Detailed Description
The invention can be applied to any field in which it is necessary to detect the speed of an object. For example, the method is applied to intelligent driving fields such as automatic driving, auxiliary driving, safe driving and the like, and can detect obstacles such as vehicles, pedestrians and the like in road scenes. For another example, the method can be applied to the field of unmanned aerial vehicles, and can detect obstacles in the flight scene of the unmanned aerial vehicle. For another example, the method can be applied to the field of security protection, and objects entering a designated area are detected.
Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of an application scenario to which the present invention is applicable. As shown in fig. 1, the intelligent driving vehicle includes a radar (not shown). In the running process of the intelligent driving vehicle, the radar can identify and detect objects (such as falling rocks, spills, dead branches, pedestrians, vehicles and the like) in front of the lane, obtain at least one piece of information of the distance, the speed and the angle of the objects, and plan the intelligent driving state according to the detection information, such as lane changing, speed reduction or parking and the like.
Wherein the radar may be a multiple-input multiple-output radar. The invention does not limit the specific structure of the MIMO radar and does not limit the number of the transmitting antennas and the receiving antennas. For example, as shown in fig. 2, a mimo radar may include 2 transmit antennas and 4 receive antennas. Wherein, TX represents the transmitting antenna, and 2 transmitting antennas are marked as TX 1-TX 2.RX stands for receiving antenna, 4 receiving antennas are labeled RX 1-RX 4. Illustratively, one implementation of radar transmitting and receiving signals is: at time 1, the transmit antenna TX1 is operating, transmitting signal 1. Correspondingly, the receiving antennas RX1 to RX4 can respectively receive the reflected signals of the signal 1. At time 2, the transmit antenna TX2 is active, transmitting signal 2. Correspondingly, the receiving antennas RX1 to RX4 can respectively receive the reflected signals of the signal 2. In this way, the multi-input multi-output radar can be equivalent to 8 virtual channels formed by 1 transmitting antenna and 8 receiving antennas by combining 2 transmitting antennas TX 1-TX 2 and 4 receiving antennas RX 1-RX 4, the aperture of the receiving antennas is obviously increased, and the angle resolution performance of the radar is improved.
The speed measurement method provided by the invention is based on the radar with a multiple-input multiple-output system, and the accurate speed of the target can be obtained by detecting through sending the same signal, so that the complexity of the system is reduced, and the frame rate of the radar is improved.
The technical scheme of the invention is described in detail below by specific examples. The following specific embodiments may be combined with each other and some embodiments may not be repeated for the same or similar concepts or processes.
It should be noted that, in order to clearly describe the technical solution of the present invention, in the embodiments of the present invention, the words "first", "second", and the like are used to distinguish the same item or similar items having substantially the same function and effect. It will be appreciated by those of skill in the art that the words "first," "second," and the like do not limit the amount and order of execution, and that the words "first," "second," and the like do not necessarily differ.
It should be noted that, in the embodiments of the present invention, the mimo radar is sometimes simply referred to as a radar, and has the same meaning.
Fig. 3 is a flowchart of a speed measurement method according to an embodiment of the present invention. The speed measurement method provided by the embodiment can be applied to a multi-input multi-output radar. As shown in fig. 3, the speed measurement method provided in this embodiment may include:
s301, acquiring a first angle, a second angle and a first speed of a target.
Wherein the first angle is determined from a first received signal corresponding to a signal transmitted by the mimo radar at a first time and the second angle is determined from a second received signal corresponding to a signal transmitted by the mimo radar at a second time, the signal transmitted at the first time being the same as the signal transmitted at the second time.
In particular, the mimo radar may acquire the angle and speed of the target from the received signals. The radar has different structures and different models, adopts different communication frequency bands, and can obtain different angles and speeds of targets, which is not limited in this embodiment. The angle and the speed of the target may be the angle and the speed of the target relative to the reference object, and the reference object is not limited in this embodiment. For example, the reference object may be the radar itself or an intelligent vehicle provided with the radar, an unmanned plane, or the like. In different application scenarios, the targets may be different. For example, in a smart driving scenario, targets may include, but are not limited to, vehicles and pedestrians.
In this embodiment, the mimo radar transmits the same signal at the first time and the second time. Since the transmitted signals are identical, the complexity of the system waveform design is reduced. After the signal sent at the first moment is reflected by the target, the signal received by the radar may be referred to as a first received signal. The angle of the target determined by the radar from the first received signal may be referred to as a first angle. Similarly, after the signal sent at the second moment is reflected by the target, the signal received by the radar may be referred to as a second received signal. The angle of the target determined by the radar from the second received signal may be referred to as a second angle. Meanwhile, the radar may acquire the speed of the target, which is referred to as a first speed.
Alternatively, the first speed may be determined from the first received signal or from the second received signal. In general, the time interval between the first time and the second time is very short, and the speed change of the target at the first time and the second time is small. Therefore, the first speed may be the speed of the target determined according to the first received signal, or may be the speed of the target determined according to the second received signal, which improves the flexibility of the algorithm.
In the present embodiment, the order of the first time and the second time is not limited. For convenience of explanation, in the embodiments of the present invention, the first time is described by taking as an example before the second time.
Note that, in this embodiment, the type of signals transmitted by the mimo radar at the first time and the second time is not limited.
Alternatively, the signal transmitted at the first time and the signal transmitted at the second time are both frequency modulated continuous wave signals. Where a continuous wave signal means that the signal is output in a continuous manner rather than in a pulsed manner. A frequency modulated continuous wave signal refers to a continuously output signal that is frequency modulated. After the frequency is modulated, the frequency can be changed according to a certain rule along with time. The specific form of the waveform and the frequency modulation method are not limited in this embodiment.
By way of example, fig. 4 shows a time-frequency diagram of a signal emitted by a mimo radar. In fig. 4, a solid line may represent a signal transmitted by the radar at a first time, and a broken line may represent a signal transmitted by the radar at a second time. The repetition period of the signal is T.
Optionally, the mimo radar includes a first transmitting antenna and a second transmitting antenna, and the signal transmitted at the first time is a signal transmitted through the first transmitting antenna, and the signal transmitted at the second time is a signal transmitted through the second transmitting antenna.
An exemplary illustration is provided in connection with fig. 2 and 4. In fig. 2, a solid line may represent a signal transmitted by the radar at a first time through the transmitting antenna TX1, and a dotted line may represent a signal transmitted by the radar at a second time through the transmitting antenna TX2. For the transmit antennas TX1 and TX2, the repetition period of the signal is changed to 2T.
S302, performing phase compensation on the second received signal according to the first speed to obtain a third received signal.
Specifically, the signal transmitted at the second time is one period later than the signal transmitted at the first time. For a moving target, in one period T, the distance of movement is vT, and v is the movement speed of the target. In one period T, the path difference of electromagnetic wave transmission is 2vt, and c is the transmission speed of electromagnetic wave. Thus, the phase difference due to the movement of the object is:
where λ is the wavelength of the emitted signal and pi is the circumference ratio.
In order to improve the joint multi-channel angular performance of the mimo radar, phase compensation is required for the second received signal corresponding to the signal transmitted at the second moment to obtain the third received signal. Note that, the radar may have different structures and different models, and the principle of performing phase compensation may be different if the communication frequency bands are different, which is not limited in this embodiment.
S303, determining a third angle of the target according to the first received signal and the third received signal.
S304, determining the target speed of the target according to the first angle, the second angle, the third angle and the first speed.
Specifically, the first received signal and the third received signal after phase compensation are subjected to joint processing, and a third angle of the target is obtained. Then, based on the first angle, the second angle, the third angle, and the first speed, a speed of the target, which may also be referred to as a target speed, is finally determined.
It can be seen that, according to the speed measurement method provided by the embodiment, the mimo radar transmits the same signal at different moments, and according to the received signal and the phase compensated received signal, three angles of the target can be obtained respectively, and based on the three angles and the speed obtained by radar measurement, the speed of the target is finally determined. Because the speed of the target is obtained based on the result of the phase compensation, the accuracy of obtaining the speed of the target is improved. In addition, as the MIMO radar only needs to send the same signals, the complexity of the system waveform design is reduced, and the frame rate of the radar is improved.
Optionally, in the speed measurement method provided in this embodiment, before performing phase compensation on the second received signal according to the first speed in S302, the method may further include:
and judging whether the difference value between the first angle and the second angle is smaller than a second preset threshold value.
And if the difference between the first angle and the second angle is smaller than a second preset threshold value, executing the step of carrying out phase compensation on the second received signal according to the first speed.
And deleting the target if the difference between the first angle and the second angle is larger than a second preset threshold value.
In particular, the time interval between the first moment and the second moment is typically very short, and the change in position of the object at the first moment and the second moment is typically small. In this way, the difference between the first angle determined by the radar from the first received signal and the second angle determined from the second received signal will typically be relatively small. If the difference between the first angle and the second angle is smaller than a threshold, which indicates that the deviation of the processing result is smaller and the data is relatively accurate, the step of S302 is continued. For ease of distinction, the threshold may be referred to as a second preset threshold. If the difference between the first angle and the second angle is greater than the second preset threshold, it indicates that the deviation of the processing result is greater and the possibility of abnormality of the data is greater, so that the problematic data can be deleted, the subsequent steps S302 to S304 are avoided, and inaccurate target speed is avoided.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the specific value of the second preset threshold is not limited. In practical applications, it may be relevant to the goniometric performance of a mimo radar.
The embodiment provides a speed measurement method, which includes: the method comprises the steps of obtaining a first angle, a second angle and a first speed of a target, carrying out phase compensation on a second receiving signal according to the first speed to obtain a third receiving signal, determining a third angle of the target according to the first receiving signal and the third receiving signal, and obtaining the target speed of the target according to the first angle, the second angle, the third angle and the first speed. And the speed of the target is obtained based on the phase compensation result, so that the accuracy of obtaining the speed of the target is improved. In addition, the MIMO radar only needs to send the same signals, so that the complexity of the system waveform design is reduced, and the frame rate of the radar is improved.
On the basis of the embodiment shown in fig. 3, this embodiment provides an implementation of S304. Fig. 5 is a flowchart of another speed measurement method according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 5, acquiring the target speed of the target according to the first angle, the second angle, the third angle, and the first speed may include:
s501, acquiring an intermediate angle according to the first angle and the second angle.
Optionally, obtaining the intermediate angle according to the first angle and the second angle may include: the average value of the sum of the first angle and the second angle is taken as the intermediate angle.
Optionally, obtaining the intermediate angle according to the first angle and the second angle may include: and acquiring the intermediate angle according to the weight corresponding to the first angle and the second angle respectively. For example, a represents a first angle, and the corresponding weight is p. b represents a second angle, and the corresponding weight is q. Intermediate angle = p x a + q x b. The specific values of p and q are not limited in this embodiment.
S502, determining the target speed of the target according to the third angle, the intermediate angle and the first speed.
Therefore, the intermediate angle is obtained by processing the first angle and the second angle, so that the processing error is effectively reduced. And according to the third angle, the middle angle and the first speed, the target speed of the target is acquired, and the accuracy of acquiring the target speed is improved.
Optionally, in one implementation, determining the target speed of the target according to the third angle, the intermediate angle, and the first speed S502 may include:
if the difference between the third angle and the intermediate angle is less than the first preset threshold, the first speed is determined as the target speed.
Specifically, the third angle is an angle of the target acquired by the mimo radar according to the third received signal after the phase compensation. The intermediate angle is the angle of the target obtained after further processing the first angle and the second angle. If the difference between the third angle and the intermediate angle is less than a threshold, it may be determined that the deviation of the data processing is small. In a scene where the time interval between the first time and the second time is generally short, the first speed of the target obtained by radar detection can be determined as the target speed of the target in accordance with the scene where the target movement position is small. For ease of distinction, the threshold may be referred to as a first preset threshold.
Note that, in this embodiment, the specific value of the first preset threshold is not limited. In practical applications, it may be relevant to the goniometric performance of a mimo radar. Alternatively, the first preset threshold value and the second preset threshold value may be the same.
Optionally, in another implementation, S502, determining the target speed of the target according to the third angle, the intermediate angle, and the first speed may include:
and if the difference between the third angle and the intermediate angle is larger than a first preset threshold value, adjusting the first speed, and returning to execute the steps of performing phase compensation and determining the target speed of the target according to the adjusted first speed.
Specifically, if the difference between the third angle and the intermediate angle is greater than the second preset threshold, it is indicated that the deviation of the data processing is large, possibly because the first speed obtained by radar detection is not very accurate. At this time, the first speed may be adjusted, and the step of S302 may be performed back according to the adjusted first speed, that is, the second received signal may be phase-compensated according to the adjusted first speed, to obtain a new third received signal. And continues to S303 to S304 to reacquire the target speed of the target.
In this embodiment, the adjustment amount of the first speed is not limited.
Optionally, adjusting the first speed may include: a preset speed value is added or subtracted from the first speed. The specific value of the preset speed value is not limited in this embodiment. In practical applications, the speed measurement performance of the mimo radar can be related. Alternatively, the preset speed value may be a non-ambiguous speed range, identified as V T . The unambiguous speed range refers to the radial speed value of the target from one pulse to the next that the radar can measure.
Optionally, after performing the phase compensation and determining the target speed of the target according to the adjusted first speed return, the method may further include:
and deleting the target if the difference between the third angle and the middle angle is larger than a first preset threshold value.
Specifically, after re-executing S302 to S303 according to the adjusted first speed, a new third angle is obtained. Execution continues with S304. If the difference between the new third angle and the intermediate angle is still larger than the first preset threshold, the deviation of the data processing result is larger, and the possibility of abnormality of the data is larger, so that the problematic data can be deleted, and inaccurate target speed is avoided.
Next, a speed measurement method provided by the present invention will be described by way of example.
Assume that a mimo radar transmits signals at a first time T1 and a second time T2, respectively. The radar acquires a first angle a of a target according to a first receiving signal S1 corresponding to a signal sent at a first moment T1, acquires a second angle b of the target according to a second receiving signal S2 corresponding to a signal sent at a second moment T2, and detects a first speed v of the acquired target currently. The first preset threshold value is equal to the second preset threshold value, and d is the same as the second preset threshold value. The preset speed value is V T
Alternatively, in one example, if the first angle a-second angle b > the second preset threshold d, indicating that the data processing error is large, the target is deleted without further processing.
Alternatively, in another example, if the first angle a-second angle b < second preset threshold d, it indicates that the data processing error is small, further processing can be performed. The radar may obtain the third received signal S3 after phase compensating the second received signal S2 according to the first velocity v. And, a third angle c of the target is obtained from the first received signal S1 and the third received signal S3. The radar may determine an intermediate angle e= (a+b)/2 from the first angle a and the second angle b.
Further, in one example, if |third angle c-intermediate angle (a+b)/2| < first preset threshold d, the target speed of the target is directly determined to be first speed v.
In another example, if the |third angle c-intermediate angle (a+b)/2| > first preset threshold d, the first speed is adjusted to V' =v+v T . After the second received signal S2 is phase compensated again according to the first speed v ', a new third received signal S3' is obtained. And according to the firstA received signal S1 and a third received signal S3 'obtain a new third angle c' of the object.
