Description

Coherent laser radar method and device for measuring distance and speed by phase modulation
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of laser radars, in particular to a phase modulation ranging and speed measuring coherent laser radar method and device.
Background
The laser radar can acquire information such as distance and speed of a target with high precision and high accuracy, can realize 3D high-resolution imaging of a long-distance target, and has an important effect in the fields of surveying and mapping, navigation and the like. Laser radars can be divided into two main categories according to the difference of the transmitted signals: pulsed lidar and continuous wave lidar.
The pulse laser radar adopts a pulse light signal as a detection signal, and obtains target distance information by accurately measuring the flight time of a reflected light pulse. The pulse laser radar adopts a direct detection system, the resolution ratio is relatively low, short pulses with low time delay jitter, an ultrafast optoelectronic device and the like are required to be used for improving the distance resolution ratio, independent Doppler velocity measurement cannot be carried out, and the higher pulse power also puts requirements on the device performance and the human eye safety.
The continuous wave laser radar adopts continuous light signals as detection signals and has the characteristics of low peak power, high resolution and the like. Continuous wave lidar is further classified into phase-type lidar, pseudo-random code modulated lidar and frequency modulated continuous wave lidar. The phase type laser radar is based on a phase laser ranging technology, adopts single-frequency signals to modulate laser, and finally obtains target distance information by phase discrimination of reflected light signals. The disadvantage of this method is that there is a phase measurement error, and the phase measurement error increases with decreasing frequency of the modulation signal, thus the contradiction between increasing the measurement distance and improving the accuracy. In order to realize long-distance and high-precision measurement, several different modulation signal frequencies can be used at the same time, namely several different measuring rulers are used, the shortest measuring ruler is used for ensuring the measurement precision, and the longest measuring ruler is used for ensuring the distance measurement range, so that the system is more complex and does not have the Doppler velocity measurement capability. The pseudo-random code modulation laser radar modulates the amplitude or the phase transmitted by the laser radar by the pseudo-random code modulation code, and a receiving end uses a method of solving a correlation function by a received signal and the modulation pseudo-random code to realize the measurement of a target distance, so that higher distance resolution can be obtained under the condition of wide pulse width. However, the range resolution of the pseudo-random code modulation laser radar is inversely proportional to the transmission signal bandwidth, and the larger the transmission signal bandwidth is, the higher the range resolution is, which puts high requirements on receiving hardware. In addition, the modulation process of the pseudo-random code makes the echo signal be a continuous sine wave only at the position of the "1" code, so that the doppler signal cannot be sampled at equal intervals, and the spectrum analysis cannot be directly performed by adopting fast fourier transform. The 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 can be achieved through waveform modulation. The frequency modulation continuous wave laser radar has the advantages that when the laser works in a wide pulse width and low peak power state, the pulse repetition detection frequency can be greatly improved, so that the spatial resolution is improved; in addition, higher sensitivity can be obtained with coherent detection. However, the cost is high due to the limitation of the hardware condition of the laser, the pulse repetition frequency is limited, and the frequency modulation nonlinearity is still an unsolved problem.
