal may include a beat frequency electrical signal in a frequency increasing stage and a beat frequency electrical signal in a frequency decreasing stage. The beat frequency electrical signal in the frequency increasing stage and the beat frequency electrical signal in the frequency decreasing stage are intermediate frequency signals.

[0053] Specifically, a balanced detector can be used to measure the beat frequency of the local oscillator light beam and the reflected light beam. The balanced detector can be a photoelectric detector.

[0054] Step S306: performing analog-to-digital conversion (ADC) and sampling on the beat frequency signal in the frequency up-conversion phase and the beat frequency electrical signal in the frequency down-conversion phase to obtain a sampling sequence x[n].

[0055] Specifically, the beat frequency signal in the frequency-up phase and the beat frequency electrical signal in the frequency-down phase are respectively subjected to ADC and first sampling to obtain a first sampling sequence x 1 [n] and the second sampling sequence x 2 [n] In this application, for the first sampling sequence x 1 [n] and the second sampling sequence x 2 The processing method and principle of [n] are the same, and are described as sampling sequence x[n] in the following description of this application.

[0056] In some examples, the sampling frequency is f s , the number of sampling points is N, N is a positive integer. Therefore, the sampling sequence x[n] is obtained, n = 0, 1, ..., N-1. In this case, the initial frequency resolution of the sampled signal is

[0057]

[0058] Step S307: Perform the first FFT transformation on the sampling sequence x[n] to obtain the first target frequency f 0 ,

[0059]

[0060] Specifically, the first target frequency above can be selected as the frequency center, and the frequency range to be further processed can be selected as (f 0 -Δf,f 0+Δf).

[0061] Step S308: Generate a unit complex exponential signal The unit complex exponential signal Multiply it with the sampling sequence x[n] to convert the real signal sequence into a complex signal sequence.

[0062] Specifically, by transforming the unit complex exponential signal Multiply by the sample sequence x[n] Change the center frequency of the sampling signal from the first target frequency f 0 Move to zero frequency.

[0063] Step S309: low-pass filtering the complex signal sequence using a low-pass anti-aliasing filter to filter out high-frequency components.

[0064] The specific content and parameters of the low-pass anti-aliasing filter can refer to the relevant technology, and this application will not be described in detail here. The parameters of the low-pass anti-aliasing filter can be designed according to actual needs. Optionally, the parameter design of the low-pass anti-aliasing filter needs to filter out high-frequency components that exceed more than half of the sampling frequency.

[0065] Step S310: Sampling the low-pass filtered signal sequence for the second time to obtain a new signal sequence

[0066] Specifically, the sampling frequency of the second sampling can be Where M is the multiple by which the frequency of the low-pass filtered signal sequence is refined as needed. M can be an integer multiple of 2 M = 1, 2, 4..., 2 m , that is, the value of M can be selected to refine the frequency resolution by M times, thereby increasing the distance resolution that the FMCW laser radar can detect by M times (see Formula 6). The new signal sequence x after the second sampling c (n) includes N / M discrete signals.

[0067] Step S311: Expand the N / M discrete signals and expand the number of sampling points to N.

[0068] Specifically, the sampling points of the N / M discrete signals can be supplemented by interpolation or zero padding. The interpolation and zero padding methods can refer to the interpolation or zero padding methods used by ordinary technicians in the field of digital signal processing. The frequency resolution of the expanded N discrete signals is

[0069]

[0070] Step S312: Perform a second FFT transformation on the expanded N discrete signals to obtain a second target frequency f 1 .

[0071] Among them, f 1 =b*Δf x ,b∈(-M,M) is an integer.

[0072] Step S313: Set the first target frequency f 0 and the second target frequency f 1 Add together to obtain the refined target signal frequency f beat

[0073] f beat =f 0 +f 1 =a*Δf+b*Δf x =(a*M+b)*Δf x Formula 9

[0074] Step S314: Using the obtained refined target frequency f beat The distance and speed of the target object are calculated according to Formula 3 and Formula 4.

[0075] Through the above method, the spectrum resolution is refined by M times, and the ranging resolution is improved by M times. The solution of the present application can improve the frequency resolution of the beat frequency signal without changing the modulation depth and the sweep frequency period, thereby improving the calculation accuracy of the ranging.

In this embodiment, the laser radar includes a laser light source 401, which is configured to generate a swept frequency beam, and the swept frequency beam can be a swept frequency beam with a triangular waveform or a swept frequency beam with a sawtooth waveform; and a beam splitter 402, which is configured to split the swept frequency beam into a signal beam and a local oscillator beam.

[0077] Specifically, the laser light source 401 can be driven by a chirp signal of an optical signal for direct modulation. For example, a driving signal for controlling the laser light source 401 can be input to the laser light source 401 with an intensity that varies with time, so that the laser light source 401 generates and outputs a swept frequency beam, that is, a beam whose frequency varies within a predetermined range. The laser light source 401 may also include a modulator that receives a modulation signal. The modulator may be configured to modulate the light beam based on the modulation signal to generate and output a swept frequency beam, the frequency of which varies within a predetermined range. The laser light source 401 may be a laser source commonly used in FMCW laser radars, and in order to save space, this application will not be described in detail.

The signal beam and the local oscillator beam have the same frequency at any time point, that is, the frequency modulation waveforms of the signal beam and the local oscillator beam are exactly the same. In some examples, the optical splitter 402 can be specifically a specific wavelength coupler (optical splitter) for wavelengths of 445 to 2100 nm, such as an SMC series optical splitter.
