Technical Field

The invention relates to the technical field of laser radars, in particular to a false color laser radar system.

Background

The laser radar is used as an active photoelectric device for acquiring space direction information of a target and an observer, has the advantages of narrow beam, good directivity, high spatial resolution, interference resistance, full-time work and the like, and is widely applied to the fields of topographic mapping, agriculture, forestry, three-dimensional modeling, unmanned driving and the like at present. The ranging type laser radar transmits a single-wavelength laser pulse to a target, measures flight time information of the pulse between the radar and the target to obtain a target distance, provides scanning angle information according to a field of view of a radar light emitting and receiving system, calculates three-dimensional space point cloud data distribution of the target in a spherical coordinate system, and is used for analyzing target object characteristics by combining a gray value provided by echo signal intensity. However, the traditional ranging type laser radar has the close correlation between the target feature extraction capability and the density of the three-dimensional space point cloud data, and brings too much point cloud data to a large object, so that redundancy is removed by a post-processing algorithm, and an incomplete detection problem exists for a sheltered object or a small object, so that the target cannot be effectively identified.

In order to improve the detection and identification capability of the laser radar on the target, an effective solution is to fuse the spatial point cloud data and the target color or spectrum information, and improve the classification judgment capability of the target category by using the target color information or spectrum information. The patent with the application number of CN201310214136.8 discloses an integrated three-dimensional color laser radar data point cloud generating method and a device thereof, but a monocular color camera of the method belongs to passive photoelectric equipment, depends on the sunlight in the daytime, and has the problem that the method cannot work all day long. Patent with application number CN201911165990.3 discloses an unmanned aerial vehicle transmission line geological disaster early warning system with laser radar and hyperspectral imager combination application, but its hyperspectral imager belongs to passive imaging device, has the problem of unable full-time work equally. The high-energy supercontinuum laser is selected as a coherent illumination light source, wide-spectrum long-distance illumination with spectrum covering from visible light to near-infrared wave band can be provided, the single-wavelength laser pulse of the traditional laser radar is replaced by the high-energy supercontinuum laser, and the target azimuth information and the spectrum information can be actively acquired simultaneously by combining a spectrum detection device. The patent with the application number of CN201810034753.2 discloses a hyperspectral lidar system with high spectral resolution and distance resolution, adopts optical fiber dispersion to separate the frequency of a supercontinuum laser pulse spectrum in time, utilizes a spectrum measuring unit to respectively acquire target visible light and near-infrared waveband spectrum characteristic data, but the continuous light splitting process of the hyperspectral lidar system leads to low energy in a single spectrum channel, and the radar spectrum detection working distance cannot be guaranteed. Patent application No. CN201811598297.0 discloses a hyperspectral three-dimensional structure radar system based on near-infrared full-waveform ranging, spectral data are obtained by splitting a supercontinuum laser pulse into a plurality of visible light to near-infrared spectrum channels, but the problem that energy in a single spectrum channel is low is also existed. The patent with the application number of CN202010570326.3 discloses an airborne supercontinuum laser hyperspectral lidar system, the width of a single spectrum channel is only 10nm, the problems of low energy in the single spectrum channel and limitation of radar spectrum detection working distance exist, and the problem of strong interference of visible light wave band solar radiation exists. The patent with the application number of CN201811598297.0 discloses a hyperspectral three-dimensional laser radar system based on near-infrared full-waveform ranging, the ranging and spectrum detection contents of the patent are separated, the utilization mode of spectrum information is different from that of the hyperspectral three-dimensional laser radar system, the related calculation method is complex, and the identification effect is poor.

It can be seen that because the working distance of the laser radar is closely related to the energy of the supercontinuum laser pulse, the existing invention combining the spectrum detection technology and the ranging type laser radar technology still has obvious technical defects, although the high resolution (the spectral bandwidth is 10nm) of the spectrum channel can provide a fine spectrum, the energy of the light pulse in a single channel is too low, so that the working distance of the radar is greatly reduced, and the practical application is difficult.

Detailed Description

For a better understanding of the present invention, reference is made to the following description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples.

Example 1:

the invention aims to provide a false color laser radar system, which adopts high-energy supercontinuum laser with spectral energy positioned in a near infrared band as a lighting source, and divides an echo light signal into four ultra wide band (the channel width is 100 plus 200nm) light channels through a color separation prism combination.

The technical scheme adopted by the invention is shown in figure 1. The system specifically comprises a control system, a wide-spectrum light transceiver, a color separation prism combination and a data acquisition system;

furthermore, the wide-spectrum light transceiver comprises a wide-spectrum light emitting and receiving system, a beam collimator and a high-energy supercontinuum laser; the broad spectrum light emitting and receiving system includes: a wide-spectrum light emitting system and a wide-spectrum light receiving system which are arranged in a quasi-coaxial manner; the broad spectrum light emission system includes: a beam expander and two plane mirrors;

further, the data acquisition system comprises: a four-channel data acquisition card and a channel unit;

further, the channel unit includes: the photoelectric detector comprises a first photoelectric detector, a first electric signal amplifier, a first analog-to-digital converter, a second photoelectric detector, a second electric signal amplifier, a second analog-to-digital converter, a third photoelectric detector, a third electric signal amplifier, a third analog-to-digital converter, a fourth photoelectric detector, a fourth electric signal amplifier and a fourth analog-to-digital converter;

further, the control system includes: a control computer, a time interval measuring unit, a data processing unit, a data storage unit and a scanning mechanism.

The control computer is composed of a field programmable gate array or a digital signal processor and is used for generating a trigger signal to start the high-energy supercontinuum laser to work.

The high-energy supercontinuum laser is directly generated by an optical fiber amplifier, and the spectral energy output of the high-energy supercontinuum laser is continuously distributed on the optical frequency and is concentrated on the near infrared 1-2 mu m or 2-2.5 mu m. When the spectrum is in the range of 1-2 mu m, the optical fiber amplifier is a trivalent ytterbium-doped ion-doped quartz optical fiber amplifier with a double-cladding structure. When the spectral range is 2-2.5 μm, the optical fiber amplifier is a trivalent thulium ion doped quartz optical fiber amplifier with a double-cladding structure.

Further, the pulse width of the high-energy supercontinuum laser is more than 1ns and less than 20ns, the repetition frequency is more than 10kHz, and the pulse energy is more than 10 muJ.

Further, the output beam of the high-energy supercontinuum laser is a fundamental mode, and the beam quality M2 factor is smaller than 1.3.

The high-energy supercontinuum laser outputs pulse laser, the pulse laser is collimated and output through the beam collimator, and the pulse laser illuminates a long-distance target through the wide-spectrum light emitting and receiving system.

The wide-spectrum transmitting and receiving system adopts a telescope structure design, can efficiently collect echo light signals reflected by the surface of a target, and transmits the echo light signals to the dichroic prism combination.

The color separation prism combination adopts the structural design of a plurality of isosceles right-angle triple prism combinations, and the dual-color light splitting film, the long-wave-pass filter film, the short-wave-pass filter film and the like are plated on the prism interface or the light emitting surface to realize the division of spectral channels.

Furthermore, the color separation prism combination filters the echo super-continuum spectrum signal into four spectrum component signals with spectrum separation, and the width of a single spectrum channel is not less than 100 nm.

Further, the spectral component signals are subjected to photoelectric conversion by a photoelectric detector, signal enhancement by an electric signal amplifier, analog-to-digital conversion by an analog-to-digital converter, and light intensity values of four channels are obtained by a four-channel data acquisition card.

The time interval measuring unit is used for comparing the time delay quantity of the trigger signal and the echo light signal provided by the control computer to obtain the flight time of the supercontinuum laser pulse.

The scanning mechanism is composed of a high-speed two-dimensional scanning galvanometer or a swing mirror, can realize rapid surface scanning or line scanning of a target area, and provides azimuth angle information of radar beams to the data processing unit.

The data processing unit obtains four-channel radar data of a target in a near-infrared band by processing original information such as time delay, four-channel light intensity information, azimuth angle information provided by the scanning structure and the like, and then sends the four-channel radar data to the data storage unit for storage. Therefore, the four spectrum channels of the distance detection realized by the invention can provide distance measurement information, and the distance measurement precision can be improved through simple average processing.

Further, after the four-channel light intensity information is obtained, a method for synthesizing double-color, three-color and four-color false colors can be realized by randomly selecting two channels, three channels or all four channels in the four-channel light, and false color point cloud data with vivid colors and outstanding features can be obtained.

The invention directly utilizes the near-infrared supercontinuum laser and filters the supercontinuum signals into four spectrum component signals (the spectrum channels are only 4) separated by the spectrum through the color separation prism combination, and the width of a single spectrum channel is not less than 100nm (the channel range is extremely large, and the spectrum is not a hyperspectral spectrum). The spectrum detection wave band, the channel number and the spectrum width are different, so the obtained information is completely different. Particularly, the light pulse energy in a single channel is higher, so that the spectrum detection distance of the radar is remarkably increased, and the method is closer to practical application.

Example 2:

as shown in FIG. 2, the pseudo-color lidar system of the present invention has a control computer comprising a programmable gate array to generate a clock signal, and controls a high-energy supercontinuum laser comprising an ytterbium-doped fiber amplifier to emit fundamental mode supercontinuum laser pulses with repetition frequency of 100kHz, pulse width of 10ns, pulse energy of 200 μ J, spectral range of 1000-2000nm, and beam waist radius of 5 μm. The emitted laser pulse is changed into parallel light after passing through a beam collimator formed by a parabolic reflector with the focal length of 25mm, and the parallel light is injected into an emitting reflector of a wide-spectrum light emitting and receiving system, so that the target object within the distance of 200m can be effectively illuminated. The backward echo signals loaded with the target spectrum are collected by a telescope receiving system of a wide-spectrum light emitting and receiving system, then injected into a color separation prism combination formed by pasting six right-angle triple prisms, filtered out four channels with spectrum separation and bandwidth not less than 200nm, and converged on photosensitive surfaces of four indium gallium arsenic photoelectric detectors through focusing lenses respectively to complete the conversion from optical signals to electric signals. The electric signal passes through the electric signalAfter the signal is amplified by the amplifier, the amplified signal is transmitted to the analog-to-digital converter to be converted into a quantized digital signal, and then the quantized digital signal is recorded by a four-channel data acquisition card to obtain the intensity information { I) of four channels₁、I₂、I₃、I₄}. The time interval measuring unit is used for comparing the time delay quantity of the trigger signal and the echo light signal provided by the control computer, and the flight time t of the supercontinuum laser pulse can be obtained after calibration. Therefore, the target distance information L — c × t/2 can be calculated in combination with the light speed value.

In the embodiment, the scanning mechanism is composed of a high-speed two-dimensional scanning galvanometer and can record an included angle theta between a single laser radar beam and the x-axis direction and an included angle phi between the single laser radar beam and the z-axis direction. Therefore, the radar is used as the origin 0 of the three-dimensional space coordinate, and the space coordinate of the target point cloud is { L multiplied by sin phi multiplied by cos theta, L multiplied by sin phi multiplied by sin theta, L multiplied by cos phi }.

The processing unit in this embodiment calculates the processing time delay amount, the four-channel light intensity information, and the azimuth angle information provided by the scanning structure to obtain the single-point radar data { L × sin Φ × cos θ, L × sin Φ × sin θ, L × cos Φ, I |)₁、I₂、I₃、I₄And sending the data to a data storage unit for storage.

And then, the control computer controls the scanning mechanism to move to the next detection position, controls the high-energy supercontinuum laser to emit the next laser pulse and records the single-point radar data of the radar to other spatial positions. And finally, a large number of single-point radar data are collected to form four-channel radar point cloud data. The colorful false color radar point cloud picture can be obtained by selecting two colors, three colors or four colors in the four-channel radar point cloud data and combining a false color synthesis method, and high-precision resolution and target category identification can be supported.
