Background
Millimeter-wave radars are radars that operate in the millimeter wave band (millimeter wave) for detection. Usually, the millimeter wave is in the frequency domain of 30 to 300GHz (with a wavelength of 1 to 10 mm). Millimeter-wave radar combines some of the advantages of microwave radar and photoelectric radar because the wavelength of millimeter waves is between that of microwaves and centimeter waves.
The detection point of the millimeter wave radar changes randomly along with the scattering intensity and the relative phase of different parts of a complex target, so that the wave front of the target echo phase is distorted, and the angle measurement error is inevitably caused by the inclination and random swing of the wave front on the aperture surface of the receiving antenna, namely the angle flicker phenomenon occurs. The angle flicker causes the target to jump in space, namely the target detection point is unstable, and in order to judge the stability degree of the detection point, the concept of a confidence coefficient is used for evaluation, so how to accurately evaluate the target detection confidence coefficient of the radar and the stability of the millimeter wave radar target detection point is a technical problem which needs to be solved urgently.

Thus, the appearances of the phrases "in one embodiment," "in an embodiment," "one example" or "an example" in various places throughout this specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment or example. Furthermore, the particular features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable combination and/or sub-combination in one or more embodiments or examples.
As shown in fig. 1, the present invention provides a method for determining confidence of target detection, including:
s101, receiving an echo signal fed back by a target aiming at a detection signal transmitted by a radar;
s102, acquiring an array signal based on the echo signal, wherein the array signal comprises amplitude phase information carried by the echo signal;
s103, carrying out beam forming on the array signals to obtain an angle spectrum of which the signal intensity changes along with the detection angle;
s104, determining a target main peak corresponding to a target detection angle and an associated main peak associated with the target main peak according to the angle spectrum, and determining a first intensity ratio according to peak intensity corresponding to the target main peak and peak intensity corresponding to the associated main peak;
s105, determining a second intensity ratio according to the peak intensity of the target main peak and the average intensity of the signal intensities corresponding to all angles in the field angle of the radar in the angle spectrum;
s106, determining a third intensity ratio according to the peak intensity of the target main peak and the total intensity of the signal intensities corresponding to all angles in the field angle of the radar in the angle spectrum;
s107, carrying out shape fitting on the target main peak in a preset mode to obtain an intensity value curve, and determining the difference degree between the intensity value curve and the target main peak;
and S108, determining the confidence degree of the target detection according to the first intensity ratio, the second intensity ratio, the third intensity ratio and the difference degree.
Before step S101, the radar transmits a probe signal to a target, and the radar may be a MIMO radar, where MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) technology refers to using Multiple transmitting antennas and Multiple receiving antennas at a transmitting end and a receiving end, respectively, and transmitting and receiving signals through the Multiple antennas at the transmitting end and the receiving end, so as to improve communication quality, and for example, for a MIMO radar with three transmitters and four receivers, a total of 12 channels for transmission and reception are formed. After receiving the detection signal, the target generates a corresponding echo signal and transmits the echo signal to the radar.
In step S102, the array signal includes amplitude phase information of echo signals received by all channels, for example, for a three-transmit four-receive MIMO radar, for a certain moving target, the speed is V, and the azimuth angle is θ, then different channels may have differences in amplitude phase information of echo signals received by different channels due to the arrangement of antennas.
In step S103, a beam forming is performed on the array signal to obtain an angle spectrum of which the signal strength varies with the detection angle, and the angle spectrum may be, for example, the detection angle as an independent variable and the signal power corresponding to each detection angle as a dependent variable.
In step S104, the confidence calculation is usually performed on two main peaks, which are the target main peak and the associated main peak, in the angle spectrum, if the main peak corresponding to the maximum signal intensity is the main lobe peak (i.e. the main lobe peak amplitude), and the main peak corresponding to the second largest signal intensity is the side lobe peak (i.e. the side lobe peak amplitude), in the angle spectrum, if the peak intensity of the main lobe peak is greatly different from the peak intensity of the side lobe peak, the detection angle corresponding to the main lobe peak is the target detection angle, the confidence calculation needs to be performed on the result obtained by detecting the main lobe peak, the target main peak is the main lobe peak, the associated main peak is the side lobe peak, and if the peak intensity of the main lobe peak is less different from the peak intensity of the side lobe peak in the angle spectrum, then the detection angles corresponding to the main lobe peak and the side lobe peak may both be the target detection angles, and therefore, the confidence degree of the detected results of the main lobe peak and the side lobe peak needs to be calculated, at this time, when the confidence degree corresponding to the main lobe peak is calculated, the target main peak is the main lobe peak, the associated main peak is the side lobe peak, and when the confidence degree corresponding to the side lobe peak is calculated, the target main peak is the side lobe peak, and the associated main peak is the main lobe peak.
In this step, a first intensity ratio is determined by the peak intensity of the target main peak and the peak intensity of the associated main peak, so as to reflect the difference between the signal intensities corresponding to the target main peak and the associated main peak.
For example, in step S104, determining the first intensity ratio according to the peak intensity corresponding to the target main peak and the peak intensity corresponding to the associated main peak includes:
determining a first intensity ratio according to:
Figure 560055DEST_PATH_IMAGE001
wherein dBR is the first intensity ratio, AmIs the peak intensity corresponding to the target main peak, AsThe peak intensity corresponding to the main peak of the correlation.
Wherein dBR is a self-defined variable, and R (ratio), dB is the meaning of log.
In step S105, each angle in the angle spectrum corresponds to a corresponding signal intensity, and the peak intensity of the main target peak and the average intensity of the signal intensities corresponding to all angles in the angle of view of the radar in the angle spectrum are determined as a second intensity ratio, so as to reflect the ratio of the peak intensity of the main target peak to the average intensity of all signal intensities.
Specifically, S105, determining the second intensity ratio according to the peak intensity corresponding to the target main peak and the average intensity of the signal intensities corresponding to all angles within the field angle of the radar in the angle spectrum includes:
determining a second intensity ratio according to:
Figure 8354DEST_PATH_IMAGE002
wherein SNR is a second intensity ratio, AmMean (a) is the average intensity of the signal intensities corresponding to all angles within the field of view of the radar in the angular spectrum, which is the peak intensity corresponding to the main peak of the target.
In the step, the SNR is Signal Noise Ratio, which means Signal-to-Noise Ratio.
In step S106, a third intensity ratio is determined according to the peak intensity corresponding to the target main peak and the total intensity of the signal intensities corresponding to all angles within the field angle of the radar in the angle spectrum, so as to reflect the proportion of the peak intensity of the target main peak to all the signal intensities.
Specifically, determining the third intensity ratio according to the peak intensity corresponding to the target main peak and the total intensity of the signal intensities corresponding to all angles within the field angle of the radar in the angle spectrum includes:
determining a third intensity ratio according to:
Figure 804403DEST_PATH_IMAGE003
wherein dBC is the third intensity ratio, AmSum (a) is the total intensity of signal intensities corresponding to all angles within the field angle of the radar in the angular spectrum, which is the peak intensity corresponding to the target main peak.
In this step, in dBC, C means Center Frequency, which is a concept of transition of an index dBC/Hz related to phase noise.
In step S107, firstly, a preset mode is required to perform shape fitting on the target main peak, and further, the obtaining of the intensity value curve by performing shape fitting on the target main peak in the preset mode includes:
acquiring signal intensity values corresponding to all angle values of a target main peak within a preset angle range;
and performing shape fitting on a curve formed by the signal intensity values corresponding to all the angle values in the preset range according to the following formula to obtain a fitted intensity value curve:
Figure DEST_PATH_IMAGE009
wherein a, h and k are all preset constants, ynIs the n angle value x in the preset rangenCorresponding fitted intensity values.
Exemplarily, in this step, the preset mode is to use an approximate model of the sinc function, and if the target main peak is a main lobe peak, when the shape of the target main peak is fitted, that is, the shape of the main lobe is fitted, that is, the preset angle range is an angle value ± a preset angle value corresponding to a peak intensity of the target main peak, and then the preset angle range is brought into the approximate model of the sinc function
Figure DEST_PATH_IMAGE011
And obtaining a fitted intensity value curve.
After determining the fitted intensity value curve, determining a difference degree between a main lobe shape corresponding to the target main peak and the fitted theoretical main lobe, that is, the intensity value curve, specifically, determining the difference degree between the intensity value curve and the target main peak includes:
determining the difference degree between the intensity value curve and the target main peak according to the following formula:
Figure DEST_PATH_IMAGE012
wherein dBV is the degree of difference, V is Variance, AnAn nth angle value x of the target main peak in a preset rangenCorresponding intensity value, ynIs the n angle value x in the preset rangenAnd N is the number of sampling points of the angle spectrum in the preset range.
In step S108, after determining the first intensity ratio, the second intensity ratio, the third intensity ratio and the difference degree, a confidence level calculation model is constructed, specifically, the confidence level calculation model is:
Figure 74978DEST_PATH_IMAGE008
wherein P is confidence, dBR is a first intensity ratio, SNR is a second intensity ratio, dBC is a third intensity ratio, dBV is a degree of difference, dBR is a first intensity ratio, dBR is a second intensity ratio, dBC is a third intensity ratio, dBV is a third intensity ratio, dBR is a first intensity ratio, a first intensity ratio and a second intensity ratio0、SNR0、dBC0、dBV0The first intensity ratio, the second intensity ratio, the third intensity ratio and the empirical reference value corresponding to the difference degree are respectively. dBR0、SNR0、dBC0、dBV0Actually, the method for obtaining the online line can be obtained by theoretical calculation, but actually, the method is obtained by counting the existing data, for example, a radar is installed on a vehicle, the road test is carried out on the vehicle, and meanwhile, the related data is collected and stored; counting dBR, SNR, dBC and dBV corresponding to the data; eliminating singular values to avoid influencing most data and marking the maximum value in the rest data as dBR0、SNR0、dBC0、dBV0
Therefore, when calculating the confidence, only the first intensity ratio, the second intensity ratio, the third intensity ratio and the difference degree need to be brought into the confidence calculation model to determine the confidence.
In the invention, a target main peak and an associated main peak are determined in an angle spectrum obtained by performing wave beam forming on an array signal, then a first intensity ratio, a second intensity ratio and a third intensity ratio are determined according to the signal intensity corresponding to the target main peak, the signal intensity of the associated main peak and the signal intensities corresponding to all angles in the angle spectrum, the difference degree is determined according to the target main peak and a fitted intensity value curve, a confidence coefficient calculation model is constructed according to the first intensity ratio, the second intensity ratio, the third intensity ratio and the difference degree, so as to determine the confidence coefficient of target detection, the confidence coefficient calculation combines the peak intensity corresponding to the target main peak of a target detection angle and the peak intensity, the average signal intensity and the ratio condition of the total signal intensity as well as the difference degree of the target main peak and the fitted intensity value curve, the credibility of the target detection is reflected from multiple aspects, and the reliability of confidence calculation is improved, so that the reliability of the target detection is improved.
