Description

Method and device for improving laser ranging precision
Technical Field

Meanwhile, the laser radar can be applied to various environments, and most of the laser radar is applied to outdoor environments particularly in the industrial field. The outdoor environment is comparatively abominable, receives the interference of interference sources such as sleet dust very easily to influence laser radar's normal detection.
At present, the technical means of removing the influence of rain, snow, dust and the like by the laser radar is to adopt a multi-echo technology, namely, echoes caused by interference sources such as rain, snow, dust and the like and target effective echoes are detected together, and screening and filtering are carried out through a system. Taking an interference source as an example of raindrops, as shown in fig. 1, when the raindrops are far away from a target, an interference echo and a target echo are separated on a time axis, and the interference echo can be effectively identified and filtered through a multi-echo algorithm, so that the target can be clearly and stably detected.
However, if the distance between the interference source and the target is too close and the interference source and the target are both close to the laser radar device, the transmission distance of the detection echo transmitted by the laser radar device in the space is not far, the light intensity is not attenuated too much, the divergence size of the light spot is not large, and at the moment, the echoes generated by the interference source and the target cannot be effectively separated. As shown in fig. 2, when the raindrops are close to the target, the interference echoes caused by the raindrops overlap with the target echoes, and at this time, the multi-echo algorithm cannot effectively identify and filter the interference echoes, so that the laser radar is affected by interference sources such as rain, snow, dust and the like in some special applications.

In addition, the technical features involved in the embodiments of the present invention described below may be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other. The invention will be described in detail below with reference to the figures and examples.
Example 1
In an application scene with interference sources such as rain, snow, dust and the like, when a laser signal reaches a target and the interference sources, the laser signal is reflected to generate an echo signal. If echo signals of the target and the interference source are superposed, the laser ranging is affected, and at the moment, the influence of the interference source on the laser radar cannot be effectively identified and filtered by the multi-echo technology. In order to solve the above problem, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for improving laser ranging accuracy, where:
after receiving the echo signal, firstly detecting whether the waveform of the echo signal has a pit above a signal threshold. If the pits exist, the received echo signals are proved to be specific echoes caused by the existence of interference sources such as rain, snow, dust and the like, and the echoes of the target and the interference sources are superposed, and then a specific echo calculation process is carried out; if the pit does not exist, the received echo signal is proved to be a normal echo, namely, the interference source does not exist or the interference source exists but the echoes of the target and the interference source are not superposed, and then a normal echo calculation process is carried out. For the sake of understanding, before the description of the flow of computing the peculiar echo and the flow of computing the normal echo, the following description is first made:
under the same detection distance, a plurality of normal echoes acquired aiming at targets with different reflectivities are shown in fig. 3, and have the following characteristics from the view of rising edge waveforms alone: the higher the peak height H, the wider the corresponding rising edge time width W, which is approximately linear with the peak height H, and the peak positions of the plurality of normal echoes are the same (i.e., the peaks are on the same time axis). The rising edge time width W refers to a time width from an initial flight time of the echo signal to a time corresponding to a peak value, and the initial flight time refers to a time intersection point of the rising edge of the echo and a signal threshold. For example, A, B, C, D, E in fig. 3 corresponds to the time points of the first flight times of the echo signals 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, respectively, O is the time corresponding to the peak of each echo, AO, BO, CO, DO, and EO are the rising edge time widths of the echo signals 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, respectively; since the echo signal gradually increases in peak height H in the order of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, the rise time widths AO, BO, CO, DO, and EO increase in sequence.
According to the above features, the specific echo calculation procedure may first obtain, through scaling, a first function W = f1(H) for characterizing a relationship between a rising edge time width W and a peak height H in a normal echo, specifically: firstly, collecting a plurality of normal echoes reflected by targets with different reflectivity at the same detection distance, and further obtaining a plurality of groups of rising edge time widths W and corresponding peak heights H, namely a plurality of groups of (W, H) data; then, based on the rising edge time width W and the sets of (W, H) data corresponding to the peak height H, a first function for characterizing the relationship between the rising edge time width W and the peak height H is obtained by fitting scaling. As can be seen from fig. 3, the rising edge time width W and the peak height H are substantially linear, and accordingly, the first function W = f1(H) is a linear function.
When laser generated by the laser radar first hits an interference source to generate reflection and then hits a target to generate reflection, the obtained echo signal includes two overlapped echoes as shown in fig. 4, and it is obvious that the first echo on the time axis is an interference echo and the second echo is a target echo. When laser generated by the laser radar first hits multiple interference sources to generate reflection and then hits a target to generate reflection, the obtained echo signal includes multiple overlapped echoes as shown in fig. 5, obviously, the last echo on the time axis is a target echo, and all echoes before the target echo are interference echoes. For convenience of description, marking a received first echo signal as a first echo, wherein the first echo corresponds to an interference echo; and recording the last received echo signal as a second echo, namely a target echo.
In fig. 4 and 5, T0 is the time intersection of the rising edge of the first echo and the signal threshold, i.e. the initial flight time of the first echo; t1 is the peak corresponding time of the first echo, T2 is the peak corresponding time of the second echo; t3 is the corresponding time of the last pit; t4 is the time intersection of the falling edge of the second echo with the signal threshold, i.e. the ending time of flight of the second echo; h1 is the peak height of the first echo, H2 is the peak height of the second echo; h3 is the peak height of the last pit, and all the above parameters can be directly obtained from the waveform of the echo signal. And extending the rising edge of the second echo reversely to obtain a time intersection point T of the rising edge of the second echo and a signal threshold, namely the initial flight time of the second echo. As can be seen from the figure, the waveform of the second echo is hidden from superposition from T to T3, and if the echo intensity of the second echo is to be acquired, the initial flight time T of the second echo needs to be calculated.
As shown in fig. 6, based on the above description, the flow of computing the distinctive echo is specifically as follows:
step 101, creating a virtual echo of a second echo by taking a first echo as a center, enabling the corresponding time of the virtual echo to be consistent with the corresponding time of the peak value of the first echo, and determining the initial flight time Tx of the virtual echo based on a first function.
First, a virtual echo of a second echo is created on a time axis with the first echo as a center, and both the time corresponding to the peak of the virtual echo and the time corresponding to the peak of the first echo are T1, that is, the peak of the virtual echo and the peak of the first echo are coaxial. With reference to fig. 4 and 5, the rising edge of the virtual echo is shown as a dashed waveform, and the waveform of the virtual echo is the same as that of the second echo; the time intersection point of the rising edge of the virtual echo and the signal threshold is Tx, namely the initial flight time of the virtual echo is Tx.
Then, based on the first function and the peak height H2 of the virtual echo, the rising edge time width W2 of the virtual echo is calculated. Wherein, according to the first function W = f1(H), the rising edge time width W2= T1-Tx = f1(H2) of the virtual echo can be obtained.
Finally, the calculated rising edge time width W2 of the virtual echo and the peak corresponding time T1 of the virtual echo are combined to calculate the initial flight time Tx of the virtual echo. Specifically, from W2= T1-Tx = f1(H2), Tx = T1-f1(H2) can be obtained.
Further, taking the first echo as an example, according to the first function, there is T1-T0= f1(H1), but since there is a plurality of peaks, there occurs squeezing between peaks, which are not strictly equal, i.e., T1-T0 ≠ f1(H1), there exists a certain squeezing error. To ensure the accuracy of the calculation of the rough time of flight Tx, the extrusion error is also considered when determining the rough time of flight Tx, which is as follows:
first, based on the first function and the peak height H1 of the first echo, the rising edge time width W1 of the first echo is calculated: w1= f1 (H1). Then, the calculated rising edge time width W1 of the first echo, the peak corresponding time T1 of the first echo, and the rough flight time T0 of the first echo are combined to calculate a squeezing error E1: e1= T1-T0-W1= T1-T0-f1 (H1). After calculating the initial flight time Tx of the virtual echo, the calculated initial flight time Tx is compensated and corrected by the extrusion error E1, and the final Tx can be obtained as follows: tx = T1-f1(H2) + E1= T1-f1(H2) + T1-T0-f1(H1) =2T1-T0-f1(H1) -f1 (H2).
And 102, obtaining the initial flight time T of the second echo according to the initial flight time Tx of the virtual echo, the time T1 corresponding to the peak value of the virtual echo and the time T2 corresponding to the peak value of the second echo.
The waveform of the virtual echo is the same as the waveform of the second echo, so the rough flight time T of the second echo can be determined by the rough flight time Tx of the virtual echo, as follows: first, a deviation E2 between the initial flight time Tx of the virtual echo and the initial flight time T of the second echo is calculated from the peak corresponding time T1 of the virtual echo and the peak corresponding time T2 of the second echo: e2= T-Tx = T2-T1. Then, the initial flight time T of the second echo is calculated from the deviation E2 and the initial flight time Tx of the virtual echo: t = T2-T1+ Tx. When Tx =2T1-T0-f1(H1) -f1(H2), T = T2+ T1-T0-f1(H1) -f1 (H2).
Step 103, calculating the echo intensity S2 of the superimposed concealed part in the second echo according to the initial flight time T of the second echo, the corresponding time T3 of the last pit and the peak height H3 of the last pit, and finally obtaining the total echo intensity S of the second echo.
The total echo intensity S of the second echo is the echo intensity from T to T4, wherein the echo intensity S1 from T3 to T4 can be directly obtained according to the waveform, the part from T to T3 has no waveform, the waveform from T to T3 can be approximated to a straight line with the height from 0 to H3, the echo intensity S2 from T to T3 is calculated, and the two parts of echo intensities are added to obtain the total echo intensity S. The specific process is as follows:
first, based on the rough flight time T of the second echo, the corresponding time T3 of the last pit, and the peak height H3 of the last pit, the echo intensity S2 of the superimposed hidden portion of the second echo is calculated according to the triangle area formula. Since the waveform of the time period from T to T3 is approximated to a straight line, the corresponding region is approximated to a triangle, and therefore, the corresponding echo intensity S2, i.e., S2= (T-T3) × H3/2, can be calculated by a triangle area formula.
Then, based on the corresponding time T3 of the last pit and the ending flight time T4 of the second echo, the echo intensity S1 of the non-superimposed hidden portion of the second echo is calculated according to the fitted function of the second echo. The normal echoes are all in a parabolic shape, the second echoes are also in a parabolic shape, the corresponding fitting function can be obtained by performing curve fitting on a plurality of echo signal data sampled in a time period from T3 to T4, and then the echo intensity S1 in the time period from T3 to T4 can be obtained according to the fitting function.
Finally, the echo intensity S2 of the superimposed hidden portion and the echo intensity S1 of the non-superimposed hidden portion in the second echo are added to obtain the total echo intensity S of the second echo, i.e., S = S1+ S2.
And 104, calculating the distance between the target and the laser radar according to the initial flight time T of the second echo and the total echo intensity S of the second echo.
First, a corresponding time calibration value, i.e. f2(S), is calculated from the total echo intensity S of the second echo, where f2 is a time calibration function based on echo intensity, and can be obtained by scaling.
Then, the laser flight time T ', i.e., T' = [ T + f2(S) ]/2 is calculated from the initial flight time T of the second echo and the time calibration value f2(S), and the division by 2 is the time elapsed by 2 times since the time of T is from the start of laser emission to the end of laser emission.
Finally, the distance L between the target and the laser radar is calculated according to the laser flight time T 'and the speed of light c, i.e. L = T' × c = [ T + f2(S) ] × c/2.
In the flow of computing the peculiar echo, the echo intensity S2 of the superimposed hidden part in the second echo is directly obtained according to a triangle area computing formula. In an alternative embodiment, as shown in fig. 4 and 5, a point with height H3 is found on the rising edge of the first echo, and the time Ty corresponding to the height H3 is determined on the rising edge of the first echo; after Ty is determined, an echo intensity for a time period T0 to Ty in the first echo may be calculated according to a fit function of the first echo S2'; according to the triangle area proportion relation, S2 '/S2 = (Ty-T0)/(T3-T), so S2= S2' (T3-T)/(Ty-T0) can be obtained. Wherein the fitting function of the first echo is obtained by curve fitting a plurality of echo signal data sampled in a time period from T0 to T3. In another alternative embodiment, the echo intensity may also be calculated from a fitted function of the second echoes based directly on T and T3S 2. Compared with simulation calculation, the difference between the S2 calculated by different methods is small, so that different methods can be selected for calculation according to actual requirements.
It should be noted that, when the first method is adopted to calculate S2, the waveform of the second echo in the time period from T to T3 is approximated to a triangle, that is, the rising edge of the second echo is approximated to a straight line. However, the rising edge in the actual waveform still has a certain radian and is not a complete straight line, so that a certain error still exists after approximation; in order to reduce the error, certain hardware circuit design or software design can be carried out during laser emission, so that the rising edge of the received echo signal is as close to a straight line as possible. The closer the rising edge of the actual waveform is to a straight line, the more accurate the echo intensity calculated when the waveform is approximated to a triangle, and the higher the final ranging accuracy.
It should be noted that, in the case that a plurality of interference sources exist in fig. 5 and a plurality of interference echoes are generated, a plurality of pits exist in the waveform, and at this time, when calculating the initial flight time T and the total echo intensity S of the second echo (i.e., the target echo), only the rising edge and the last pit of the first interference echo need to be used, and the specific calculation method is the same as that when one interference source exists, and is performed in the order of step 101 to step 104.
Further, when the received echo signal is a normal echo, only one target echo is present on the time axis, or there are multiple echoes but the target echo can be clearly distinguished, and at this time, the corresponding normal echo calculation process specifically includes: and directly obtaining the total echo intensity S of the target echo according to the initial flight time of the target echo, the ending flight time of the target echo and the fitting function of the normal echo.
In summary, the method provided in the embodiment of the present invention can identify the specific echo based on whether the waveform has a pit or not, and enter the specific echo calculation process, and when calculating, skillfully utilize the rising edge time width-peak height function relation of the normal echo, obtain the initial flight time T of the target echo by using the initial flight time of the interference echo, the time corresponding to the peak of the interference echo, the virtual echo of the target echo, and the like, further calculate the echo intensity of the superimposed and hidden portion in the target echo, finally obtain the total echo intensity T of the target echo, and perform distance calculation. By the scheme, in a scene with interference sources such as rain, snow, dust and the like, the distance measurement process can be guaranteed not to be affected by the interference sources, and the distance of the target echo in multi-echo superposition, namely the distance between the target and the laser radar, can be accurately and stably calculated.

In the above embodiment 1, there is an application scenario where there are interference sources such as rain, snow, dust, etc., and the thickness of such interference sources is small, so that the waveforms of the generated interference echoes are similar to the target echoes and have a sharp peak, as shown in fig. 1, and as shown in fig. 2, 4, and 5 after being overlapped. For the interference sources with certain thickness such as smoke and haze, the waveforms of the generated interference echoes are different, and there are no sharp peaks, but rather there are wider peaks as shown in fig. 7, and after overlapping, as shown in fig. 8 and 9. Aiming at the influence caused by the interference source with certain thickness, the embodiment of the invention further provides another method for improving the laser ranging precision:
after receiving the echo signal, firstly detecting the slope change of the rising edge of the echo signal above the signal threshold. If the slope of the rising edge of the echo signal above the signal threshold is detected to be within the minimum preset range for a preset time, the received echo signal is proved to be a specific echo caused by the existence of interference sources with certain thicknesses such as fog, haze and dust, and the echoes of the target and the interference sources are superposed, and then a specific echo calculation process is started; if the slope of the rising edge of the echo signal above the signal threshold is not detected to be within the minimum preset range for a preset time, the received echo signal is proved to be a normal echo, namely, no interference source exists or no interference source exists but the echoes of the target and the interference source are not superposed, and then a normal echo calculation process is carried out. The minimum preset range is within a certain fluctuation range of the minimum value of the slope, the minimum value of the slope is usually 0 or is close to 0, and when the slope of the rising edge is within the minimum preset range, the height change of the waveform is small and the waveform is in a gentle state; the preset time can be specifically taken according to actual experience, and when the slope of the rising edge is in the minimum preset range and lasts for the preset time, the echo is considered to be an interference echo corresponding to an interference source with a certain thickness.
For the sake of understanding, before describing the flow of computing the specific echo and the flow of computing the normal echo, the following description is first made with reference to fig. 9: recording a first received echo signal as a first echo, and corresponding to an interference echo; and recording the last received echo signal as a second echo, namely a target echo. T0 is the rough time of flight of the first echo; t1 is the time when the slope of the first echo enters a minimum preset range, i.e. the time corresponding to the peak of the rising edge; t2 is the peak corresponding time of the second echo; t3 is the time when the slope of the first echo leaves a minimum preset range; t4 is the end time of flight of the second echo; h1 is the height at which the slope of the first echo enters a minimum preset range; h2 is the peak height of the second echo; h3 is the height of the first echo when the slope is away from the minimum preset range, and all the above parameters can be directly obtained by the waveform of the echo signal. And extending the rising edge of the second echo reversely to obtain a time intersection point T of the rising edge of the second echo and a signal threshold, namely the initial flight time of the second echo. As can be seen from the figure, the waveform of the second echo is hidden from superposition from T to T3, and if the echo intensity of the second echo is to be acquired, the initial flight time T of the second echo needs to be calculated.
As shown in fig. 10, based on the above description, the flow of calculating the peculiar echo at this time is specifically as follows:
step 201, creating a virtual echo of a second echo by taking a first echo as a center, making a time corresponding to a peak value of the virtual echo consistent with a time when a slope of the first echo enters a minimum preset range, and determining an initial flight time Tx of the virtual echo based on a first function.
First, a virtual echo of a second echo is created on a time axis with the first echo as a center, and a time corresponding to a peak of the virtual echo is made to coincide with a time when a slope of the first echo falls within a minimum preset range, all of which are T1. With reference to fig. 9, the rising edge of the virtual echo is shown as a dashed waveform, and the waveform of the virtual echo is the same as that of the second echo; the time intersection point of the rising edge of the virtual echo and the signal threshold is Tx, namely the initial flight time of the virtual echo is Tx.
Then, based on the first function and the peak height H2 of the virtual echo, the rising edge time width W2 of the virtual echo is calculated. Wherein, according to the first function W = f1(H), the rising edge time width of the virtual echo rising edge is W2= T1-Tx = f1 (H2). The first function used here is the same as that used in example 1, and the scaling method is the same.
Finally, the calculated rising edge time width W2 of the virtual echo and the peak corresponding time T1 of the virtual echo are combined to calculate the initial flight time Tx of the virtual echo. Specifically, from W2= T1-Tx = f1(H2), Tx = T1-f1(H2) can be obtained.
Further, taking the first echo as an example, according to the first function, there is T1-T0= f1(H1), but since there is a plurality of peaks, there occurs squeezing between peaks, which are not strictly equal, i.e., T1-T0 ≠ f1(H1), there exists a certain squeezing error. To ensure the accuracy of the calculation of the rough time of flight Tx, the extrusion error is also considered when determining the rough time of flight Tx, which is as follows:
firstly, calculating a rising edge time width W1 of the first echo based on the first function and a height H1 when the slope of the first echo enters a minimum preset range; although the first echo has no sharp peak like that of the target echo, the rising edge time width W1 and the height H1 (corresponding to the peak height of the rising edge) have the same linear relationship as the normal echo, that is, the rising edge time width W1 and the height H1 still conform to the first function of the normal echo, and thus, there is W1= f1 (H1). Then, in combination with the calculated rising edge time width W1 of the first echo, the time T1 at which the slope of the first echo enters a minimum preset range, and the initial time of flight T0 of the first echo, a squeezing error E1 is calculated: e1= T1-T0-W1= T1-T0-f1 (H1). After calculating the initial flight time Tx of the virtual echo, the calculated initial flight time Tx is compensated and corrected by the extrusion error E1, and the final Tx can be obtained as follows: tx = T1-f1(H2) + E1= T1-f1(H2) + T1-T0-f1(H1) =2T1-T0-f1(H1) -f1 (H2).
Step 202, obtaining the initial flight time T of the second echo according to the initial flight time Tx of the virtual echo, the time T1 corresponding to the peak value of the virtual echo, and the time T2 corresponding to the peak value of the second echo.
The waveform of the virtual echo is the same as the waveform of the second echo, so the rough flight time T of the second echo can be determined by the rough flight time Tx of the virtual echo, as follows: first, a deviation E2 between the initial flight time Tx of the virtual echo and the initial flight time T of the second echo is calculated from the peak corresponding time T1 of the virtual echo and the peak corresponding time T2 of the second echo: e2= T-Tx = T2-T1. Then, the initial flight time T of the second echo is calculated from the deviation E2 and the initial flight time Tx of the virtual echo: t = T2-T1+ Tx. When Tx =2T1-T0-f1(H1) -f1(H2), T = T2+ T1-T0-f1(H1) -f1 (H2).
Step 203, calculating the echo intensity S2 of the superimposed concealed portion in the second echo according to the echo intensity S0 of the first echo before the slope enters the minimum preset range and the initial flight time T of the second echo, and finally obtaining the total echo intensity S of the second echo.
The total echo intensity S of the second echo is the echo intensity from T to T4, wherein the echo intensity S1 from T3 to T4 can be directly obtained according to the waveform, the part from T to T3 has no waveform, the waveform from T to T3 can be approximated to a straight line with the height from 0 to H3, the echo intensity S2 from T to T3 is calculated, and the two parts of echo intensities are added to obtain the total echo intensity S. The specific process is as follows:
firstly, the echo intensity of the superimposed hidden part in the second echo is calculated by means of a triangular area proportional relation according to the echo intensity S0 of the first echo before the slope enters a minimum preset range and the rough flight time T of the second echo, and S2 is calculated. The specific calculation process will be described later, and will not be described herein.
Then, based on the time T3 when the slope of the first echo leaves the minimum preset range and the end flight time T4 of the second echo, the echo intensity S1 of the non-superimposed hidden portion in the second echo is calculated according to the fitting function of the second echo. The normal echoes are all in a parabolic shape, the second echoes are also in a parabolic shape, the corresponding fitting function can be obtained by performing curve fitting on a plurality of echo signal data sampled in a time period from T3 to T4, and then the echo intensity S1 in the time period from T3 to T4 can be obtained according to the fitting function.
Finally, the echo intensity S2 of the superimposed hidden portion and the echo intensity S1 of the non-superimposed hidden portion in the second echo are added to obtain the total echo intensity S of the second echo, i.e., S = S1+ S2.
And 204, calculating the distance between the target and the laser radar according to the initial flight time T of the second echo, the total echo intensity S of the second echo, the duration T3-T1 of the slope of the first echo in the minimum preset range and the minimum value M of the slope of the first echo.
First, a corresponding first time calibration value, i.e. f2(S), is calculated from the total echo intensity S of the second echo, where f2 is a time calibration function based on echo intensity, and can be obtained by scaling.
Secondly, a second time calibration value, i.e. f3(T3-T1, M), is calculated from the duration T3-T1 of the slope of the first echo within a minimum preset range and the minimum value M of the slope of the first echo. Since the interference source is fragmented so that the energy loss is not negligible, the first echo needs to be used to calibrate the laser time of flight from the slope into the minimum preset range to the width (T3-T1) out of the minimum preset range; meanwhile, when the slope is less than 0, the position of H1 is not the peak value of the first echo, so the laser flight time needs to be calibrated by using the minimum slope value. Where f3 is a time calibration function based on duration (T3-T1) and slope minimum M, which can be obtained by scaling. Of course, if the minimum slope value is 0, the calibration value corresponding to the minimum slope value M is 0, and at this time, the second time calibration value is calculated by using only the duration (T3-T1) of the rising edge slope of the first echo within the minimum preset range.
Then, from the initial time-of-flight T of the second echo, the first time calibration value f2(S), and the second time calibration value f3(T3-T1, M), the laser time-of-flight T 'is calculated, i.e., T' = [ T + f2(S) + f3(T3-T1, M) ]/2, and the division by 2 is a time that is 2 times elapsed since the time of T is from the start of laser emission to the end of laser emission.
Finally, the distance L between the target and the laser radar is calculated according to the laser flight time T 'and the speed of light c, i.e. L = T' × c = [ T + f2(S) + f3(T3-T1, M) ] × c/2.
With further reference to fig. 9, since the rising edge time width W of the waveform is substantially linear with the peak height H, the waveform region of the first echo in the period from T0 to T1 (i.e. the waveform of the first echo before the slope enters the minimum preset range) may be approximated as a triangle, which is denoted as a first triangle; the waveform of the second echo in the time period from T to T3 (i.e. the waveform of the second echo superimposed with the hidden part) may also be approximated to a triangle, which is denoted as a second triangle. In step 203, the calculation method of the echo intensity S2 is specifically as follows:
firstly, according to the initial flight time T and the rest echo parameters of the second echo, calculating the ratio of the echo intensity S0 of the first echo before the slope enters the minimum preset range to the echo intensity S2 of the superimposed hidden part in the second echo by means of a triangular area proportional relation; wherein the remaining echo parameters include an initial flight time T0 of the first echo, a time T1 when the slope of the first echo enters a minimum preset range, an altitude H1 when the slope of the first echo enters the minimum preset range, a time T3 when the slope of the first echo leaves the minimum preset range, and an altitude H3 when the slope of the first echo leaves the minimum preset range. Specifically, with reference to fig. 4, the base of the first triangle is T1-T0, and the height is H1; the base of the second triangle is T3-T, and the height of the second triangle is H3. For calculation, a transition triangle can be created, and the base of the transition triangle is the same as that of the second triangle, namely T3-T; the height is the same as the height of the first triangle, H1, whose area can be denoted as S0'. The echo intensity in the corresponding time period area is expressed by the area of the triangle, and according to the proportional relation of the area of the triangle, the following relation is approximately realized: S0/S0 '= (T1-T0)/(T3-T), S2/S0' = H3/H1, whereby S0/S2= [ (T1-T0)/(T3-T) ] (H1/H3) can be obtained.
Then, based on the rough flight time T0 of the first echo and the time T1 when the slope of the first echo enters a minimum preset range, the echo intensity S0 of the first echo before the slope enters the minimum preset range, that is, the area of the parabolic waveform region in the period from T0 to T1, is calculated according to the fitting function of the rising edge of the first echo. Wherein the fitting function of the first echo rising edge can be obtained by curve fitting of a plurality of echo signal data sampled in the time period from T0 to T1.
Finally, according to the calculated echo intensity ratio S0/S2 and the echo intensity S0 of the first echo before the slope enters the minimum preset range, the echo intensity S2 of the superimposed hidden part in the second echo is calculated. Wherein S2= S0 [ (T3-T)/(T1-T0) ] (H3/H1).
By the method, the echo intensity S2 of the superimposed hidden part in the second echo can be calculated relatively accurately. In addition, in an alternative embodiment, to further simplify the calculation, S2 may also be calculated by using a triangle area formula directly according to T, T3 and H3, that is, S2= (T3-T) × H3/2; alternatively, the echo intensity S2 may also be calculated from a fit function of the second echoes directly based on T and T3. However, both methods do not use the real waveform of the first echo, but directly calculate the waveform of the superimposed hidden part in the second echo, so that compared with the first method, the method is coarser, the accuracy is reduced, but the method has the advantages of faster and simpler calculation, and the method can be used for fast calculation under the condition of lower error requirement.
It should be noted that, when calculating S2 by the first two methods, the waveform of the second echo in the time period from T to T3 is approximated to a triangle, that is, the rising edge of the second echo is approximated to a straight line. However, the rising edge in the actual waveform still has a certain radian and is not a complete straight line, so that a certain error still exists after approximation; in order to reduce the error, certain hardware circuit design or software design can be carried out during laser emission, so that the rising edge of the received echo signal is as close to a straight line as possible. The closer the rising edge of the actual waveform is to a straight line, the more accurate the echo intensity calculated when the waveform is approximated to a triangle, and the higher the final ranging accuracy.
Further, when the received echo signal is a normal echo, only one target echo is present on the time axis, or there are multiple echoes but the target echo can be clearly distinguished, and at this time, the corresponding normal echo calculation process specifically includes: and directly obtaining the total echo intensity S of the target echo according to the initial flight time of the target echo, the ending flight time of the target echo and the fitting function of the normal echo.
In summary, the method provided by the embodiment of the present invention can identify the specific echo based on the change of the slope of the waveform, and enter the specific echo calculation process, and when calculating, skillfully utilize the rising edge time width-peak height function relation of the normal echo, obtain the initial flight time T of the target echo by using the interference echo and the virtual echo of the target echo, further calculate the echo intensity of the superimposed and hidden portion in the target echo, finally obtain the total echo intensity T of the target echo, and perform distance calculation. Through the scheme, in a scene with interference sources such as fog, haze and dust, the distance measuring process can be guaranteed not to be affected by the interference sources, and the distance of the target echo in multi-echo superposition, namely the distance between the target and the laser radar, can be accurately and stably calculated.
