Description

Vehicle queuing measurement method based on laser radar
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of laser radar measurement, in particular to a vehicle queuing measurement method based on a laser radar.
Background
Lidar is a generic term for laser active detection sensor devices. For the measurement imaging laser radar, the main working principle is to realize three-dimensional scanning measurement (imaging) of the target contour through high-frequency ranging and scanning angle measurement. The measuring imaging laser radar mainly comprises two major types of measuring LiDAR and navigation LiDAR. The measuring LiDAR is mainly used for high-precision mapping; the navigation LiDAR is mainly used for navigation obstacle avoidance of intelligent vehicles, robots and flying equipment. The measurement principle and the technical basis of the two products are similar, and the main difference is the difference of the operation mode, the detection distance and the measurement precision. The navigation LiDAR product trades for reduced equipment size and weight and increased laser scan line count at the expense of detection distance, ranging/angular measurement accuracy, and detection of imaging gray scale. In addition, the navigation LiDAR realizes the measurement of the three-dimensional contour of the target through a plurality of scanning lines. Compared with auxiliary driving sensors such as cameras, ultrasonic radars, millimeter wave radars and the like, the laser radars are 'eyes of intelligent vehicles' truly provided with space three-dimensional resolution capability.
The traditional laser radar filtering ground algorithm mainly adopts a PCL-based RANSAC algorithm, and the RANSAC is an abbreviation of 'Random Sample Consensus (random sampling consensus'). It can estimate the parameters of the mathematical model in an iterative manner from a set of observation data sets containing "outliers". It is an uncertain algorithm-it has a certain probability to get a reasonable result; the number of iterations must be increased in order to increase the probability.
The basic assumption of RANSAC is:
(1) The data consists of "intra-office points", such as: the distribution of the data may be interpreted with some model parameters;
(2) An "outlier" is data that cannot fit the model;
(3) The data in addition belongs to noise.
The reasons for the generation of the off-site points are: extreme values of noise; an erroneous measurement method; false assumptions about data. RANSAC also makes the following assumptions: given a set of (usually small) intra-office points, there is a process by which model parameters can be estimated; and the model can be interpreted or applied to the local points. A certain distance threshold is set through a RANSAC filtering algorithm of PCL, no matter the threshold is too large or too small, if the threshold is too small, the ground cannot be well filtered, and if the threshold is too large, the point clouds of other objects can be filtered out.
