Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of radar signal processing, and particularly relates to a linear correction system, method, and storage medium based on Doppler compensation. Background Art

[0002] A rotating mirror type FMCW (Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave) lidar is a lidar system that uses frequency modulated continuous wave technology. It measures the distance and speed of a target by modulating the frequency of the laser and measuring the frequency difference of the echo signal. Traditional lidar systems usually use pulsed lasers and measure the time difference of laser pulses to measure the distance to the target. The FMCW lidar, on the other hand, uses frequency modulated continuous wave technology and measures the change in laser frequency to measure the distance and speed of the target. The rotating mirror type FMCW lidar scans the laser beam by rotating a reflecting mirror or a scanning mirror to obtain three-dimensional information of the target.

[0003] However, the movement of the rotating mirror in the rotating mirror type FMCW lidar will have an impact on the received echo signal in the form of Doppler frequency shift. Doppler frequency shift is caused by the movement of the target. When the laser beam scans a moving target, the frequency of the reflected light on the target changes, resulting in Doppler frequency shift in the received echo signal. Therefore, how to reduce the impact of Doppler frequency shift on the received signal and improve the measurement accuracy and speed is of crucial importance. Summary of the Invention

[0054] Figure 1As an existing FMCW lidar system, in a rotating mirror-based FMCW lidar system, the movement of the rotating mirror will cause the Doppler effect, which will seriously affect the ranging accuracy and the accuracy of speed measurement. To solve this problem, existing calibration methods usually use light rays or static spatial points, select a fixed distance to calibrate the modulation parameters, so as to ensure the linearity and accuracy of static ranging.

[0055] In this context, in order to cope with the influence of the Doppler effect caused by the movement of the rotating mirror on the ranging and speed measurement of the FMCW lidar system, a calibration method needs to be developed. This calibration method needs to be able to identify and compensate for the Doppler frequency shift caused by the movement of the rotating mirror, so as to ensure the ranging accuracy and the accuracy of speed measurement. This calibration method can be based on advanced signal processing algorithms and calibration techniques, and use known static distance points or optical calibration references to calibrate the modulation parameters of the lidar system, so as to eliminate the measurement errors caused by the Doppler effect.

[0056] The development of this background technology will provide important support for the performance improvement of the rotating mirror-based FMCW lidar system, enabling it to more accurately achieve target distance measurement and speed measurement in practical applications. At the same time, the research and implementation of this calibration method will also promote related technologies in the fields of radar and optical measurement, and contribute to the development of the high-precision measurement field.

[0057] In order to illustrate the technical solution of the present application, specific embodiments will be described below.

[0058] Referring to Figure 2 , a block diagram of a linear calibration system based on Doppler compensation provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown. The calibration system includes:

[0059] A scanning component 201, including a laser, is configured to irradiate the modulated laser emitted by the laser to a target to be measured through an emission optical path;

[0060] A receiving component 202 is configured to receive the modulated laser generated by the ranging laser and the reflected laser reflected by the target to be measured;

[0061] A calibration component 203, coupled to the receiving component and the scanning component, is configured to obtain a calibration laser according to the modulated laser and the reflected laser to calibrate the modulated laser of the scanning component; wherein, the calibration component is specifically configured to perform analog-to-digital conversion on the modulated laser and the reflected laser to obtain an initial calibration triangular wave and the original intermediate frequency signal data of the target to be measured, and then convert the original intermediate frequency signal to the complex domain to obtain a complex domain intermediate frequency signal; finally, generate a linear calibration parameter according to the complex domain intermediate frequency signal to calibrate the laser.

[0062] Exemplarily, assume there is a lidar ranging system, which is used to measure the distance to the front obstacle, such as in an autonomous vehicle or a robot. This system mainly includes three parts: a scanning component, a receiving component, and a calibration component.

[0063] Scanning component 201: It includes a laser that can emit modulated laser light. The laser light is directed through the emission optical path towards the target to be measured in the front, such as an obstacle.

[0064] The modulated laser light emitted by the laser may be a continuous or pulsed laser beam, whose frequency, amplitude, or phase can be modulated to carry information.

[0065] Receiving component 202: The receiving component has two main functions: one is to receive the modulated laser light (as a reference signal) generated by the ranging laser, and the other is to receive the reflected laser light reflected from the target to be measured.

[0066] When the modulated laser light irradiates on the obstacle, part of the laser light will be reflected back and captured by the receiving component. This reflected laser light contains the distance information of the obstacle because the propagation time of light is a function of the distance.

[0067] Calibration component 203: The calibration component 203 is connected to the receiving component 202 and the scanning component 201. Its task is to process the received modulated laser light and reflected laser light to calibrate the modulated laser light emitted by the scanning component 201.

[0068] First, the calibration component 203 will perform analog-to-digital conversion on the modulated laser light and the reflected laser light, converting them from analog signals to digital signals. This facilitates subsequent digital signal processing.

[0069] After conversion, the calibration component 203 will obtain an initial calibration triangular wave and the original intermediate-frequency signal data of the target to be measured. This intermediate-frequency signal is the difference signal between the modulated laser light and the reflected laser light, and it contains the distance information of the obstacle.

[0070] Next, the calibration component 203 will convert this original intermediate-frequency signal to the complex domain. In the complex domain, the processing and analysis of signals are usually easier and more intuitive.

[0071] Finally, based on the intermediate-frequency signal in the complex domain, the calibration component 203 will generate linear calibration parameters. These parameters can be used to adjust the output of the laser to ensure that the modulated laser light emitted by it is accurate and reliable. For example, if the system detects that the frequency of the laser output has drifted, the calibration component 203 will generate a calibration parameter to adjust the frequency of the laser to keep it stable.

[0072] Through this process, the lidar ranging system can continuously self-correct to ensure the accuracy and stability of the measurement results, maintaining high performance even in the face of environmental changes or system aging.

[0073] Referring Figure 3 , in an implementable embodiment of the present application, the correction component 203 includes: an analog-to-digital converter 301 and a digital signal processor 302;

[0074] The analog-to-digital converter 301 is coupled to the detector 206 and is used to convert the detected optical wave signal into a digital signal;

[0075] The digital signal processor 302 is used to generate a corrected modulation wave signal based on the digital signal.

[0076] Exemplarily, the correction component 203 is typically used in a lidar system to perform digital signal processing and correction on the optical wave signal received from the detector. Here is an example to illustrate the working process of the correction component 203:

[0077] Suppose there is a lidar system where the detector is responsible for receiving the optical wave signal reflected from the target object. The detector converts the optical wave signal into an analog electrical signal, and then the analog-to-digital converter 301 converts the analog electrical signal into a digital signal.

[0078] The digital signal processor 302 receives these digital signals and processes them according to pre-set algorithms and correction parameters to generate a corrected modulation wave signal. This processing may include operations such as filtering, denoising, correction, and demodulation to ensure that the final modulation wave signal can accurately reflect information such as the distance and speed of the target object.

[0079] Specifically, assume that it is necessary to obtain the distance information of the target object based on the received optical wave signal. The digital signal processor can perform time-domain and frequency-domain analysis on the received digital signals, extract the echo signal characteristics of the target object, and correct these characteristics according to the correction parameters of the system, finally generating an accurate modulation wave signal to provide the distance information of the target object.

[0080] In the embodiment of the present application, the correction component 203 includes an analog-to-digital converter 301 and a digital signal processor 302, which work together to convert the detected optical wave signal into a digital signal and process it to generate a corrected modulation wave signal, thereby providing accurate target information.

[0081] Such as Figure 4 shown, in an implementable embodiment of the present application, the scanning component 201 includes:

[0082] A laser 401 that generates the modulated laser;

[0083] A beam splitter 402 for splitting the modulated laser into two paths;

[0084] An optical circulator 403 receives one path of the modulated laser and emits the modulated laser along a first output optical path, and a target to be distance-measured is disposed on the first output optical path; the first output optical path is the emission optical path;

[0085] A motor scanning device 404 is disposed on the first output optical path and is located between the target to be distance-measured and the optical circulator, and the motor scanning device is rotatable.

[0086] The laser 401 is a device for distance measurement using laser technology. Its function is to determine the distance between the target object and the laser by emitting laser pulses and measuring the time for the laser to return. The rise of automated and intelligent applications has promoted the application of lasers in fields such as autonomous vehicles and drones. The laser is the core component of a lidar system, which is used to generate laser pulses and send them to the target object, then receive the laser pulses reflected by the target, and calculate the distance between the target object and the lidar by measuring the time difference of the laser pulses. The laser 401 is used to generate modulated laser in this application.

[0087] The beam splitter 402 is an optical device mainly used to split an incident light beam into two or more independent light beams, and is usually used in applications such as optical path splitting, interference, detection, and measurement in optical systems. The beam splitter plays an important role in fields such as optical communication, laser measurement, interference instruments, and optical sensors. The beam splitter 402 is used to split the modulated laser into two paths in this application.

[0088] The optical circulator 403 receives one path of the modulated laser and emits the modulated laser along a first output light beam, and a target to be distance-measured is disposed on the first output light beam.

[0089] An optical circulator (Ring Modulator) 403 is a device for optical modulation, mainly used to mutually modulate two optical signals with different frequencies to generate new optical signals. The optical circulator 403 usually consists of an optical waveguide ring and a modulation device. By introducing a modulation signal into the optical circulator, modulation and frequency modulation of the optical signal can be achieved. The optical circulator 403 has important applications in fields such as optical communication, optical sensing, and optical signal processing. The optical circulator 403 is used to receive one path of the modulated laser and emit the modulated laser along a first output light beam, and a target to be distance-measured is disposed on the first output light beam in this application.

[0090] The motor scanning device 404 is usually installed in the optical system to control the direction and position of optical elements or optical devices. The purpose of installing the motor scanning device between the target to be distance-measured and the circulator 403 is to achieve the scanning and orientation of optical signals, or for optical imaging or measurement. In this application, the motor scanning device is arranged on the first output optical path, and is located between the target to be distance-measured and the circulator 403, and the motor scanning device 404 is rotatable.

[0091] As Figure 5 shown, in an implementable embodiment of this application, the receiving component 202 includes:

[0092] A coupler 501, which is coupled to the second output optical path of the circulator 403 and is coupled to the other optical path of the beam splitter 402;

[0093] A detector 502, the incident optical path of the detector 502 is coupled to the output optical path of the coupler 501, and outputs the modulated laser and the reflected laser to the correction component 203.

[0094] The coupler 501 is a device for transmitting optical signals from one optical waveguide to another. Its function is to effectively transmit optical signals from one waveguide to another, and is usually used in fields such as optical devices, optical communication systems, and optical sensors. In this application, the coupler is coupled to the second output line of the circulator and is coupled to the other optical path of the beam splitter.

[0095] The detector 502 is a device for detecting and measuring light, radiation, particles or other physical quantities. Its function is to convert the input signal into a measurable electrical signal, so as to realize the detection, measurement and analysis of the input signal. In this application, the detector is coupled to the output optical path of the coupler, and converts the optical signal of the output optical path of the coupler into a measurable electrical signal.

[0096] In summary, the receiving component 202 includes a coupler 501 and a detector 502, and these components have the advantages of high sensitivity, wide spectral response, low noise, high stability, easy integration, easy adjustment, low power consumption and high reliability.

[0097] The correction component 203 is coupled to the detector 502 and is configured to send the corrected modulation wave signal to the ranging laser to correct the modulation laser generated by the ranging laser. Among them, the correction component 203 is coupled to the detector. The correction component 203 may include optical elements, electronic elements, and a control system, and is used to correct and modulate the signal output by the detector 502. The detector 502 is usually used to detect the received optical signal and convert it into an electrical signal. The correction component 203 processes the electrical signal to achieve signal correction and modulation, and then sends the corrected modulation wave signal to the ranging laser. In addition, the laser 401 usually modulates the laser, that is, a modulation signal is added to the laser signal for subsequent processing and analysis of the laser signal. Different modulation methods can be used for modulation, such as frequency modulation, pulse modulation, etc. In the above background, the correction component 203 is coupled to the detector 502 and is configured to send the corrected modulation wave signal to the laser 401, which can achieve correction and modulation of the modulation laser generated by the laser 401. The correction component 203 can process the signal output by the detector 502 to obtain the required modulation wave signal and send it to the laser 401. After receiving the corrected modulation wave signal, the laser 401 can generate a corresponding modulation laser signal and is used for ranging and target recognition applications in the lidar system. Generally speaking, the correction component 203 is coupled to the detector 502 and is used to correct and modulate the modulation laser generated by the laser 401. It is an important part of the lidar system, which can achieve precise control and processing of the laser signal, thereby improving the performance and reliability of the lidar system. This application can achieve precise distance measurement through this system.

[0098] In an implementable embodiment of the present application, the detector 401 may be a balanced detector.

[0099] A balanced detector is a detector commonly used in optoelectronic detection systems. Compared with an unbalanced detector, it has the following advantages: Strong anti-interference ability: The balanced detector can resist optical and electromagnetic interference in the environment because it has a certain ability to cancel interference signals in the environment. High signal-to-noise ratio: The balanced detector can perform differential operations on the output signals of the two detection units to cancel the noise of the detector itself and improve the quality of the signal. Wide linear range: The balanced detector has a good linear response within a certain range and can measure the intensity of the input optical signal more accurately. Suitable for differential measurement: The differential output of the balanced detector can be used for differential measurement, which has great advantages for some applications that require differential signal processing. Generally speaking, the balanced detector has the advantages of strong anti-interference ability, high signal-to-noise ratio, and wide linear range in the optoelectronic detection system, and is suitable for many application scenarios that require high-performance detectors. This application uses a balanced detector to further improve the ranging accuracy of this application.

[0100] In an implementable embodiment of the present application, the system further includes: a collimator, which is disposed on the first outgoing optical path and is located between the circulator and the motor scanner. The collimator plays a role in improving the system accuracy and protecting the optical system in the optical system. In the present application, the ranging accuracy is further improved through the collimator.

[0101] Figure 6 Schematic diagram of the system structure provided by the present application. Refer to Figure 6 , the laser 401 sends the modulated triangular wave signal to the beam splitter 402. This signal carries ranging information. The beam splitter 402 divides this signal into two paths and sends them to the circulator 403 and the coupler 501 respectively. The circulator 403 transmits this signal to the collimator. The collimator ensures the accuracy and stability of the laser beam and transmits the signal to the motor scanning device 404. The motor scanning device 404 drives the laser beam to scan in all directions while correcting the spatial light fixed length to obtain the distance signal of the target to be measured, and feeds the distance signal back to the circulator 403 through the collimator. The circulator 403 feeds the distance signal back to the coupler 501. The coupler 501 couples out the received signal from the main optical fiber and sends it to the detector 502. The detector 502 converts the received signal into an electrical signal and sends it to the analog-to-digital converter 301. The analog-to-digital converter 301 converts the electrical signal into a digital signal and sends it to the digital signal processor 302. The digital signal processor 302 processes and analyzes this digital signal, extracts the distance value of the target to be measured according to the above ranging method, compensates and corrects the error, generates a corrected triangular wave signal and sends it to the laser 401. The laser 401 performs waveform modulation according to this corrected triangular wave signal to improve the accuracy and stability of the ranging system.

[0102] Figure 7 Schematic flowchart of a linear correction method based on Doppler compensation provided by an embodiment of the present application. For the sake of convenience of description, only the parts related to the embodiment of the present application are shown.

[0103] S701, obtain the initial correction triangular wave of the laser and the original intermediate frequency signal data of the target to be measured;

[0104] S702, convert the original intermediate frequency signal to the complex domain to obtain the intermediate frequency signal in the complex domain;

[0105] S703, generate linear correction parameters according to the intermediate frequency signal in the complex domain to correct the laser.

[0106] Exemplarily, assume that the calibration of the lidar system is being carried out, and the operations are performed according to the steps described above:

[0107] First, obtain the original data from the laser and the target to be measured. This includes the laser pulse signal emitted by the laser and the signal reflected from the target. Next, convert the original intermediate-frequency signal reflected from the target into an intermediate-frequency signal in the complex domain. This is achieved through some signal processing algorithms and digital signal processing techniques, such as the fast Fourier transform (FFT), etc. Based on the intermediate-frequency signal in the complex domain, perform signal processing and calculations to generate parameters for linearly correcting the laser. This involves analyzing and calculating aspects such as the frequency, amplitude, and phase of the signal to generate appropriate correction parameters.

[0108] Specifically, first, in the first step, download the initial correction triangular wave; then, the ADC collects intermediate-frequency signal data {a1, a2, a3, ……, a n}. Next, perform a Hilbert transform on the intermediate-frequency signal data to transform the data into the complex domain: {a1 + b 1*j , a2 + b 2*j , a3 + b 3*j , ……, a n + b n*j}, where a represents the real part and b represents the imaginary part.

[0109] Perform a phase calculation based on the Hilbert transform complex-domain ADC data to obtain a phase sequence:

[0110] Phase_i = a i + b i*j / (a (i-1) + b (i-1)*j );

[0111] {phase_1, phase_2, phase_3, ……, phase_N};

[0112] Then, based on the sampling frequency FSP, obtain the interval time t of the sampling points, and calculate the time-frequency curve of the intermediate-frequency data freq_i = phase_i / t. Finally, perform a fluctuation analysis on the obtained time-frequency sequence freq_i. If it meets the standard deviation requirement, it is okay; if not, adjust the correction parameters according to the characteristics of the time-frequency curve.

[0113] Using the known length of the delay optical fiber, calculate the frequency of the collected intermediate-frequency signal according to the laser modulation period and modulation bandwidth, and convert it into a distance. The distance-frequency point equivalent formula is as follows:

[0114]

[0115] where R is the ranging value, B is the modulation bandwidth, C is the light flight speed, and T is the modulation period length.

[0116] Specific current preconditions: modulation period 100KHz, modulation bandwidth 2GHz. Frequency points at a distance of 30m

[0117] The above process involves the conversion from raw data to an intermediate-frequency signal in the complex domain, and generating parameters for linear correction of the laser based on the intermediate-frequency signal in the complex domain. The entire correction process helps the lidar system measure the target distance information more accurately.

[0118] In an implementable embodiment of the present application, the converting the original intermediate-frequency signal to the complex domain to obtain an intermediate-frequency signal in the complex domain includes:

[0119] Performing a Hilbert transform on the original intermediate-frequency signal data to convert the original intermediate-frequency signal to the complex domain and obtain an intermediate-frequency signal in the complex domain.

[0120] Exemplarily, assume there is a segment of original intermediate-frequency signal data, which is converted to an intermediate-frequency signal in the complex domain for further signal processing and analysis. Operate according to the steps described above:

[0121] First, perform a Hilbert transform on the original intermediate-frequency signal data. The Hilbert transform is a commonly used signal processing technique that can convert a signal in the real domain to a signal in the complex domain. The implementation of the Hilbert transform can use digital signal processing algorithms, such as the fast Fourier transform (FFT), etc.

[0122] After the Hilbert transform, the complex-domain representation of the original intermediate-frequency signal is obtained. This intermediate-frequency signal in the complex domain contains the amplitude and phase information of the original signal and can be used for further signal processing and analysis.

[0123] Next, perform various signal processing and calculations on the intermediate-frequency signal in the complex domain, such as filtering, frequency-domain analysis, phase demodulation, etc. The above processing and calculations can extract useful information in the signal, such as the distance, speed, direction, etc. of the target.

[0124] Generally speaking, this process involves converting the original intermediate-frequency signal to an intermediate-frequency signal in the complex domain for further signal processing and analysis. The Hilbert transform is a key step in it, which can convert a signal in the real domain to a signal in the complex domain, thus containing more information.

[0125] As Figure 8 shown, in an implementable embodiment of the present application, the generating linear correction parameters according to the intermediate-frequency signal in the complex domain includes:

[0126] S801, performing a phase calculation on the intermediate-frequency signal in the complex domain to obtain a phase sequence;

[0127] S802. Calculate the time-frequency curve of the intermediate-frequency data according to the sampling frequency and the phase sequence;

[0128] S803. Conduct a fluctuation analysis on the time-frequency curve. If the fluctuation amount is lower than the preset standard deviation, the correction parameter is the parameter of the initial correction triangular wave;

[0129] S804. If the volatility is higher than the standard deviation, update the correction parameter according to the characteristics of the time-frequency curve.

[0130] Exemplarily, assume there is a lidar system that emits laser pulses and receives echo signals. The intermediate-frequency signal data {a1, a2, a3, ……, a n} is collected using an ADC.

[0131] First, calculate the phase of the intermediate-frequency signal in the complex domain to obtain the phase sequence. Assume the complex-domain intermediate-frequency signal data is {a1 + b 1j , a2 + b 2j , a3 + b 3j , ……, a n + b nj}. Calculate the phase sequence Phase_i = atan(b i / a i ). In this way, we obtain the phase sequence.

[0132] Then, calculate the time-frequency curve of the intermediate-frequency data according to the sampling frequency and the phase sequence. Assume the sampling frequency is FSP, obtain the interval time t of the sampling points, and then use this interval time to calculate the time-frequency curve freq_i = Phase_i / t. In this way, a sequence of time-frequency curves is obtained.

[0133] Next, conduct a fluctuation analysis on the time-frequency curve. If the fluctuation amount is lower than the preset standard deviation, the correction parameter is the parameter of the initial correction triangular wave. Assume the standard deviation of the time-frequency curve is calculated. If the standard deviation is lower than the preset threshold, it indicates that the fluctuation is small, and the correction parameter is set to the parameter of the initial correction triangular wave.

[0134] Finally, if the volatility is higher than the standard deviation, update the correction parameter according to the characteristics of the time-frequency curve. If the standard deviation is higher than the preset threshold, it indicates that the fluctuation is large. According to the characteristics of the time-frequency curve, such as the change law of frequency, the change law of phase, etc., update the correction parameter so that the fluctuation of the time-frequency curve meets the requirements.

[0135] This processing flow deeply analyzes the intermediate-frequency signal of the lidar system and adjusts the parameters according to the analysis results to obtain more accurate information such as distance and speed.

[0136] Such as Figure 9As shown, in the implementable embodiments of the present application, updating the correction parameter according to the characteristics of the time-frequency curve includes:

[0137] S901, analyzing the characteristics of the time-frequency curve to generate a Doppler frequency shift result;

[0138] S902, updating the correction parameter according to the Doppler frequency shift result.

[0139] Exemplarily, assume there is a radar system that detects the movement of a target object by transmitting and receiving signals. A lidar is used to measure the distance and speed of the target object. During this process, intermediate frequency data signals are collected and subjected to time-frequency analysis to obtain a time-frequency curve.

[0140] Now assume that the time-frequency curve is analyzed and it is found that it contains the Doppler frequency shift information of the target object. The Doppler frequency shift is the frequency change caused by the movement of the target object. By analyzing the characteristics of the time-frequency curve, the Doppler frequency shift result of the target object can be obtained.

[0141] Specifically, assume that through time-frequency analysis, the Doppler frequency shift of the target object is found to be f_d. This frequency shift can reflect the speed information of the target object. Now it is necessary to update the correction parameter according to this Doppler frequency shift result. For example, the transmission frequency or reception frequency of the radar system can be adjusted so that the received signal can more accurately reflect the speed information of the target object.

[0142] By analyzing the characteristics of the time-frequency curve, extracting the Doppler frequency shift result, and then updating the correction parameter according to this result, the speed information of the target object can be obtained more accurately, thereby improving the performance and accuracy of the radar system for ranging.
