Description

Polarization diversity dual-channel speed measuring and distance measuring coherent laser radar measuring method and device
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of laser ranging and speed measurement, in particular to a polarization diversity dual-channel speed measurement and ranging coherent laser radar measurement method and device
Background
The environment sensing technology is an important component of the autonomous driving platform, and is used for sensing the surrounding environment by using sensors such as a laser radar and a millimeter wave radar and providing decision basis for the autonomous driving platform. The laser radar technology, one of the key core technologies, can effectively provide information required by a decision and control system of an autonomous driving platform, and has become an indispensable sensor for autonomous driving environment perception at present. The distance and the speed of the target are important information for judging the external environment by the autonomous driving platform, and are indispensable parts for realizing intelligent driving in a complex dynamic environment. The laser radar is used for realizing synchronous measurement of the target distance and the target speed, has high real-time performance and measurement precision, is an urgent need for autonomous driving environment perception, and has important significance for improving the perception capability of an autonomous driving platform to the surrounding environment and enhancing the intelligent decision-making capability.
The current commercialized laser radar generally adopts a single pulse laser Time of Flight (Time of Flight) ranging method, has the advantages of simple structure and mature technology, has the defects that only the distance information of a target can be provided, and the speed is obtained by differential calculation according to the change of distance measurement data. The conventional speed measurement method cannot obtain correct speed information due to the discontinuity of distance, and the obtained speed data has a very large error and lacks real-time performance.
One of the prior arts (see zhou yan, wang chong, liu yanping, xia hai yun, coherent wind lidar research progress and application, progress in laser and optoelectronics, 2019, vol. 56, number 2, 020001) a coherent wind doppler lidar emits a laser pulse with a certain width, a pulse window covers one period of a doppler signal, and doppler signal frequencies at different distances are obtained through fourier transform, so as to analyze the speed of a target.
The chirp frequency modulation continuous wave laser radar performs linear modulation on the frequency of transmitted laser, coherent reception is performed on echo signals and local oscillation signals, distance measurement of a target is achieved by acquiring heterodyne frequency, and Doppler velocity measurement is achieved by waveform modulation. This is the most widely used laser radar system for synchronous speed and distance measurement at present, and is typically the doppler laser radar in the aloat project of NASA in the united states (see f, Amzajerdian, d, Pierrottet, l, petway, et al, Lidar systems for precision navigation and safety networking systems, NASA, 2011.) and can realize high-precision spatial target synchronous distance and speed measurement by adopting optical coherence technology, isosceles triangle wave linear frequency modulation technology, and fiber optics technology.
In order to further improve the accuracy of ranging and velocity measurement, the Langley Research Center of NASA improves the modulation waveform into symmetrical isosceles trapezoid chirp (see f. Amzajerdian, d. Pierrottet, l. petway, et al. Lidar sensors for autonomous and halyard amplitude, aiaa Space Conference Proceedings, 2013.) including up-conversion, fixed frequency and down-conversion, doppler velocity can be obtained in the fixed frequency stage, the data loss caused by the fact that the frequency obtained in the up-conversion and down-conversion stages is very close to zero can be solved, and the measurement ambiguity in some cases can be reduced. However, the chirp frequency modulation continuous wave laser radar usually adopts an external cavity tunable laser to generate linear frequency modulation laser pulse, and is limited by the hardware condition of the laser, so that the cost is very high; the Pulse Repetition Frequency (PRF) is severely limited given the large tuning range available to achieve high range resolution; the frequency modulation nonlinearity brought by large-range frequency sweep is still an unsolved problem, and the accuracy of speed measurement and distance measurement is seriously influenced.
Wu army et al propose a dual-frequency dual-modulation dual-local-oscillator symmetric triangular chirp coherent ranging and speed measuring laser radar system, which expands the range of the symmetric triangular chirp ranging and speed measuring system and has high detection repetition frequency (in the fourth of the prior art, Wu army, Hongguang, He Zhi Ping, Shurong, a large-ranging dynamic range high-repetition frequency coherent ranging and speed measuring laser radar (I) system and performance, infrared and millimeter wave academic report, 2014, Vol.33, No.6, 680-. But greatly increases the complexity of the system and influences the application prospect.
Chirp amplitude modulation continuous wave lidar makes linear frequency modulation on the amplitude of transmitted laser, mixes the delayed chirp modulated on the echo intensity with the initial chirp during transmission to obtain a difference frequency proportional to the echo delay, and can realize synchronous detection of the distance and speed of the target through coherent reception (five in the prior art, howling, surging, rong, and shurong, and zero difference detection of distance and speed by chirp amplitude modulation lidar, optics report, 2011, vol.31, No.6, 0606002). Because the chirp signal is modulated on the laser intensity instead of being directly modulated on the laser frequency, the technical difficulty is low, the realization is easy, and the linearity can be better; the distance information of the target is reflected on the amplitude of the laser echo, the speed information is reflected on the frequency domain of the laser echo, and the interference of the two kinds of information is avoided optically. But limits the furthest detectable range of chirped amplitude modulated lidar due to attenuation of the transmitted laser energy caused by modulation in amplitude. Moreover, the pulse repetition frequency of the chirped amplitude modulation continuous wave lidar is still limited, and the range ambiguity caused by high repetition frequency cannot be eliminated.
The Complex optical field coherent laser radar adopts an electro-optic in-phase-quadrature modulator at a transmitting end to realize Complex optical field modulation of carrier suppression, can obtain flexible frequency band modulation, measures speed through a continuous wave without modulation, and measures distance through linear frequency modulation, thereby realizing high-precision target speed and distance synchronous measurement (sixth of the prior art, Shuang Gao, MaguriceO' Sullivan, and Rongqin Hui, Complex-optical-field Lidar system for ranging and vector velocity measurement, Optics Express, 2012, Vol.20, No.23, 25867 and 25875.). The modulation can be regarded as an improvement of the chirped frequency modulation continuous wave laser radar, the requirement on laser source hardware is reduced, but the modulation scheme is complex, the realization difficulty is high, and the application prospect is limited.
Maureson and the like insert a periodic code into a pseudo-random code to form a modulation code, the amplitude of a laser radar transmitting signal is modulated by using the modulation code, and a receiving end measures a target distance by calculating a correlation function of a target echo signal and a local modulation code on one hand, and analyzes the speed of a Doppler frequency measurement target by sampling a heterodyne signal of a periodic code time slot on the other hand, thereby realizing synchronous measurement of the target distance and the speed (seven in the prior art, Xuesong Mao, Daisuke Inoue, HiroyukiMatsubara, and Manabu Kagami, demodulation of in-car Doppler laser radar 1.55 μm for range and speed measurement, IEEE Transactions on Intelligent transport Systems, 2013, VOL. 14, number 2, 599-. However, the modulation code is formed by inserting a pseudo random code into a periodic code, which reduces the correlation of the pseudo random code on the one hand and has a limited range for speed measurement on the other hand. In order to improve the correlation of modulation codes and expand the range of velocity measurement, Mao Xuezong and the like propose to perform amplitude correction on Doppler signals and then use a non-equidistant sampling Fourier spectrum analysis method to obtain Doppler frequency. However, the signal-to-noise ratio of the algorithm is high, the head position of the doppler signal needs to be determined through the distance calculation process to ensure that the sampling sequence is the doppler signal mixed with noise instead of pure noise, the process is complex, the calculation amount is large, and the speed measurement accuracy is limited.
In conclusion, the existing laser radar technology has the problems of low distance resolution and limited speed measurement precision, and the whole system is complex and has high operation difficulty, so that the application prospect is limited.
