Description

Dual receive channel for pulsed lidar
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of laser measurement, in particular to a high-precision moment identification circuit which is applied to the field of laser ranging.
Technical Field
With the development of laser technology, the technology of laser ranging has tended to be perfect and mature, wherein the pulse laser ranging method is rapidly developed and widely applied. The pulse laser measurement adopts a laser as a light source, the emitted laser is received by the distance meter after being reflected by the measured object, the distance meter records the laser round trip time at the same time, and half of the product of the light speed and the round trip time is the distance between the distance meter and the measured object.
In order to detect the arrival time of a laser echo pulse, a time discrimination circuit is generally used, and the purpose of time discrimination is to convert an analog signal of a laser echo into a digital logic signal having time information. When the amplitude of the input signal meets the set requirement, a trigger signal is generated to convert the analog signal into a digital signal represented by a high-low level.
The main time identification methods at present comprise leading edge time identification, constant ratio time identification and Gao Tongrong resistance time identification; the front edge moment identification circuit has a simple structure, but the accuracy is affected by the echo amplitude, and the threshold value is not set well; constant ratio timing discrimination is not affected by echo amplitude, but when a remote target is measured, echo pulses are weak, the signal to noise ratio is low, corresponding time disturbance can be generated, and therefore accuracy of time discrimination is affected; the identification time point of the Gao Tongrong resistance time identification circuit is generally at the pulse amplitude point, but the time drift is larger; the invention with the application number of 201510200729.8 discloses a research of a double-channel time identification circuit, which has the defects that: the combination of constant ratio time discrimination and leading edge time discrimination cannot greatly improve the time discrimination precision, but only reduces false alarm probability. In order to be able to solve timing errors caused by waveform variations and noise disturbances at the same time, it is necessary to improve and perfect the above-mentioned time discrimination circuit.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide a double-receiving channel of a pulse laser radar, which can effectively avoid drift errors caused by echo amplitude and echo interference, reduce false alarm and false alarm probability, and improve the accuracy of time discrimination, thereby further effectively improving the measurement accuracy of pulse laser ranging.
The invention is realized by adopting the following technical scheme: a dual receiving channel of pulse laser radar comprises a front edge moment identification channel, a Gao Tongrong resistance moment identification channel and a gate circuit; in the front edge moment identification channel, an input signal is added to a positive input end of a threshold comparator, a power supply voltage is added to a negative input end of the threshold comparator through a potentiometer, and the threshold can be adjusted according to the potentiometer; gao Tongrong the time identifying channel, the high-pass filtering times are controllable, the input signal is differentially processed by the high-pass filtering unit and then is added to the positive input end of the high-speed comparator, the externally added comparison voltage is added to the negative input end of the high-speed comparator through the potentiometer, and the state of rotation of the high-speed comparator occurs at the time when the signals of the two input ends are equal; the outputs of the threshold comparator and the high speed comparator are passed through a gate phase.
The beneficial effects of the invention are as follows: the dual receiving channels of the pulse laser radar are adopted, and comprise a front edge moment identification channel and a Gao Tongrong moment identification channel which are combined, so that the arrival moment of a laser echo is obtained and determined together, the moment identification precision is improved, and the measurement false alarm probability is reduced; on the one hand, the front edge moment identification channel can avoid false triggering caused by noise interference superimposed on laser echo at the identification moment by setting a proper threshold value; on the other hand, the Gao Tongrong time identifying channel effectively solves the time play caused by the change of the amplitude of the laser echo pulse, so that the identified time is not influenced by the change of the amplitude of the echo; the invention is suitable for the detection of high-energy narrow pulses and large distance ranges, and can overcome timing errors caused by waveform changes and noise interference.
