Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, the present application is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.
Specific implementations of the present application are described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
Fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a receiving system of a lidar provided in an embodiment of the present application, where the receiving system 100 of the lidar includes a receiving element 101, a polarization beam splitting element 102, and a detector assembly;
the receiving element 101 is configured to receive reflected light of the target to be measured, and transmit the received reflected light to an incident surface of the polarization beam splitting element 102;
the polarization beam splitting element 102 is configured to separate a p-polarization component from an s-polarization component in the reflected light transmitted by the receiving element 101, and transmit the p-polarization component and the s-polarization component to the detector assembly;
the detector assembly comprises a first detector 103 and a second detector 104, the first detector 103 being arranged to detect the p-polarization component and the second detector 104 being arranged to detect the s-polarization component.
In an example of the embodiment, the reflected light of the target to be measured may be reflected light of the target to be measured after being irradiated by an external light source, a laser, or an illumination light source, and the receiving element 101 may be a single lens, a lens group, a fresnel lens, or the like; the first detector 103 and the second detector 104 may be photodiodes, photomultipliers or avalanche photodiodes.
The receiving system of laser radar that this embodiment provided, through polarization beam splitting component and the detector subassembly that sets up, the p in the reverberation that the receiving element was collected, s polarization component separate to detect respectively by two detectors, utilize the polarization difference to realize the material appraisal to the target that awaits measuring, receiving system's overall structure is simple, and the facilitate promotion is used.
The polarization beam splitting element utilizes the principle that light has different refractive indexes in different media, and as shown in fig. 4, the reflection phenomenon of light can be analyzed by the boundary condition of an electromagnetic field according to the electromagnetic theory of light. Splitting the electric vector of the incident light into a p-polarized component E parallel to the plane of incidence p And an s-polarized component E perpendicular to the plane of incidence s The reflectivity R of the p-polarized component in the reflected light p Reflectivity R of s-polarization component s Respectively as follows:
in which there is n 1 sin i 1 =n 2 sin i 2 ,n 1 And n 2 Refractive indices of air and of the object, i 1 For the angle of incidence of light on the object, n if the light is incident on the glass from air 1 =1,n 2 Reflectance R of =1.5,p polarization component p Reflectivity R of s-polarization component s The curve with the incident angle is shown in fig. 5. It can be seen that for a specular object such as glass, the reflectivity of the p-polarized component is always higher than that of the s-polarized component.
Thus, in the context of some embodiments, for a specular reflective object such as glass, smooth metal, etc., when the incident light is linearly polarized, the target reflected light is approximately linearly polarized:
when the incident light is linearly polarized light in the p polarization direction, p polarization components in the reflected light are more, and s polarization directions are less;
when the incident light is linearly polarized light in the s-polarization direction, the s-polarization component in the reflected light is more, and the p-polarization direction is less;
when the incident light is completely unpolarized light, the target reflected light is unpolarized light, and the s-polarization component is always higher than the p-polarization component.
For a general rough object, when light is incident on the surface of the object, the surface reflects the light in all directions, so that no matter whether the incident light is linearly polarized light or not, the target reflected light is always unpolarized light, and the p-polarized component is almost equivalent to the s-polarized component.
In summary, the polarization characteristics of the target light, i.e., the p-polarization component and the s-polarization component, are measured simultaneously with the measurement of the intensity of the target light, and the target component can be identified.

In this embodiment, the p and s polarization components are detected by two detectors with different sensitivities, so that the requirement on the dynamic range of the detectors is reduced, and the construction cost of the device is further reduced.
In addition, in some embodiment scenarios, for example, when the target object (i.e., the target to be detected) is a specular reflection object such as glass or smooth metal, the first detector 103 and the second detector 104 included in the detector assembly may also be detectors with the same sensitivity, and the detectors with the same sensitivity may simplify the complexity of the receiving system in building, reduce the difficulty in distinguishing, and facilitate maintenance.

In an example of this embodiment, the set wavelength light at least includes p-direction polarized light and s-direction polarized light, and the lidar may be applied to substance identification or other remote sensing fields, and has the following modes when performing substance identification:
emitting p-direction polarized light through the laser 201 to irradiate a target to be detected, namely a target object, wherein if the intensity detected by the first detector 103 is higher than that detected by the second detector 104, the target object is glass or metal; if the intensity detected by the first detector 103 is equivalent to the intensity detected by the second detector 104, the target object is a common diffuse reflection object;
