The invention discloses a differential
processing algorithm for
laser pulse
ranging echoes, which is characterized in that the echoes of
laser pulse signals are differentiated through a mathematical method, so that an extreme point, namely the peak moment of the echoes, is solved. According to the differential
processing algorithm of the
laser pulse
ranging echo, the extreme point is obtained by differentiating the
Gaussian signal of the time t. The change of the intensity of the echo does not cause the change of the extreme point moment, i.e., the t0 moment is not changed, so that the method fundamentally eliminates the moment discrimination error
delta t of the
leading edge discrimination method, naturally does not need to be optimized to obtain the dual-threshold
leading edge discrimination method, and also avoids the problems of other methods in use. When the echo size changes, the peak moment can still be accurately identified, the
drift error is greatly eliminated, in the pulse
laser ranging echo moment identification method, the accuracy is far higher than that of other methods,
linear fitting and other secondary error compensation are not needed, the
engineering complexity is reduced, the
workload is reduced, and the adaptability is improved.
