The laser pulse ranging is performed by transmitting laser pulses and receiving laser echo signals reflected by the object 20 to be measured; and the distance between the laser pulse ranging apparatus 10 and the object 20 to be measured is obtained by recording the time period from the emission of the laser pulse to the reception of the laser echo signal. Theoretically, the time period from the time of transmitting the laser pulse to the time of receiving the start signal of the laser echo signal is selected, and the distance between the laser pulse ranging apparatus 10 and the object 20 to be measured is deduced to be the most accurate. However, because the laser echo signal contains an interference signal, the laser echo signal needs to be compared and shaped by using threshold voltage so as to filter the interference signal, but the shaped laser echo signal loses the starting point signal of the laser echo signal. And, the existing laser pulse ranging technology uses a time period from a time point of a first intersection point of the value of the laser echo signal and the threshold voltage value to a time point of transmitting the laser pulse as an echo time period T2, so as to determine a distance between the laser pulse ranging apparatus 10 and the measured object 20. For the measured object 20 with different reflectivities, the corresponding front slope of the laser echo signal is inconsistent with the pulse width, and in general, the higher the reflectivity of the measured object 20 is, the larger the front slope of the laser echo signal is, and the larger the pulse width is. For a certain threshold voltage and the same distance, the echo durations T2 of the objects 20 with different reflectivities are not consistent, so that errors exist in measurement; in general, the echo length T2 of the object 20 with high reflectivity is closer to the length of the laser pulse to the start signal of the laser echo signal. As can be seen from the above, in the conventional laser pulse ranging technique, when the distances of the objects 20 having different reflectivities are measured at the same distance, there is an error in the obtained result.
The invention provides a laser pulse ranging method.
Referring to fig. 1, in an embodiment of the present invention, the laser pulse ranging method includes:
Step S100, emitting a laser pulse signal and starting a first timing;
Step 200, receiving and shaping a laser echo signal, determining a rising edge trigger time length T3 when a first rising edge signal in the shaped laser echo signal is received, and determining a falling edge trigger time length T4 when a first falling edge signal is received;
Step S300, determining an echo time length T2 according to the rising edge trigger time length T3, the falling edge trigger time length T4, and a preset time length, and determining a distance between the laser pulse ranging device 10 and the measured object 20 according to the echo time length T2.
In this embodiment, the laser pulse ranging method is applied to a laser pulse ranging apparatus 10, which has a laser transmitting device capable of transmitting laser light to an object 20 to be measured and receiving a laser echo signal reflected by the object 20 to be measured; the laser emitting device may be a ruby solid state laser, a neodymium glass solid state laser, or a double hetero gallium arsenide semiconductor laser, etc. The means for receiving the laser echo signal reflected by the object 20 in the laser ranging apparatus may be an optical means and a photodiode, wherein the photodiode may be an avalanche photodiode.
The laser pulse ranging apparatus 10 transmits a laser pulse signal to the object 20 to be measured and starts a first timing; considering that the laser pulse ranging apparatus 10 may perform laser pulse ranging by emitting laser pulses to the same object 20 multiple times. Here, the laser pulse ranging device 10 emits a laser pulse and the processing of this laser pulse is assumed to be the first laser pulse emitted by the laser pulse ranging device 10 and its processing; it will be readily appreciated that the laser pulse ranging apparatus 10 processes each laser pulse it emits in accordance with the process it processes the first laser pulse. The laser echo signal is a signal transmitted by the laser pulse ranging apparatus 10 through the measured object 20, and the signal propagates through a medium, which is an object that can pass through laser light, and may be air, glass, water, or the like. Further, the medium may be composed of several objects that can be laser light, for example: the laser echo signal may first pass through the atmosphere and then enter the glass and then pass through the atmosphere into a device for receiving the laser echo signal in the laser ranging apparatus. The propagation of the laser echo signal in the medium may lead to interference signals in the laser echo signal, and furthermore, the means for receiving the laser echo signal in the laser ranging device are typically optical means, which inevitably receive other light signals when receiving the laser echo signal, for example: ambient light. The other light signals and the interference signals of the laser echo signals carried by the medium form interference signals in the laser echo signals received by the laser ranging equipment. This interference signal may cause the laser pulse ranging apparatus 10to make a false decision, so that the laser pulse ranging apparatus 10 may misconsider the interference signal as a laser echo signal reflected by the object 20. To avoid this, the laser pulse ranging device 10 shapes the received laser echo signal. Setting a threshold voltage, which may be set by a device user or by a device producer; the laser echo signal received by the laser pulse ranging device 10 is compared and shaped with the threshold voltage, and the laser echo signal can be compared with the threshold voltage by a comparator and then filtered to remove interference signals. specifically, when the value of the laser echo signal is smaller than the value of the threshold voltage, the comparator outputs a low level, and the low level may be a 0 level or a level within other self-defined level ranges. For example: the voltage less than 5V is set to a low level, and at this time 3V is set to a low level. When the value of the laser echo signal is greater than or equal to the value of the threshold voltage, the comparator outputs a high level, which may be a fixed value, for example: a threshold voltage value; the high level may also be a value in a range of levels corresponding to low levels, such as: the voltage less than 5V is set to a low level, and 7V is set to a high level at this time. In this embodiment, 5V is used as one of the high and low level demarcation points, and in other embodiments of the present invention, the high and low level demarcation points are not necessarily 5V.
And receiving and shaping the laser echo signals, determining rising edge trigger time length T3 when a first rising edge signal in the shaped laser echo signals is received, and determining falling edge trigger time length T4 when a first falling edge signal is received. In this embodiment, when the value of the laser echo signal is equal to the threshold voltage value, a rising edge signal or a falling edge signal may occur in the shaped laser echo signal. When the laser echo signal value is changed from being smaller than the threshold voltage value to being equal to the threshold voltage value, a rising edge signal appears in the shaped laser echo signal; and when the laser echo signal value is larger than the threshold voltage value and becomes larger than the threshold voltage value, the shaped laser echo signal can generate a falling edge signal. It should be understood that one laser pulse is a pulse waveform, and the laser echo signal is a waveform correspondingly; it is easy to understand that the intersection of one waveform and one straight line parallel to the time axis is at most two. So that the intersection point of the laser echo signal corresponding to one laser pulse signal and the threshold voltage value is at most two; that is, from the shaped laser echo signal, a pair of the associated rising edge signal and falling edge signal can determine the laser echo signal corresponding to one laser pulse. When a first rising edge signal appears in the shaped laser echo signal, the laser pulse ranging device 10 may determine a rising edge trigger duration T3; the rising edge trigger duration T3 is a duration between a time when the first rising edge signal occurs and a time when the first timing starts. When a first falling edge signal appears in the shaped laser echo signal, the laser pulse ranging device 10 may determine a falling edge trigger duration T4; the falling edge trigger duration T4 is a duration between a time when the first falling edge signal occurs and a time when the first timing starts.
And determining an echo time length T2 according to the rising edge trigger time length T3, the falling edge trigger time length T4 and a preset time length, and determining the distance between the laser pulse ranging device 10 and the measured object 20 according to the echo time length T2. In this embodiment, the echo duration T2 is a duration between a time when the laser pulse ranging apparatus 10 starts the first timing and a time when the start signal of the laser echo signal is received; the distance between the laser pulse ranging apparatus 10 and the object 20 to be measured is most accurate using the echo time period T2. The echo time length T2 and the first time length T8 become a certain functional relation; the first duration T8 is a duration between a time corresponding to a midpoint of the laser echo signal and a time when the laser pulse ranging apparatus 10 starts the first timing. When the laser device and the laser device drive are determined, under the condition of the same distance, the time difference between the echo time length T2 of the laser echo signals measured by targets with different reflectivities and the first time length T8 is basically unchanged; thus, the echo time period T2 may be obtained from the first time period T8. The difference between the first duration T8 and the echo duration T2 is a preset duration, and the preset duration can be set by a user or stored in a storage device in the laser ranging device and operated by program mobilization. The laser echo signal corresponding to one laser pulse signal is approximately symmetrical about the midpoint of the laser echo signal; the average value calculation may be performed on the rising edge trigger duration T3 and the falling edge trigger duration T4 to obtain the first time duration T8, and then the first time duration T8 and the preset time duration are differenced to obtain the echo duration T2. And determining the distance between the laser pulse ranging device 10 and the measured object 20 according to the echo duration T2, specifically, the distance is half of the product of the echo duration T2 and the light speed.
The invention provides a laser pulse ranging method, a control device, a circuit and equipment thereof, wherein the method comprises the steps of transmitting a laser pulse signal and starting a first timing; receiving and shaping a laser echo signal, determining rising edge trigger time length T3 when a first rising edge signal in the shaped laser echo signal is received, and determining falling edge trigger time length T4 when a first falling edge signal is received; and determining an echo time length T2 according to the rising edge trigger time length T3, the falling edge trigger time length T4 and a preset time length, and determining the distance between the laser pulse ranging device 10 and the measured object 20 according to the echo time length T2. In the invention, the laser pulse is emitted and the timing is started; receiving and shaping a laser echo signal to obtain a rising edge trigger time length T3 and a falling edge trigger time length T4; and determining the distance between the laser pulse ranging device 10 and the measured object 20 according to the rising edge trigger time length T3, the falling edge trigger time length T4 and a preset time length. Thereby improving the accuracy of laser pulse ranging.
Referring to fig. 2, in an embodiment of the present invention, the step of determining the rising edge trigger duration T3 when receiving the first rising edge signal in the laser echo signal specifically includes:
step S210, when the voltage of the shaped laser echo signal reaches the threshold voltage for the first time, determining that a first rising edge signal is received, and determining the duration corresponding to the current first timing as the rising edge trigger duration T3;
the step of determining the falling edge trigger duration T4 when the first falling edge signal is received specifically includes:
step S220, when the voltage of the shaped laser echo signal reaches the threshold voltage for the second time, determining that the first falling edge signal is received, and determining the duration corresponding to the current first timing as the falling edge trigger duration T4.
In this embodiment, when the value of the laser echo signal is equal to the threshold voltage value, a rising edge signal or a falling edge signal may occur in the shaped laser echo signal. When the laser echo signal value is changed from being smaller than the threshold voltage value to being equal to the threshold voltage value, a rising edge signal appears in the shaped laser echo signal; and when the laser echo signal value is larger than the threshold voltage value and becomes larger than the threshold voltage value, the shaped laser echo signal can generate a falling edge signal. At least two laser echo signals corresponding to one laser pulse are equal to the threshold voltage value, wherein a first laser echo signal value equal to the threshold voltage value is shaped to generate a rising edge signal, and a second laser echo signal value equal to the threshold voltage value is shaped to generate a falling edge signal. When the voltage of the shaped laser echo signal reaches the threshold voltage for the first time, determining that a first rising edge signal is received, and determining the duration corresponding to the current first timing as the rising edge trigger duration T3; correspondingly, when the voltage of the shaped laser echo signal reaches the threshold voltage for the second time, determining that the first falling edge signal is received, and determining the duration corresponding to the current first timing as the falling edge trigger duration T4.
Referring to fig. 3 and fig. 7, in an embodiment of the present invention, the step of determining the echo time length T2 according to the rising edge trigger time length T3, the falling edge trigger time length T4, and a preset time length specifically includes:
Step S310, performing average calculation on the rising edge trigger time length T3 and the falling edge trigger time length T4 to obtain a first time length T8;
Step S320, making a difference between the first time period T8 and the preset time period to obtain the echo time period T2.
In this embodiment, the echo duration T2 and the first duration T8 become a certain functional relationship; the first duration T8 is a duration between a time corresponding to a midpoint of the laser echo signal and a time when the laser pulse ranging apparatus 10 starts the first timing. When the laser device and the laser device drive are determined, under the condition of the same distance, the time difference between the echo time length T2 of the laser echo signals measured by targets with different reflectivities and the first time length T8 is basically unchanged; thus, the echo time period T2 may be obtained from the first time period T8. The difference between the first duration T8 and the echo duration T2 is a preset duration. The laser echo signal corresponding to one laser pulse signal is approximately symmetrical about the midpoint of the laser echo signal; the average value calculation may be performed on the rising edge trigger duration T3 and the falling edge trigger duration T4 to obtain the first time duration T8, and then the first time duration T8 and the preset time duration are differenced to obtain the echo duration T2. And determining the distance between the laser pulse ranging device 10 and the measured object 20 according to the echo duration T2, specifically, the distance is half of the product of the echo duration T2 and the light speed.
The mean value operation may be to calculate an arithmetic average of the rising edge trigger time period T3 and the falling edge trigger time period T4; and performing average value operation on the rising edge trigger time length T3 and the falling edge trigger time length T4 to obtain a first time length T8. The preset time length can be obtained by collecting a first time length T8 and an echo time length T2 at each distance by a range finder of fixed hardware and differencing the first time length T8 and the echo time length T2 at each distance; the preset duration table may be stored in the memory of the laser pulse ranging device 10, and the laser pulse ranging device 10 may obtain the echo duration T2 according to the preset duration table and the first duration T8, so that the distance between the laser pulse ranging device 10 and the measured object 20 is obtained from the echo duration T2.
The present invention also proposes a control device for a laser pulse ranging apparatus 10, the control device comprising a memory and a processor, a laser pulse ranging program stored on the memory and executed by the processor, which when executed by the processor, implements a laser pulse ranging method as any one of the above.
It should be noted that, since the control device of the present invention includes all the technical solutions of all the embodiments of the laser pulse ranging method, at least all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the laser pulse ranging method are not described in detail herein.
The invention also provides a laser pulse ranging circuit 110 which is applied to the laser pulse ranging device 10, wherein the laser pulse ranging device 10 comprises a light emitting circuit 120 and a receiving circuit 130.
Referring to fig. 4 and 7, in an embodiment of the present invention, the laser pulse ranging circuit 110 includes:
a main control circuit 1110, wherein the main control circuit 1110 is electrically connected with the light emitting circuit 120 and is used for controlling the light emitting circuit 120 to emit a laser pulse signal; the master control circuit 1110 is further electrically connected to the comparison shaping circuit 1120, and is configured to output a threshold voltage to the comparison shaping circuit 1120;
The input end of the comparison and shaping circuit 1120 is electrically connected with the output end of the receiving circuit 130, and is used for shaping the laser echo signal received and output by the receiving circuit 130 according to the threshold voltage and outputting a corresponding shaped laser echo signal;

In this embodiment, the light emitting circuit 120 may include a ruby solid state laser, a neodymium glass solid state laser, a double hetero gallium arsenide semiconductor laser, or the like. The receiving circuit 130 may include an optical device and a photodiode, wherein the photodiode may be an avalanche photodiode.
The main control circuit 1110 is electrically connected to the light emitting circuit 120, and is configured to control the light emitting circuit 120 to emit a laser pulse signal; the master control circuit 1110 may be implemented by a master controller 11110, for example, an MCU, a DSP (DIGITAL SIGNAL Process, digital signal processing Chip), an FPGA (Field Programmable GATE ARRAY, programmable gate array Chip), a PLC, an SOC (System On Chip), or the like.

In addition, the master circuit 1110 outputs a threshold voltage to the comparison and shaping circuit 1120, which may be set by a user or by a producer of the laser pulse ranging circuit 110.

For example: the voltage less than 5V is set to a low level, and at this time 3V is set to a low level. When the value of the laser echo signal is greater than or equal to the value of the threshold voltage, the comparator outputs a high level, which may be a fixed value, for example: a threshold voltage value; the high level may also be a value in a range of levels corresponding to low levels, such as: the voltage less than 5V is set to a low level, and 7V is set to a high level at this time. In this embodiment, 5V is used as one of the high and low level demarcation points, and in other embodiments of the present invention, the high and low level demarcation points are not necessarily 5V.
The master circuit 1110 determines a rising edge trigger period T3 when receiving a first rising edge signal in the shaped laser echo signals output by the comparing and shaping circuit 1120, and determines a falling edge trigger period T4 when receiving a first falling edge signal. In this embodiment, when the value of the laser echo signal is equal to the threshold voltage value, a rising edge signal or a falling edge signal may occur in the shaped laser echo signal. When the laser echo signal value is changed from being smaller than the threshold voltage value to being equal to the threshold voltage value, a rising edge signal appears in the shaped laser echo signal; and when the laser echo signal value is larger than the threshold voltage value and becomes larger than the threshold voltage value, the shaped laser echo signal can generate a falling edge signal. The main controller 11110 receives the shaped laser echo signal, and determines a rising edge trigger duration T3 when receiving a first rising edge signal; the rising edge trigger period T3 is a period between a time when the main control circuit 1110 starts the first timing and a time when the main control circuit 1110 receives the first rising edge signal. The main controller 11110 receives the shaped laser echo signal, and determines a falling edge trigger duration T4 when receiving a first falling edge signal; the falling edge trigger period T4 is a period between a time when the master control circuit 1110 starts the first timing and a time when the master control circuit 1110 receives the first falling edge signal. The intersection point of the laser echo signal corresponding to one laser pulse signal and the threshold voltage value is at most two; that is, from the shaped laser echo signal, a pair of the associated rising edge signal and falling edge signal can determine the laser echo signal corresponding to one laser pulse.
And determining an echo time length T2 according to the rising edge trigger time length T3, the falling edge trigger time length T4 and a preset time length, and determining the distance between the laser pulse ranging device 10 and the measured object 20 according to the echo time length T2. In this embodiment, the echo duration T2 is a duration between a time when the laser pulse ranging apparatus 10 starts the first timing and a time when the start signal of the laser echo signal is received; the distance between the laser pulse ranging apparatus 10 and the object 20 to be measured is most accurate using the echo time period T2. The echo time length T2 and the first time length T8 become a certain functional relation; the first duration T8 is a duration between a time corresponding to a midpoint of the laser echo signal and a time when the laser pulse ranging apparatus 10 starts the first timing. When the laser device and the laser device drive are determined, under the condition of the same distance, the time difference between the echo time length T2 of the laser echo signals measured by targets with different reflectivities and the first time length T8 is basically unchanged; thus, the echo time period T2 may be obtained from the first time period T8. The difference between the first duration T8 and the echo duration T2 is a preset duration, and the preset duration can be set by a user or stored in a storage device in the laser ranging device and operated by program mobilization. The laser echo signal corresponding to one laser pulse signal is approximately symmetrical about the midpoint of the laser echo signal; the average value calculation may be performed on the rising edge trigger duration T3 and the falling edge trigger duration T4 to obtain the first time duration T8, and then the first time duration T8 and the preset time duration are differenced to obtain the echo duration T2. And determining the distance between the laser pulse ranging device 10 and the measured object 20 according to the echo duration T2, specifically, the distance is half of the product of the echo duration T2 and the light speed.
