Some embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments and features of the embodiments described below can be combined with each other without conflict.
The basic principle of lidar range detection is the time-of-flight principle, i.e. range information is derived by calculating the time difference between the laser transmitted and received signals. When other laser radars exist in the same working scene, the laser radar system cannot accurately identify self signals when receiving interference from other laser radars. Or, when the radar transmits the second pulse, the echo of the first pulse is not received, so that the accurate echo time delay cannot be calculated, distance ambiguity can be generated, the distance ambiguity echo is generated, and one or more pulses can be received after delay. In such a case, a deviation of the monitoring data of the laser radar will be caused.
In order to overcome the above problem, embodiments of the present application provide a radar data processing method, which is applied to electronic devices in the following.
The embodiment of the application provides electronic equipment which can be a radar, and can also be computer equipment, server equipment, mobile phone equipment, a driving computer and the like which are communicated with the radar. Referring to fig. 1, a schematic structural diagram of an electronic device is shown. The electronic device comprises a processor 10, a memory 11, a bus 12. The processor 10 and the memory 11 are connected by a bus 12, and the processor 10 is configured to execute an executable module, such as a computer program, stored in the memory 11.
The processor 10 may be an integrated circuit chip having signal processing capabilities. In implementation, the steps of the radar data processing method may be implemented by instructions in the form of hardware integrated logic circuits or software in the processor 10. The Processor 10 may be a general-purpose Processor, and includes a Central Processing Unit (CPU), a Network Processor (NP), and the like; the device can also be a Digital Signal Processor (DSP), an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC), a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) or other Programmable logic device, a discrete Gate or transistor logic device, or a discrete hardware component.
The Memory 11 may comprise a high-speed Random Access Memory (RAM) and may further comprise a non-volatile Memory (non-volatile Memory), such as at least one disk Memory.
The bus 12 may be an ISA (Industry Standard Architecture) bus, a PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect) bus, an EISA (Extended Industry Standard Architecture) bus, or the like. Only one bi-directional arrow is shown in fig. 1, but this does not indicate only one bus 12 or one type of bus 12.
The memory 11 is used for storing programs, such as programs corresponding to the radar data processing apparatus. The radar data processing apparatus includes at least one software functional module which may be stored in the memory 11 in the form of software or firmware (firmware) or solidified in an Operating System (OS) of the electronic device. The processor 10, upon receiving the execution instruction, executes the program to implement the radar data processing method.
Possibly, the electronic device provided by the embodiment of the present application further includes a communication interface 13. The communication interface 13 is connected to the processor 10 via a bus.
The electronic device may be in communication with the lidar via the communication interface 13 to obtain monitoring data of the lidar, such as distance information monitored by the lidar.
It should be understood that the structure shown in fig. 1 is merely a structural schematic diagram of a portion of an electronic device, which may also include more or fewer components than shown in fig. 1, or have a different configuration than shown in fig. 1. The components shown in fig. 1 may be implemented in hardware, software, or a combination thereof.
The radar data processing method provided in the embodiment of the present application may be applied to, but is not limited to, the electronic device shown in fig. 1, and please refer to fig. 2 for a specific process, where the radar data processing method includes: s10 and S20 are specifically set forth below.
And S10, performing distance compensation on the initial distance information acquired by the detection window to obtain a compensation result.
The detection window comprises P continuous detection periods, each detection period comprises Q acquisition echoes, each acquisition echo corresponds to one piece of initial distance information, P is more than or equal to 2, and Q is more than or equal to 2.
Alternatively, the number of the initial range information is K, K = P × Q, and the initial range information is range information calculated based on the emission pulse and the collected echo of the laser radar in the detection period, but the collected echo may not be the collected echo generated by the laser pulse emitted in the detection period but be the last detection period, or even be based on other laser radars, so that the range compensation is required.
For example, assuming that the laser radar emits the first laser pulse in the first detection period, there are 3 detection targets in the scanning direction of the laser radar, which are target a at a distance of 50M, target B at 300M, and target C at 550M, respectively. Possibly, in a first detection period, the laser radar receives a collected echo corresponding to a first laser pulse reflected by the target a, and then the distance to the target a can be determined. In the second detection period, the laser radar receives the collected echo corresponding to the first laser pulse reflected by the target B, at this time, the laser radar transmits the second laser pulse in the second detection period, and the laser radar cannot distinguish whether the collected echo reflected by the target B corresponds to the first laser pulse or the second laser pulse. Similarly, in the third detection period, the laser radar receives the collected echo corresponding to the first laser pulse reflected by the target C, and the laser radar cannot distinguish whether the collected echo reflected by the target C corresponds to the first laser pulse, the second laser pulse and the third laser pulse.
Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, the lidar may determine, based on the emission time of the laser emission wave and the reception time of the collected echo in the p-th detection period, distance information corresponding to each collected echo in the p-th detection period. This may also lead to situations in which the monitored distance information does not correspond to the actual distance information.
In order to overcome the above problem, in the radar data processing method provided in the embodiment of the present application, distance compensation is performed on initial distance information acquired by a detection window to obtain a compensation result. Optionally, the initial distance information in the target detection period may be subjected to distance compensation based on the radar signal detection distance corresponding to the interval duration between the n detection periods before the target detection period and the target detection period.
And S20, determining a target echo corresponding to the detection window based on the compensation result.
It will be appreciated that by performing distance compensation, the probability that the compensation result includes correct distance information is improved. The correct distance information can reflect the distance of the object to be measured to the maximum extent. Of course, the compensation result may also include a part of erroneous distance information. Therefore, S20 needs to be executed to determine correct distance information from the compensation result, eliminate interference of incorrect distance information, and form a target echo corresponding to the detection window, thereby ensuring accuracy of the distance information in the target echo, and facilitating improvement of reliability of subsequent operations.
To sum up, an embodiment of the present application provides a radar data processing method, including: performing distance compensation on the initial distance information acquired by the detection window to obtain a compensation result; the detection window comprises P continuous detection periods, each detection period comprises Q acquisition echoes, each acquisition echo corresponds to one piece of initial distance information, P is more than or equal to 2, and Q is more than or equal to 2; and determining the target echo corresponding to the detection window based on the compensation result. By performing distance compensation, the probability that the compensation result includes correct distance information is improved. Correct distance information is determined from the compensation result, interference of wrong distance information is eliminated, target echoes corresponding to the detection window are formed, accuracy of the distance information in the target echoes is guaranteed, and reliability of follow-up operation is improved.
In an optional implementation manner, the compensation result includes initial distance information and corresponding compensation distance information collected in each target detection period, and the target detection period is any one detection period in the detection window. On this basis, regarding to S10 in fig. 2, the embodiment of the present application further provides a possible implementation manner to guarantee the accuracy of the compensated distance information. As shown in fig. 3, S10 includes: s101 and S103 are specifically set forth below.
S101, determining a compensation difference value corresponding to a target detection period.
The compensation difference value is a radar signal detection distance corresponding to the interval duration between n detection periods before the target detection period and the target detection period, and n is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to P-1. Optionally, each target detection period corresponds to n compensation differences, and the compensation differences correspond to radar signal detection distances corresponding to interval durations between n detection periods before the target detection period and the target detection period, respectively.
The compensation difference can also be understood as the maximum unambiguous distance of the target detection period.
Optionally, the interval duration between any two adjacent detection periods in each detection window is different, and the compensation difference is also different. For a radar system with a fixed pulse repetition time (i.e., a fixed duration of the interval between adjacent detection periods), if the true target range exceeds the range corresponding to the pulse repetition time, then the measured range will be the ambiguity range. The pulse repetition frequency of the emission signal of the laser radar adopts a pseudo-random sequence or a periodic transformation sequence, and the difference of the interval duration between any two adjacent detection periods in each detection window can be realized.
For example, the target detection period is the p-th detection period, the 1 st compensation difference corresponding to the target detection period is the radar signal detection distance corresponding to the interval duration between the p-th detection period and the p-1 st detection period, and the 2 nd compensation difference corresponding to the target detection period is the radar signal detection distance corresponding to the interval duration between the p-th detection period and the p-2 nd detection period.
S103, distance compensation is carried out on the initial distance information collected in the target detection period based on the compensation difference value, so that compensation distance information corresponding to the target detection period is obtained.
Optionally, assuming that collected echoes corresponding to laser pulses sent out before n detection periods may be received in the target detection period, n compensation differences exist in the target detection period, and referring to the above example, the n compensation differences are radar signal detection distances corresponding to interval durations between the p-th detection period and the p-1 th and p-2 nd \8230andbetween the p-n th detection periods, respectively. And respectively carrying out n times of distance compensation on each piece of initial distance information acquired in the target detection period, wherein different compensation difference values are adopted each time, and then the compensation distance information corresponding to the target detection period is obtained.
On the basis of fig. 3, regarding the content in S103, the embodiment of the present application further provides a possible implementation manner, please refer to fig. 4, where S103 includes: s103-1, as detailed below.
S103-1, acquiring the sum of each compensation difference value corresponding to each initial distance information acquired in the target detection period and the target detection period respectively as compensation distance information corresponding to the target detection period.
Alternatively, the compensation distance information corresponding to the target detection period may be acquired based on the following equation.

It should be understood that the amount of distance information in the compensation result after distance compensation is relatively large, and in order to facilitate identification and management, the embodiment of the present application further provides a possible implementation manner to mark a detection period of laser pulse emission corresponding to each compensation distance information and an identifier of an original collected echo corresponding to each compensation distance information, specifically, please refer to the following.

Optionally, distance information in the compensation result
Figure F_221202164429542_542176015
The total number of the detection windows is M, and the value of M is related to the number of detection periods in the detection window, the number of collected echoes in the detection period and the number of compensation difference values corresponding to the detection period. The compensation result may be stored in a matrix form, but is not limited thereto.
In a possible implementation scenario, zero values corresponding to zero echoes may exist in the initial distance information corresponding to the acquired echoes of the target detection period, which indicates that no real target object is measured and is not real distance information, so that interference caused by the real target object needs to be eliminated, and only the initial distance information corresponding to the non-zero echoes is subjected to distance compensation. On this basis, for the content in S10, the embodiment of the present application further provides a possible implementation manner, please refer to fig. 5, and S10 further includes: s102 is specifically described as follows.
And S102, eliminating zero values in the initial distance information corresponding to the target detection period.
It should be understood that S102 may be performed before S103.
The embodiment of the present application further provides an example of distance compensation, and please refer to the following.
Assume that in the simulation scenario, there are two targets, target 1: a 100m × 50m rectangle, range radar 305m; target 2: a 10m × 16m rectangle, 20m from radar; adding part of random noise in the scene. The pulse repetition period of the emitted laser pulse is a random number between 1.4us and 1.8us.
Step 1, the number of detection cycles P =3 in the acquired detection window, and the number of acquired echoes Q =3 in each detection cycle, that is, 9 pieces of initial distance information (also called echo measurement values) are total, as shown in table 1.

It should be understood that, if a compensation result is directly output, a part of erroneous distance information exists in the compensated distance information obtained after distance compensation, which will cause an error in the monitoring data of the laser radar and affect the use of subsequent steps, so that a target echo corresponding to a detection window needs to be further determined based on the compensation result, where the target echo includes at least one piece of target distance information. On this basis, as for the content of S20 in fig. 2, the embodiment of the present application further provides a possible implementation manner, please refer to fig. 6, where S20 includes: s201 and S202 are specifically set forth below.
S201, screening a first distance set from the compensation result.
The number of the first-class distance information in the first-class distance set is greater than or equal to a first preset number value. The first predetermined quantity value is, for example, cnTHr is greater than or equal to 2, the first-type distance information is any one distance information (initial distance information or compensation distance information) in the compensation result, a difference between any two adjacent first-type distance information is smaller than a predetermined first distance difference, and/or a difference between any two first-type distance information is smaller than a predetermined second distance difference.
It should be understood that even the initial range information (a.k.a., echo measurements) from the same target are not exactly the same, but rather there is some tolerance. The tolerance is recorded as the first distance difference and/or the second distance difference. The value of the first distance difference and/or the second distance difference is related to the laser radar system.
Alternatively, whether the target is a real target is determined by counting points close in distance. When the number of the points with close distances exceeds cnTHr, the part of the points with close distances is considered to be from the real target and can be used as the first-class distance set.
S202, determining target distance information from each first-type distance set.
Optionally, any one of the first-type distance sets is determined as the target distance information, or a certain specific one of the first-type distance sets is determined as the target distance information.
On the basis of fig. 6, in order to improve the screening efficiency of the first-class distance set, regarding the content in S201, the embodiment of the present application further provides a possible implementation manner, please refer to fig. 7, in which S201 includes: s201-1 and S201-2 are specifically described as follows.

S201-2B, determining whether the distance information quantity in the second type distance set is larger than a first preset quantity value. If yes, executing S201-2C; if not, S201-2D is executed.
Assuming that cnTHr is equal to 2, the number of distance information in the two second-type distance sets shown in table 3 is 3, and is greater than cnTHr, the two second-type distance sets shown in table 3 are both the first-type distance sets, and at this time, S201-2C is performed. Otherwise, when the number is insufficient, it is not the distance information fed back by the real target, then S201-2D is performed.
S201-2C, determining the second distance set as the first distance set.
S201-2D, deleting or discarding the second distance set.
On the basis of fig. 6, for the content in S202, the embodiment of the present application further provides a possible implementation manner, please refer to fig. 9, where S202 includes: s202-1, as detailed below.
