Description

Pulse Doppler laser radar speed and distance measurement external calibration device and method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of calibration, in particular to an external calibration device and method for speed and distance measurement of a pulse Doppler laser radar.
Background
The laser radar utilizes laser and tracers such as aerosol particles or gas molecules in the atmosphere to generate scattering, and quantitative profile type measurement of atmospheric parameters is realized through various scattering mechanisms. The pulse laser radar calculates the target distance by using the flight transition time of the light pulse, and calculates the radial speed of the target relative to the laser radar by using the Doppler frequency shift of the echo light. The commonly used laser radar ranging precision calibration comprises the following steps: (1) calculating the echo delay of the target reference object reflection by using the accurately known geometrical relationship; (2) the strong reflection waveform of the light pulse on the end face of the telescope is used as zero distance calculation. The commonly used laser radar speed measurement calibration scheme comprises the following steps: (1) the laser radar is placed on a mobile platform and actually measures and calculates the motion of a relative static target object; (2) and converging the laser beam on the rotating target for actual measurement and calculation.
The inventor finds that the existing distance measurement and speed measurement calibration method has certain limitation in the actual use process. In the first method of ranging, it is difficult to select a target reference object. Particularly for long-pulse laser radars, reference objects except a plurality of range gates need to be selected to avoid influence caused by blind areas, and the requirements for selecting a calibration site and the reference objects are high; in the second method, due to strong end reflection, a received return signal has obvious saturation topping, and an error is generated by using the morphological analysis of an echo. The first method of measuring speed requires a longer calibration site and a smooth-running platform. In the second method, the convergence shape of the emitted laser needs to be adjusted, and the geometric relationship needs to be accurately adjusted, so that the relationship between the convergence efficiency and the velocity component is ensured.
