如图2中所示,本申请实施例提供了一种雷达,包括:振荡器201、定向耦合器202、发射天线203、接收天线204、混频器205和处理器206。为清楚阐述方案,本申请实施例以雷达信号为调频连续波为例进行说明。
振荡器201会产生调频连续波(frequency modulated continuous wave,FMCW)并输出给定向耦合器202。
其中,该调频连续波可以为线性调频连续波。线性调频连续波为频率随时间线性增加或减小的电磁波,即在一时间单元内,调频连续波的频率与时间呈线性关系,或者说,单位时间内,所述调频连续波的频率变化量的绝对值相同(对于锯齿波来说,频率变化量相同;对于三角波来说,上升沿和下降沿的频率变化量的绝对值相同)。在本申请实施例中,调频连续波的频率的斜率指调频连续波的频率与时间之间的线性关系的斜率(具体可以参考图4)。斜率的符号用于指示斜率为正或负。当频率随时间线性增加时为上升沿,斜率的符号为正。当频率随时间线性减小时为下降沿,斜率的符号为负。在本申请实施例中,示例性的以线性调频连续波为例进行说明,但不限定调频连续波必须为线性调频连续波。
定向耦合器202一方面将调频连续波输出给混频器205作为本振信号,另一方面将调频连续波输出给发射天线203,通过发射天线203发射出去。调频连续波经目标物体反射后成为调频连续波的反射波。
接收天线204接收调频连续波的反射波后输出给混频器205。
混频器205将调频连续波与调频连续波的反射波进行混频,得到中频(intermediate frequency,IF)信号,其中,中频信号为调频连续波与调频连续波的反射波在同一时刻的频率之差所形成的信号,即中频信号的频率为调频连续波与调频连续波的反射波在同一时刻的频率之差。
混频器205将混频得到的中频信号经过低通滤波器进行滤波,再经过放大后输出给处理器206,处理器206对中频信号进行处理(例如,对中频信号进行快速傅里叶变换,进行频谱分析等)后得到目标物体的距离信息、速度信息和角度信息中的至少一个。
本申请实施例中,目标物体的距离信息、速度信息和角度信息,或者,目标物体的距离、速度和角度,或者,目标物体的相对距离、相对速度和相对角度,都是指目标物体相对发射调频连续波的雷达而言,本申请并不限定具体名称。
需要说明的是,当该雷达安装在车辆上时,处理器206可以将目标物体的距离信息、速度信息和角度信息中的至少一个发送给车辆上的控制器用于控制车辆。
调频连续波的波形一般是锯齿波或者三角波,下面以调频连续波为三角波为例详细介绍一下雷达的工作原理。
如图3所示,为三角波形式的调频连续波的时间幅度的示意图。调频连续波的频率在时间单元[0,T/2]内随着时间增加逐渐增加,而幅度保持不变,其中,T为三角波的周期。如图4所示,为三角波形式的调频连续波的时间频率的示意图,调频连续波的频率在时间单元[0,T/2]内随着时间增加线性增加ΔF,调频连续波的频率在时间单元[T/2,T]内随着时间增加线性减小ΔF,其中,ΔF为调频连续波的频率的最大变化范围。
如图5所示,如果目标物体相对于雷达处于相对静止中,则调频连续波与调频连续波的反射波的形状相同,但是在时间上有一个时延Δt。
调频连续波x
1为:
公式1
调频连续波的反射波x
2为:
公式2
调频连续波x
1与调频连续波的反射波x
2之间的时延Δt和目标物体的距离R满足:
公式3
其中,c为光速。
调频连续波和调频连续波的反射波在混频器205中进行混频,得到的中频信号x
out为:
公式4
另外,如图5所示,中频信号的频率IF为调频连续波的频率的斜率s与时延Δt的 乘积,即:
公式5
其中,T为三角波的周期,ΔF为调频连续波的最大变化范围。
所以目标物体的距离R为:
公式6
通过上面的推导可以看出,对于相对于雷达处于相对静止的目标物体来说,调频连续波与调频连续波的反射波在同一时刻的频率之差(中频信号的频率IF)和调频连续波与调频连续波的反射波之间的时延Δt呈线性关系,即目标物体的距离越远,雷达接收到的调频连续波的反射波的时间就越晚,调频连续波与调频连续波的反射波在同一时刻的频率之差(中频信号的频率IF)越大,因此通过判断中频信号频率IF的大小就可以得到目标物体的距离。
如图6所示,如果目标物体相对于雷达处于相对运动中,则调频连续波的反射波的频率中包括由目标物体的相对运动所引起的多普勒频移f
d。
因此,与三角波的上升沿对应的中频信号的频率f
b+为:
f
b+=IF-f
d
公式7
与三角波的下降沿对应的中频信号的频率f
b-为:
f
b-=IF+f
d
公式8
公式7、8结合公式5可以得到相对于雷达处于相对运动的目标物体的距离R为:
公式9
还可以得到相对于雷达处于相对运动的目标物体的速度为:
公式10
通过上面的推导可以看出,对于相对于雷达处于相对运动的目标物体来说,通过检测三角波上升沿的中频信号的频率f
b+和下降沿的中频信号的频率f
b-,就可以得到目标物体的距离信息或速度信息。
下面以调频连续波为锯齿波为例详细介绍一下雷达的工作原理。
对于锯齿波来说,其测距原理与三角波类似。如图7中所示,调频连续波与调频连续波的反射波之间的时延τ,锯齿波的周期为T
c。
调频连续波x
1为:
x
1(t)=sin(ω
1t+φ

公式11
调频连续波的反射波x
2为:
x
2(t)=sin(ω
1(t-τ)+φ
1)=sin(ω
1t-2πf
cτ+φ
1)
公式12
其中,ω
1为调频连续波x
1的角速度,φ
1为调频连续波x
1的初相。
中频信号的初始相位φ
0为调频连续波的相位x
1与调频连续波的反射波x
2的相位之差:
φ
0=2πf
cτ
公式13
公式14
则目标物体的距离:
公式15
通过上面的推导可以看出,通过检测中频信号的相位可以得到目标物体与雷达的相对距离。
为了测量物体的速度,如图8所示,雷达按照间隔时间T
c发射两个调频连续波,并分别接收这两个调频连续波的反射波,从而得到两个中频信号。由于目标物体在时间T
c内移动了ΔR=vT
c的距离,其中,v为目标物体的移动速度,所以根据公式14得到两个中频信号的相位差Δφ为:
公式16
其中,λ为调频连续波的波长。所以目标物体的速度v为:
公式17
雷达的测角原理同样为测距原理的扩展,如图9所示,雷达可以具有第一接收天线91和第二接收天线92,两个接收天线之间的距离为l。调频连续波的反射波到达两个接收天线的距离是不同的,由于两个接收天线之间的距离l远远小于目标物体至雷达间的距离,所以两个接收天线所接收的反射波的方向可近似为平行,并且可以得到两个中频信号。根据测距原理即得两个中频信号的相位不同,通过两者相位的差值即可推算出发射角度。
公式18
在本申请的实施例中,可以使用同一个雷达在不同频段发射两个调频连续波,相应地分别接收两个调频连续波的反射波,采用前文所述的方法分别获得两个调频连续波对应的中频信号,从而获得目标物体的距离信息、速度信息和角度信息中的至少一个。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例中所提到的频段可以替换为频带。两个频段相同意味两个频段的带宽、最低频率、最高频率均相同。
本申请实施例提供了一种雷达信号处理方法,应用于第一装置中,其中,第一装置可以为前文所述的雷达,或者为其他具有控制功能的装置,该装置可以独立或者集成于雷达。如图10中所示,该雷达信号处理方法包括:
S101、在第一频段发射第一雷达信号。
可选的,所述第一雷达信号为第一调频连续波。
一种可选的设计中,所述第一雷达信号的初始频率为所述第一频段的最低频率。该设计中,所述第一雷达信号的发射功率随时间变化而增加。
又一种可选的设计中,所述第一雷达信号的初始频率为所述第一频段的最高频率。该设计中,所述第一雷达信号的发射功率随时间变化而降低。
可选的,所述发射第一雷达信号为在第一时间单元内发射所述第一雷达信号。进一步可选的,所述发射第一雷达信号的初始时刻为所述第一时间单元的起始时刻。
S102、在第二频段发射第二雷达信号。
可选的,所述第二雷达信号为第二调频连续波。
一种可选的设计中,所述第二雷达信号的初始频率为所述第二频段的最低频率。该设计中,所述第二雷达信号的发射功率随时间变化而增加。
又一种可选的设计中,所述第二雷达信号的初始频率为所述第二频段的最高频率。该设计中,所述第二雷达信号的发射功率随时间变化而降低。
可选的,所述发射第二雷达信号为在第一时间单元内发射所述第二雷达信号。进一步可选的,所述发射第二雷达信号的初始时刻为所述第一时间单元的起始时刻。
一种可选的设计中,第一频段和第二频段在频域上可以不完全重叠。如图11所示。这里的不完全重叠是指所述第一频段和第二频段不相同,且其中的任一个频段不包含于另一个频段中。具体的,还可以如图12所示,第一频段和第二频段在频域上完全不重叠。
在一种可能的实施方式中,如图11和图12所示,第一雷达信号和第二雷达信号在第一时间单元T
c1内发射,第一雷达信号和第二雷达信号的持续时间可以相同,且第一时间单元T
c1的长度等于上述持续时间。例如,所述第一时间单元为所述第一雷达信号和所述第二雷达信号的扫频时间。这里需要说明的是,所述第一时间单元还可以理解为一个“扫频周期”,即所述第一雷达信号和所述第二雷达信号同时完成一次扫频的时间单元。进一步,所述第一时间单元可以理解为每一次扫频周期。
又一种可能的实施方式中,如图13所示,第一雷达信号和第二雷达信号的持续时 间可以不同,例如第一雷达信号在第二时间单元T
c2内发射,第二时间单元T
c2的长度等于第一雷达信号的持续时间;第二雷达信号在第三时间单元T
c3内发射,第三时间单元T
c3的长度等于第二雷达信号的持续时间,其中,T
c2≠T
c3。进一步,所述第一时间单元T
c1的长度大于或者等于所述第二时间单元T
c2的长度,且大于或者等于第三时间单元T
c3的长度。
需要说明的是,持续时间也可以称为扫频时间等,本申请实施例对具体名称不作限定。以线性调频连续波为例,在每个发射周期,信号发射从初始频率开始,经过一定时长线性增加至该发射周期内的最大频率(或者线性减少到该发射周期内的最小频率)。其中,该时长可以称作所述线性调频连续波的持续时间或扫频时间。可选的,对于周期发射的调频连续波来说,持续时间或扫频时间可以为一个发射周期或者半个发射周期,例如,对于锯齿波来说,持续时间或扫频时间可以为一个周期的时间长度或者符号个数;对于三角波来说,持续时间或扫频时间可以为一个周期的时间长度的一半或者符号个数的一半,即半个周期。
以下可能的实施方式中引入了特征“单位时间”,所述单位时间可以为所述第一时间单元,或者,可以为所述第一时间单元内任一段作为一个计算单位的时间段,例如一个符号、多个符号、一个间隙(slot),或者一个子帧等。本申请实施例中不对单位时间进行具体限定,以清楚描述雷达信号或调频连续波的频率和时间之间的变化关系为准。
在一种可能的实施方式中,第一雷达信号的频率的斜率的符号与第二雷达信号的频率的斜率的符号相同。这里的斜率可以描述为单位时间内线性调频连续波的频率的变化量。或者说,所述第一雷达信号和所述第二雷达信号的频率在单位时间单元内随时间增加而增加,或者,所述第一雷达信号和所述第二雷达信号的频率在单位时间单元内随时间增加而减少。示例性的,如图11-图13所示,在单位时间内,第一雷达信号的频率和第二雷达信号的频率随时间线性增加,频率变化量为正值。或者,如图14所示,在单位时间内,第一雷达信号的频率和第二雷达信号的频率随时间线性减小,频率变化量为负值。
在一种可能的实施方式中,所述第一雷达信号的频率的斜率与所述第二雷达信号的频率的斜率的绝对值相同。或者说,在单位时间内,第一雷达信号的频率变化量的绝对值与第二雷达信号的频率的频率变化量的绝对值相同。
进一步,以所述第一时间单元的开始时刻为初始时刻,发射所述第一雷达信号和所述第二雷达信号,并且,所述第一雷达信号和所述第二雷达信号的频率以单位时间内相同的频率变化量变化。可以理解为,所述第一雷达信号和所述第二雷达信号分别在所述第一和第二频段中发射,但是在所述第一时间单元内的波形相同。进一步,所述第一雷达信号和所述第二雷达信号的持续时间相同(均为所述第一时间单元的长度),则所述第一雷达信号和所述第二雷达信号可以以所述第一时间单元的长度为周期,分别在各自的频段上周期的发射。
在该可能的实施方式中,可选的,第一雷达信号的频率的斜率与第二雷达信号的频率的斜率相同。或者说,第一雷达信号与第二雷达信号在单位时间内的频率变化量相同。示例性的,第一雷达信号的频率的斜率和第二雷达信号的频率的斜率均为1。
在该可能的实施方式中,又一可选的,第一雷达信号的频率的斜率的符号与第二雷达信号的频率的斜率的符号相反。或者说,第一雷达信号与第二雷达信号在单位时间内的频率变化量互为相反数。示例性的,如图15所示,第一雷达信号的频率随时间线性增加,第二雷达信号的频率随时间线性减小,此时第一雷达信号的频率的斜率的符号为正,第二雷达信号的频率的斜率的符号为负。或者,如图16所示,第一雷达信号的频率随时间线性减小,第二雷达信号的频率随时间线性增加,此时第一雷达信号的频率的斜率的符号为负,第二雷达信号的频率的斜率的符号为正。或者,如图17所示,在前一时间单元里,第一雷达信号的频率随时间线性增加,第二雷达信号的频率随时间线性减小;在后一时间单元里,第一雷达信号的频率随时间线性减小,第二雷达信号的频率随时间线性增加。或者,如图18所示,在前一时间单元里,第一雷达信号的频率随时间线性减小,第二雷达信号的频率随时间线性增加;在后一时间单元里,第一雷达信号的频率随时间线性增加,第二雷达信号的频率随时间线性减小。
当第一雷达信号的频率的斜率的符号与第二雷达信号的频率的斜率的符号相反时,可以在一个时间单元里将三角波的上升沿和下降沿发送出去,而不需要如图4所示,在一个时间单元里先发送上升沿,再在下一个时间单元里发送下降沿,即将发送三角波的上升沿和下降沿的时间减少一半。相应地,接收上升沿的反射波和下降沿的反射波的时间也将减少一半,得到上升沿对应的中频信号并得到下降沿对应的中频信号的总时间也将减少一半。因此,在采用公式9测量目标物体的距离信息时,或者采用公式10测量目标物体的速度信息时,耗时也将减少一半。另外,还使雷达测量距离信息和速度信息的分辨率保持不变。
进一步的,在一种可能的实施方式中,第一雷达信号的频率的斜率与第二雷达信号的频率的斜率互为相反数。示例性的,第一雷达信号的频率的斜率为1,第二雷达信号的频率的斜率为-1。
S103、接收第一反射信号和第二反射信号。
其中,第一反射信号为第一雷达信号或第一调频连续波被目标物体反射后的电磁波,第二反射信号为第二雷达信号或第二调频连续波被目标物体反射后的电磁波。
S104、获得目标物体的距离信息、速度信息和角度信息中的至少一个。
在一种可能的实施方式中,根据第一雷达信号和第一反射信号,获得距离信息、速度信息和角度信息中的至少一个。示例性的,根据第一雷达信号和第一反射信号得到第一中频信号;根据第一中频信号,获得距离信息、速度信息和角度信息中的至少一个。
或者,在另一种可能的实施方式中,根据第二雷达信号和第二反射信号,获得距离信息、速度信息和角度信息中的至少一个。示例性的,根据第二雷达信号和第二反射信号得到第二中频信号;根据第二中频信号,获得距离信息、速度信息和角度信息中的至少一个。
或者,在又一种可能的实施方式中,根据第一雷达信号、第一反射信号、第二雷达信号和第二反射信号,获得距离信息、速度信息和角度信息中的至少一个。示例性的,根据第一雷达信号和第一反射信号得到第一中频信号;根据第二雷达信号和第二反射信号得到第二中频信号;根据第一中频信号和第二中频信号,获得距离信息、速 度信息和角度信息中的至少一个。
关于如何根据中频信号获得距离信息、速度信息和角度信息中的至少一个,可以参照前文描述,在此不再重复。
本申请实施例提供的雷达信号处理方法,在不同频段发射两个雷达信号,相应地分别接收两个雷达信号的反射信号,进而获得目标物体的距离信息、速度信息和角度信息中的至少一个。由于可以利用不连续的频域资源来发射雷达信号,扩大了雷达的扫频带宽,因此,提高了雷达的距离分辨率。
