The invention discloses a
pulse compression double-
optical comb frequency modulation continuous wave laser ranging device and method, the device comprises an FMCW
light source, a
beam splitter, a detection light channel, a reference light channel, a beam combiner and a
processing module, the FMCW
light source outputs bidirectional linear frequency sweeping
laser with the frequency sweeping bandwidth B and the frequency sweeping period 2T, and the bidirectional linear frequency sweeping
laser is divided into detection light and reference light through the
beam splitter. The detection optical channel, the first
optical comb generating the comb tooth interval of fR, the reference optical channel and the second
optical comb generating the comb tooth interval of fR +
delta fR are used, two paths of signals are combined through the beam combiner and then input to the photoelectric
detector to generate beat frequency signals, the
processing module carries out rear-end
data processing on the beat frequency signals,
time domain signal splicing is achieved through the coherence of the double optical combs, and
time domain signals are obtained. And the
ranging precision is improved. According to the invention, the
pulse compression technology is used to reduce the duty ratio of the detection light pulse and improve the
ranging resolution; meanwhile, beat frequency signals are generated through the double-optical comb technology,
time domain signal splicing is achieved through coherence between different comb teeth, the frequency sweeping bandwidth is equivalently improved, and the distance measuring precision is further improved.
