  • the present invention relates to the field of laser detection technology, and in particular to a detection method and detection system of laser radar, and laser radar.
  • Lidar is a commonly used ranging sensor with the characteristics of long detection range, high resolution, and low environmental interference. It is widely used in fields such as intelligent robots, drones, and unmanned driving. In recent years, autonomous driving technology has developed rapidly, and lidar, as the core sensor for distance sensing, has become indispensable.
  • Lidar emits optical signals through lasers, receives the echo signals reflected by the target object through the detector and converts them into electrical signals. It calculates the time of flight (ToF) of the signal based on the optical signal emission time and the echo signal reception time. Combined with The speed of light determines the distance to the target.
  • ToF time of flight
  • any object in nature will absorb and reflect the incident light after being illuminated by light.
  • the intensity of reflected light formed by different object surfaces is also different.
  • the intensity of reflected light is related to the reflectivity of the object surface, which is the ratio of the radiant energy of the reflected light formed on the object surface to the total radiant energy incident on the object surface. If the energy incident on the surface of an object is completely absorbed without any return, the reflectance of the surface of the object is 0%; if the energy incident on the surface of the object is completely reflected without any absorption, the reflectance of the surface of the object is 100 %; the greater the reflectivity, the stronger the reflective ability of the object surface.
  • lidar can also obtain the reflectivity of the target surface.
  • Lidar can characterize the intensity of the echo signal based on the signal characteristics of the electrical signal converted by the echo signal, and obtain the reflectivity based on the intensity of the echo signal and the equivalent emitted light intensity attenuated by distance.
  • the maximum distance that lidar can detect is affected by the reflectivity of the target surface.
  • LiDAR products from different manufacturers usually indicate their ranging capabilities under a certain reflectivity, such as 200m@10%. This parameter means that within 0 to 200m, the energy reflected by an object with a reflectivity greater than 10% is enough to generate an echo. For an object with a reflectivity of less than or equal to 10%, when the distance is greater than 200m, the reflected energy is reflected in the atmosphere. Due to attenuation during transmission and other reasons, the echo energy is low, and the probability of lidar detecting the echo is very small. Therefore, the longest detection distance corresponding to lidar is 200m.

Description

激光雷达的检测方法及其检测系统、激光雷达
本申请要求2022年4月29日提交中国专利局、申请号为202210467154.6、发明名称为“激光雷达的检测方法及其检测系统、激光雷达”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本发明涉及激光探测技术领域,特别涉及一种激光雷达的检测方法及其检测系统、激光雷达。
背景技术
激光雷达是一种常用的测距传感器,具有探测距离远、分辨率高、受环境干扰小等特点,广泛应用于智能机器人、无人机、无人驾驶等领域。近年来,自动驾驶技术发展迅速,激光雷达作为其距离感知的核心传感器,已不可或缺。
激光雷达通过激光器发射光信号,通过探测器接收目标物反射的回波信号并转化为电信号,基于光信号发射时间与回波信号接收时间计算信号的飞行时间(Time of Flight,ToF),结合光速获知目标物的距离。
自然界中任何物体经受光的照射之后,都会对入射光具有吸收和反射的现象。在入射光相同的情况下,不同物体表面所形成反射光的强度也不相同。反射光强度与物体表面的反射率相关,即物体表面所形成反射光的辐射能与入射至物体表面的总辐射能的比率。如果入射至物体表面的能量被完全吸收,没有任何返回,则该物体表面的反射率为0%;如果入射至物体表面的能量被完全反射,没有任何吸收,则该物体表面的反射率为100%;反射率越大,表示物体表面的反射能力越强。
激光雷达除了能够进行距离测量,还能够获得目标物表面的反射 率。激光雷达能够基于回波信号所转化的电信号的信号特征表征回波信号的强度,根据回波信号的强度和按距离衰减后的等效发射光强度得到反射率。
激光雷达所能探测的最远距离受到目标物表面反射率的影响。不同厂商的激光雷达产品通常会标明在某反射率下的测距能力,如200m@10%。这个参数是指在0~200m内,反射率大于10%的物体反射回来的能量足以产生一次回波,而对于反射率小于等于10%的物体,当距离大于200m时,由于反射的能量在大气传输中衰减等原因,造成回波能量较低,激光雷达探测到回波的概率非常小,所以激光雷达对应的最远探测距离为200m。
为保证激光雷达应用到无人驾驶等领域的安全性,需要对激光雷达的探测能力进行评估,以判断激光雷达能否有效地发挥功能。反射率性能参数是反映激光雷达探测能力的重要指标,但目前不存在统一的反射率性能参数测量方法,以对激光雷达的探测能力进行评估。

需要说明的是,在一些实施例中,在由一个激光器和一个探测器组成的探测通道中,每个探测通道负责一个垂直角度方向的探测。参考图5,示出了40个通道/线束,垂直视场(FOV,field of view)为-16°~7°,由所有激光器的垂直探测角度共同构成。其中,最上面的激光器的垂直方向角为7°,也即负责7°方位的距离探测,最下面的激光器的垂直方向角为-16°,也即负责-16°方位的距离探测。也即处于同一探测通道的发射单元发出的光信号在遇到障碍物被反射且回到激光雷达后,可被该探测通道的探测单元收到。所有的探测通道的子视场共同构成整个激光雷达的垂直视场的扫描区间。通过获取激光雷达的内部参数,可以得到各个激光器的垂直方向角。如确定待测通道为最上面的激光器对应的探测通道,可以将所述激光雷达沿垂直方向下调整7°,以使所述激光雷达最上面的激光器光束可以沿水平方向入射至所述目标板。对于多线激光雷达,可以通过不断调节所述激光雷达与所述目标板的相对位姿,使所述激光雷达各通道发出的激光束依次按预设角度入射至所述目标板。
具体的,通过所述转台111,调整所述激光雷达101的俯仰角以及所述激光雷达101的方向,使所述待测通道发出的激光束沿水平方向入射至竖直放置的所述目标板102。确定所述待测通道、调整所述激光雷达101的相对位姿之后,启动激光雷达101进行扫描。

本发明一些实施例中,所述反射接收操作包括:使所述待测通道至少1次扫过所述目标板102;所述待测通道每次扫过所述目标板102获得至少1个反射点的反射率测量值。
在本发明一些实施例中,所述反射接收操作中,所述有效反射点的数量大于等于200。所述激光雷达101的单帧有效点数量可以为几个、几十个或上百个;所以,所述反射接收操作中,可以使所述待测通道至少多次扫过所述目标板102,从而获得大于等于200个的有效反射点的反射率测量值。具体的,通过所述读取单元120,即所述点云可视化设备读取并记录所述多个有效反射点的反射率测量值。
进行所述反射接收操作之后,执行步骤S120,根据所述反射接收操作的结果,获得所述待测通道的反射率参数。
本发明一些实施例中,所述目标板102具有预设的反射率标准值,所以获得所述待测通道的反射率参数的步骤包括:根据所述反射率标准值和所述多个反射率测量值,获得所述待测通道的反射率准度;根据所述多个反射率测量值,获得所述待测通道的反射率精度。
反射率准度可以反映激光雷达101得到的反射率测量值和反射率标准值之间的差距,反射率准度越高表示所述激光雷达101反射率的测量结果与真实数据符合程度越高。
具体的,获得所述待测通道的反射率准度的步骤包括:根据所述多个反射率测量值的平均值,获得平均测量值;根据所述平均测量值和所述反射率标准值之间的差值,获得所述待测通道的反射率准度:
Figure PCTCN2022120779-appb-000001
其中,μ表示所述激光雷达101的反射率准度;
Figure PCTCN2022120779-appb-000002

具体的,获得所述待测通道的反射率准度的步骤还可以包括:根据所述多个反射率测量值的平均值,获得平均测量值;根据所述平均测量值和所述反射率标准值的比值,获得所述待测通道的反射率准度。
反射率精度可以反映对同一距离下的目标板102进行所述反射接收操作所获得的多个反射率测量值之间的一致程度。反射率精度越高表示所述激光雷达101反射率测量的随机误差越小。
具体的,获得所述待测通道的反射率精度的步骤包括:根据所述多个反射率测量值的标准差,获得所述待测通道的反射率精度:
Figure PCTCN2022120779-appb-000003
其中,
Figure PCTCN2022120779-appb-000004
表示所述平均测量值;Ri表示第i个反射率测量值,N表示反射率测量值的数量。
需要说明的是,本发明一些实施例中,所述激光雷达101为多线激光雷达,即所述激光雷达101包括:多个探测通道。因此获得一个所述待测通道的反射率参数之后,需要再次确定待测通道,从所述多个探测通道中选择另一个通道作为所述待测通道,重复执行步骤S110,进行所述反射接收操作和执行步骤S120,获得再次确定的所述待测通道的反射率参数,直至获得所有探测通道各自的反射率参数。
具体的,调整激光雷达101的相对位姿,依次使每次所确定的待测通道沿水平方向入射至所述目标板102,每次获得多个有效反射点的反射率测量值,进而计算每个探测通道的反射率参数。基于每个探测通道的反射率参数,可以计算各个探测通道反射率参数的标准差,获得所述激光雷达的反射率精度,用以评估激光雷达各个探测通道的反射率测量一致性;基于每个探测通道的反射率准度,可以计算各个探测通道反射率准度的平均值,获得所述激光雷达的反射率准度,用以评估激光雷达整机的反射率测量准度。
继续参考图1和图2,本发明一些实施例中,所述反射接收操作还包括:执行步骤S130,调整所述目标板102和所述激光雷达101之间的测量距离d;进行反射接收操作的步骤中,在所述测量距离d下,进行反射接收操作以获得所述测量距离d下的多个反射率测量值; 获得所述待测通道的反射率参数的步骤中,获得所述测量距离d下,所述待测通道的反射率参数。
具体的,本发明一些实施例中,确定所述待测通道之前,调整所述目标板102和所述激光雷达101之间的测量距离d。
所以,在预设探测距离下,对所有探测通道进行反射接收操作以获得预设探测距离下所有待测通道的反射率参数之后,利用所述测量元件,调整所述测量距离d,再次获得调整后的测量距离d下,每个探测通道的反射率参数。每次调整所述测量距离d,均获得调整后的测量距离d下的每个探测通道的反射率参数。
需要说明的是,所述有效反射点的选择与所述测量距离d相关。所述激光雷达101与所述目标板102之间的测量距离d越近,所述目标板102相对于所述激光雷达101测距中心的圆周角越大,因此所述目标板102边缘位置的反射强度较小。为了保证检测的一致性,当所述目标板102和所述激光雷达101之间的检测距离小于预设值时,所选择的有效反射点位于所述目标板102的中心区域。
所以,本发明一些实施例,所述反射接收操作还包括:调整所述目标板102和所述激光雷达101之间的测量距离d之前,判断所述目标板102是位于近场测量范围还是位于远场测量范围;所述目标板102位于近场测量范围时,任一所述有效反射点与所述目标板102边缘之间的距离大于10cm。
具体的,判断所述目标板102是位于近场测量范围还是位于远场测量范围的步骤中,根据所述测量距离d或所述目标板102相对所述激光雷达101测距中心的圆心角,判断所述目标板102是位于近场测量范围还是位于远场测量范围。

具体的,本发明一些实施例中,确定所述目标板102和所述激光雷达101之间的测量距离d之前,调整所述目标板102的反射率标准值。
所述目标板102具有预设的反射率标准值,因此本发明一些实施例中,调整所述目标板102的反射率标准值的步骤包括:更换目标板102,不同的目标板102具有不同的反射率标准值。具体的,更换目标板102后,在不同测量距离d下,对所述激光雷达101对每个探测通道重复执行步骤S110和步骤S120。
继续参考图2,本发明一些实施例中,获得所述待测通道的反射率参数的步骤之后,执行步骤S150,获得所述激光雷达101的反射率参数,所述激光雷达101的反射率参数包括:至少一个测量距离d下,针对至少一个反射率标准值的目标板102,所述激光雷达101每个探测通道的反射率参数。
具体的,将各个测量距离d下,针对所有反射率标准值的目标板102,所述激光雷达101所有待测通道的反射率参数汇总。
具体的,针对一个测量距离d和一个反射率标准值的目标板102,基于每个探测通道的反射率参数,可以计算各个探测通道反射率参数的标准差,获得所述激光雷达的反射率精度,用以评估激光雷达各个探测通道的反射率测量一致性;基于每个探测通道的反射率准度,可以计算各个探测通道反射率准度的平均值,获得所述激光雷达的反射率准度,用以评估激光雷达整机的反射率测量准度。

具体的,所述控制单元110多次调整激光雷达101的相对位姿,依次使每次所确定的待测通道沿水平方向入射至所述目标板102,每次获取多个有效反射点的反射率测量值,进而所述评估模块130计算每个探测通道的反射率参数,即所述控制单元110再次调整所述激光雷达101的俯仰角,每次调整所述激光雷达101的俯仰角以使作为待测通道的一个探测通道沿水平方向入射至所述目标板102,读取单元120每次记录多个有效反射点的反射率测量值。
继续参考图1,本发明一些实施例中,所述控制单元110还依据测量元件,调整所述目标板102和所述激光雷达101之间的测量距离d;在所述测量距离d下,反射接收操作模块进行反射接收操作以获得所述测量距离d下的多个反射率测量值;评估模块130获得所述测量距离d下,所述待测通道的反射率参数。
具体的,本发明一些实施例中,确定所述待测通道之前,所述控制单元110调整所述目标板102和所述激光雷达101之间的测量距离d。
所以,在预设探测距离下,所述反射接收操作模块对所有探测通道进行反射接收操作,所述评估模块130获得预设探测距离下所有待测通道的反射率参数之后,利用所述测量元件,所述反射接收操作模块调整所述测量距离d,所述评估模块130再次获得调整后的测量距离d下,每个探测通道的反射率参数。所述反射接收操作模块每次调整所述测量距离d,所述评估模块130均获得调整后的测量距离d下的每个探测通道的反射率参数。
需要说明的是,所述有效反射点的选择与所述测量距离d相关。所述激光雷达101与所述目标板102之间的测量距离d越近,所述目标板102相对于所述激光雷达101测距中心的圆周角越大,因此所述目标板102边缘位置的反射强度较小。为了保证检测的一致性,当所述目标板102和所述激光雷达101之间的检测距离小于预设值时,所选择的有效反射点位于所述目标板102的中心区域。
本发明一些实施例,所述反射接收操作模块还包括:区域判断单元(图中未示出),所述区域判断单元适宜于判断所述目标板102是位于近场测量范围还是位于远场测量范围;所述区域判断单元判断所述目标板102位于近场测量范围时,任一所述有效反射点与所述目标板102边缘之间的距离大于10cm。
具体的,所述区域判断单元根据所述测量距离d或所述目标板102相对所述激光雷达101测距中心的圆心角,判断所述目标板102是位于近场测量范围还是位于远场测量范围。
本发明一些实施例中,所述目标板102可拆卸的固定于所述机械单元,而且所述目标板102的数量为多个,不同目标板102的反射率标准值并不相同。因此更换不同的目标板102,所述检测系统能够获得针对不同反射率标准值,所述激光雷达101的反射率参数。
需要说明的是,本发明一些实施例中,所述评估模块130还包括:整合单元(图中未示出),所述整合单元适宜于获得所述激光雷达101的反射率参数,所述激光雷达101的反射率参数包括:至少一个测量距离d下,针对至少一个反射率标准值的目标板102,所述激光雷达101至少一个探测通道的反射率参数。
具体的,所述整合单元还适宜于:针对一个测量距离d和一个反射率标准值的目标板102,基于每个探测通道的反射率参数,获得所述激光雷达的反射率精度;基于每个探测通道的反射率准度,获得所述激光雷达的反射率准度。
此外,本发明还提供一种激光雷达。
所述激光雷达的反射率准度范围为-40%~40%,其中,所述激光雷达的反射率准度通过本发明的检测方法获得。
所述激光雷达的反射率准度通过本发明的检测方法获得,因此所述激光雷达的具体技术方案参考前述检测方法的实施例,本发明在此不再赘述。
另外,本发明还提供一种激光雷达。
所述激光雷达的反射率精度范围为0~40%,其中,所述激光雷达的反射率精度通过本发明的检测方法获得。
所述激光雷达的反射率精度通过本发明的检测方法获得,因此所述激光雷达的具体技术方案参考前述检测方法的实施例,本发明在此不再赘述。
综上,在预设环境条件下,使用预设反射率的目标板,在激光雷达与目标板相距预设距离的条件下,统计激光雷达垂直或水平方位角内物体探测的反射率准度和精度,从而获得激光雷达各个通道测量反射率的一致性以及与目标实际反射率的偏差,适用于任何类型的激光雷达,如机械式激光雷达、固态激光雷达等,从而可以对市售激光雷达的反射率性能进行直观比较和有效测评,以提高对激光雷达反射率性能评估的准确性。
虽然本发明披露如上,但本发明并非限定于此。任何本领域技术人员,在不脱离本发明的精神和范围内,均可作各种更动与修改,因此本发明的保护范围应当以权利要求所限定的范围为准。
