Technical Field

Detailed Description
The following detailed description of specific embodiments of the present disclosure is provided in connection with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating the present disclosure, are given by way of illustration and explanation only, not limitation.
Fig. 1 is a block diagram illustrating a lidar according to an exemplary embodiment. As shown in fig. 1, the laser radar 100 may include: a control unit 101, a laser transmitter 102 and a receiving unit 103. The control unit 101 may be connected to the laser transmitter 102, and configured to control the laser transmitter 102 to transmit the first laser beam and the second laser beam to the object 120 to be measured as shown in fig. 2 at preset time intervals.
The receiving unit 103 may be configured to receive a plurality of light beams, and process each received light beam to obtain a voltage signal corresponding to a target light beam, where the plurality of light beams at least include a first echo light beam obtained by reflecting a first laser light beam by a measured object, and a second echo light beam obtained by reflecting a second laser light beam by the measured object. The target beam is a beam that meets a predetermined beam condition.
In the present disclosure, the preset time interval may be preset or may be a default empirical value. As shown in fig. 2, the control unit 101 of the laser radar 100 controls the laser transmitter 102 to transmit the first laser beam and the second laser beam to the object 120 at preset time intervals, that is, the laser transmitter 102 is controlled to transmit the first laser beam first and then transmit the second laser beam after the preset time intervals. The first laser beam and the second laser beam are reflected by the object 120 to be measured onto the laser radar 100 and received by the receiving unit 103. In addition, the light beam received by the receiving unit 103 may include a light beam emitted by a laser radar of the same model mounted on another vehicle, which is an interference light beam. Therefore, the light beam received by the receiving unit 103 of the laser radar 100 may include not only the first echo light beam obtained by reflecting the first laser light beam by the object 120 to be measured and the second echo light beam obtained by reflecting the second laser light beam by the object 120 to be measured, but also the above-mentioned interference light beam.
The receiving unit 103 may process each received light beam to obtain a voltage signal corresponding to the target light beam. In the present disclosure, the target beam is a beam that meets a preset beam condition. The receiving unit 103 may screen out a target light beam according to a preset light beam condition, and obtain a voltage signal corresponding to the target light beam through photoelectric conversion.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the beam condition may include a beam wavelength being within a preset wavelength range. In this case, as shown in fig. 2, the receiving unit 103 may include: a filter 1031, which filter 1031 may be used to filter each received light beam to filter out light beams having wavelengths not within said wavelength range.
In the present disclosure, the filter 1031 may be, for example, an infrared narrow band filter. The filtering of the received light beams by the laser radar 100 is mainly to filter out ambient light in a non-local wavelength range and prevent interference, but does not affect the light beams in the local wavelength range, and the light beams can continue to propagate through the filter 1031. Thus, at least both the first echo beam wavelength and the second echo beam will continue to propagate through the filter 1031.
In addition, as shown in fig. 2, the receiving unit 103 may further include a photoelectric converter 1032, which may be configured to perform photoelectric conversion on the light beam filtered by the filter 1031 and having a wavelength within a preset wavelength range to obtain a corresponding voltage signal.
In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the beam condition may further include that a voltage value of a voltage signal corresponding to the beam is less than or equal to a preset voltage threshold, and the voltage threshold may be a voltage value of a voltage signal corresponding to the returned beam when laser radar 100 is able to detect the farthest distance. In this case, as shown in fig. 2, the receiving unit 103 may further include a filter circuit 1033 connected to the photoelectric converter 1032 for filtering the voltage signal obtained by the photoelectric converter 1032 to filter out the voltage signal having a voltage value greater than the voltage threshold. Thus, after two filtering processes, most of the interference signals are filtered by the receiving unit 103, and the voltage signal corresponding to the target light beam is finally obtained.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the control unit 101 may be further connected to the receiving unit 103 for determining a flight time of each target beam, where the flight time of the target beam is a time difference between a time when the voltage signal corresponding to the target beam is acquired by the receiving unit 103 and a time when the first laser beam is emitted by the laser emitter 102. For example, the control unit 101 may include a TDC (time-to-digital converter) in which each timer is triggered to start timing when the laser transmitter 102 emits the first laser beam. After the receiving unit 103 acquires a voltage signal, the receiving unit 103 may trigger one of timers of the TDC to stop timing, where a time length from timing start to timing end of the timer is a flight time of the target beam corresponding to the voltage signal.
Next, the control unit 101 is configured to determine a flight time corresponding to the first laser beam and/or a flight time corresponding to the second laser beam from the determined flight times according to the time interval.
Theoretically, the time of flight of the first laser beam and the second laser beam should differ by the time interval described above. Therefore, the control unit 101 may make a difference between two determined times of flight and compare it with the time interval, and may determine which difference between two times of flight is equal to the time interval. Since the emission time of the first laser beam is earlier than the emission time of the second laser beam, the flight time of the first laser beam is smaller than the flight time of the second laser beam. In this way, the control unit 101 may determine that the smaller of the two flight times having the difference in the time interval is the flight time corresponding to the first laser beam, and the larger is the flight time corresponding to the second laser beam.
The above process of determining the time-of-flight for the first laser beam and the time-of-flight for the second laser beam is explained below by taking an interference beam as an example.
There are three possible cases of the disturbance light beam, as shown in fig. 3A to 3C, respectively. In FIG. 3A, the interfering beam appears before the first echo beam, in FIG. 3B, the interfering beam appears between the first and second echo beams, and in FIG. 3C, the interfering beam appears after the second echo beam.
Since three light beams are received, the control unit 101 may obtain the flight times corresponding to the three light beams, and the three flight times are respectively recorded as t according to the sequence of the time from the morning to the evening0、t1And t2. The control unit 101 performs a difference on each pair of the signals to obtain three time differences T1、T2And T3As shown in equation (1):
Figure BDA0001124675410000081
the three time differences are compared with the time interval Δ T described above, respectively. If T1 ≠ Δ T, T2 ≠ Δ T, and T3 ≠ Δ T, it is said that T0、t1The time of flight corresponding to the first laser beam and the time of flight, t, corresponding to the second laser beam2Corresponding is the interference beam, as in the case shown in fig. 3C.
If T1 ≠ Δ T, T2 ≠ Δ T, and T3 ≠ Δ T, it is determined that T1、t2The time of flight corresponding to the first laser beam and the time of flight, t, corresponding to the second laser beam0Corresponding is the interference beam, as in the case shown in fig. 3A.
If T1 ≠ Δ T, T2 ≠ Δ T, and T3 ═ Δ T, it indicates T0、t2The time of flight corresponding to the first laser beam and the time of flight, t, corresponding to the second laser beam1Corresponding is the interference beam, as in the case shown in fig. 3B.
After determining the flight times of the first laser beam and the second laser beam, the control unit 101 may determine the distance between the laser radar 100 and the object 120 to be measured according to the flight time corresponding to the first laser beam and/or the flight time corresponding to the second laser beam.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the control unit 101 may determine the distance between the laser radar 100 and the measured object 120 according to the determined flight time of the first laser beam by the following formula (2):
Figure BDA0001124675410000091
wherein S is the distance between the laser radar and the measured object; c is the speed of light; t is the time of flight of the first laser beam.
Alternatively, in another embodiment of the present disclosure, the control unit 101 may determine the distance between the laser radar 100 and the measured object 120 according to the determined flight time of the second laser beam by the following formula (3):
Figure BDA0001124675410000092
where τ is the time of flight of the second laser beam.
Alternatively, in another embodiment of the present disclosure, after determining the distance between the laser radar and the measured object according to the flight time of the first laser beam and determining the distance between the laser radar and the measured object according to the flight time of the second laser beam, the control unit 101 may process (e.g., weight average) the two distances to obtain the final distance between the laser radar and the measured object, respectively.
The technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the disclosure can have the following beneficial effects: the method comprises the steps of emitting a first laser beam and a second laser beam to a measured object at preset time intervals, processing each received laser beam to screen out a target beam meeting preset beam conditions, then determining the flight time of each target beam, and distinguishing a self beam and an interference beam by combining the time intervals, so that the calculation error of the distance between a laser radar and the measured object caused by the interference beam is avoided. Through above-mentioned technical scheme, not only can filter the interference light beam of the emission of the same model laser radar who is installed on by other vehicles to can accurately calculate the distance between laser radar and the measured object, promote laser radar's interference killing feature and detection precision.
