S102: and carrying out Fourier transform on the reflected echo to obtain a frequency spectrum signal corresponding to the reflected echo.
Wherein the spectrum signal comprises: a plurality of subcarriers, each subcarrier corresponding to a frequency. In an embodiment of the present application, the Fourier transform may be implemented by selecting a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), but a specific selection of the Fourier transform may be designed according to a user requirement, and is not limited to the above embodiment. The received reflection echoes are denoted by x (n), and n is the time number 1, 2, 3 … of the sampling point. The spectrum signal corresponding to each reflected echo after FFT can be expressed as follows:

where x (k) is a spectrum signal corresponding to the reflected echo, and k is the subcarrier number 1, 2, 3 … of the spectrum. N is the length of FFT, is a positive integer greater than 0, and may be greater than or equal to the number of samples corresponding to the time of flight of the farthest detection distance of the laser radar, N represents the time index of the reflected echo signal, and may be any positive integer of 1 and 2 … … N, and j is an imaginary unit, that is, j is equal to-1. In one embodiment of the present application, N is an integer power of 2 for operation timeliness of the transformation unit, but the specific N setting may be designed according to user needs, and is not limited to the above-described embodiment.
S103: and optimizing each subcarrier according to the preset frequency spectrum optimization coefficient corresponding to each subcarrier to obtain each optimized subcarrier.
In an embodiment of the present application, the criterion of the preset spectrum optimization coefficient is a subcarrier signal-to-noise ratio criterion, that is, in a plurality of subcarriers, the subcarrier with a larger signal-to-noise ratio has a larger corresponding preset spectrum optimization coefficient, so as to enhance a signal; the smaller the signal-to-noise ratio of the sub-carrier is, the smaller the corresponding preset spectrum optimization coefficient is, so as to suppress noise and interference, and such optimization setting can achieve the effects of enhancing signals and suppressing noise and interference.

The method comprises the steps of firstly finding effective echo signals in a transformed time domain waveform according to a time domain waveform matching algorithm, then extracting flight time and distance by using an interpolation algorithm, and then calculating to obtain the distance between a target object to be measured and a laser radar by using a preset distance measuring algorithm to realize distance measurement of the target object.
The time domain waveform matching algorithm is to process the transformed time domain waveform, find the pulse with the maximum amplitude in the time domain waveform, and compare the pulse with the maximum amplitude with the transmitted pulse, thereby extracting an effective echo signal. The interpolation algorithm is to process the waveform of the extracted effective echo signal and interpolate between adjacent sampling points to obtain higher time resolution, and finally obtain the distance between the target object to be measured and the laser radar.
By adopting the signal processing method of the laser radar, after Fourier transformation is carried out on the reflection echo, each subcarrier of the frequency spectrum signal corresponding to the obtained reflection echo is optimized according to the corresponding preset frequency spectrum optimization coefficient, each subcarrier is optimized, each optimized subcarrier is obtained, inverse Fourier transformation is carried out on the frequency spectrum signals of a plurality of optimized subcarriers, and then according to the time domain waveform after transformation, the preset time domain waveform matching algorithm and the preset interpolation algorithm are adopted in sequence for processing, so that the distance between the laser radar and the target object is obtained. The processing mode optimizes the received reflection echo, enhances signals, inhibits noise and interference and the like, so that effective signals can be recovered under the condition that the reflection echo signals are submerged by the noise or the interference, and the ranging range of the laser radar is prolonged.
On the basis of the signal processing method of the laser radar shown in fig. 1, an implementation example of the signal processing method of the laser radar may also be provided in the embodiments of the present application. Fig. 3 is a schematic flowchart of a signal processing method of a lidar according to another embodiment of the present disclosure, and as shown in fig. 3, S103 may include:
s106: and optimizing each subcarrier according to the product of the preset spectrum optimization coefficient corresponding to each subcarrier and the amplitude of each subcarrier to obtain each optimized subcarrier.
In an implementation process, the following formula may be used to optimize each subcarrier according to a preset spectrum optimization coefficient as follows:
Y(k)=X(k)·c(k)
wherein, c (k) is a spectrum optimization coefficient, which is a group of complex numbers, each subcarrier corresponds to a spectrum optimization coefficient, and the spectrum optimization coefficients of the subcarriers may be the same and may be different; y (k) is each subcarrier after optimization.
Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the obtaining manner of the preset spectrum optimization coefficient may include the following two possible implementation manners:
the first method is as follows: and determining a preset frequency spectrum optimization coefficient corresponding to the frequency of each subcarrier as a preset frequency spectrum optimization coefficient corresponding to each subcarrier according to the frequency of each subcarrier and the corresponding relation between the preset carrier frequency and the frequency spectrum optimization coefficient.
In this way, the spectral optimization coefficients are measured in advance, and only when the subcarriers are optimized, the corresponding spectral optimization coefficients are read based on the frequencies of the subcarriers. In an embodiment of the present application, the lidar further includes a memory, and the spectrum optimization coefficients and the corresponding relationship between the preset carrier frequency and the spectrum optimization coefficients are stored in an internal memory of the lidar. Of course, it may also be stored in an external memory, which is not limited by this application. The processor of the laser radar or the processing device connected with the laser radar can acquire the preset frequency spectrum optimization coefficient corresponding to the current subcarrier frequency in the preset memory according to the corresponding relation between the preset carrier frequency and the frequency spectrum optimization coefficient after acquiring the frequency of each subcarrier.
The second method comprises the following steps: determining a signal-to-noise ratio of each subcarrier; and calculating a preset spectrum optimization coefficient corresponding to each subcarrier according to the signal-to-noise ratio of each subcarrier.
That is, in this mode, the preset spectral optimization coefficients are calculated from the time domain waveform. In one embodiment of the application, the calculation may be performed by a processor or processing device executing the signal processing method. After the time domain waveform corresponding to each subcarrier is obtained, judging whether signals and noise of the time domain waveform can be separated or not, if so, respectively carrying out Fourier transform on the signal waveform and the noise waveform, then calculating the signal-to-noise ratio of the subcarrier, and finally calculating the frequency spectrum optimization coefficient corresponding to the subcarrier according to the signal-to-noise ratio of the subcarrier; if the signals and the noise of the time domain waveform can not be separated by judgment, the frequency spectrum optimization coefficient of the current time domain waveform is delayed by the frequency spectrum optimization coefficient of the previous period, namely the frequency spectrum optimization coefficient of the current time domain waveform is consistent with the frequency spectrum optimization coefficient of the previous period, the current time domain waveform is directly optimized according to the frequency spectrum optimization coefficient, and calculation is not carried out.
After time domain waveforms corresponding to other subcarriers are subsequently obtained, firstly, whether the peak value of the time domain waveform is larger than a preset threshold value or not is judged, if the peak value of the time domain waveform is smaller than the preset threshold value, the frequency spectrum optimization coefficient does not need to be recalculated, and the frequency spectrum optimization coefficient calculated last time is directly used; if the signal waveform is larger than the preset value, judging whether the signal and the noise of the time domain waveform can be separated, if so, respectively carrying out Fourier transform on the signal waveform and the noise waveform, then calculating the signal-to-noise ratio of the subcarrier, and finally calculating the frequency spectrum optimization coefficient corresponding to the subcarrier according to the signal-to-noise ratio of the subcarrier.
In an embodiment of the present application, each spectrum optimization coefficient obtained through calculation in the second mode may be further stored according to a frequency of each subcarrier and a corresponding relationship between preset spectrum optimization coefficients corresponding to each subcarrier, so that when the apparatus is used next time, the processor or the processing device may directly obtain the preset spectrum optimization coefficient corresponding to the current subcarrier from the memory according to the corresponding relationship between the subcarrier and the preset spectrum optimization coefficients.
By adopting the signal processing of the laser radar provided by the application, the received waveform of the reflected echo is accurately converted to the frequency spectrum signal by adding the frequency spectrum optimization processing step on the basis of the signal processing of the existing laser radar, then the frequency spectrum signal is divided into a plurality of subcarriers by the frequency spectrum optimization algorithm, and each subcarrier is optimized, so that the signal-to-noise ratio of the whole frequency spectrum signal is optimized, and the effects of reconstructing and recovering echo pulse signals and suppressing noise interference are achieved.
Compared with the prior art, the method provided by the application has the advantages that when the signal amplitude of the reflection echo of the target object is smaller than the maximum amplitude of the noise and the interference (namely the signal is submerged by the noise and the interference), the signal amplitude of the reflection echo is strengthened and the noise and the interference are weakened through frequency spectrum optimization processing, and therefore the method provided by the application can be suitable for a laser radar system working in a long distance.
Meanwhile, as the spectrum line of the periodic interference is narrow, the frequency domain optimization algorithm based on the multiple subcarriers can effectively inhibit the interference, namely the method provided by the application has strong capability of resisting the periodic interference such as circuit control signal crosstalk or circuit oscillation interference and the like, and ensures that the signal amplitude is not influenced. The laser radar signal processing method can effectively prolong the ranging range of the laser radar and provide reliable detection data and imaging images for medium-high speed automatic driving automobiles or robots and the like.
