Patent EP-3579016-A1 (EP)
Inventor: POLICHT ALEXANDER E
IPC: G01S7/4861
Filed: 2019-06-03
Abstract: Disclosed is a technique 600, such as a method, that can be used to provide delay values that can be used to determine a distance between a target and an optical transceiver. At 605, discrete-time samples are established, such as obtained using a LIDAR "front end" circuit. The discrete-time samples can include a digitized time-series corresponding to a received optical signal. At 610, the time-domain waveform is compared to a reference waveform (e.g., using a cross-correlation), such as to determine a first delay value corresponding to a sample index (e.g, an integer sample index value) where the time-domain waveform and the reference waveform are aligned. At 615, the time-domain waveform is shifted using the first delay value. At 620, a remaining phase offset of the time-domain waveform is extracted, such as using a frequency-domain approach, and a second delay value (e.g., a sample delays-action value) is determined, such as in terms of a fraction of a sample interval. At 625, the technique 600 can optionally include one or more of automatically adjusting a gain or an aggregation parameter (e.g., a "processing" gain) to provide an automatic gain control scheme. For example, a count of receive waveforms to be summed together can be adjusted to provide gain control either alone or in combination with gain adjustment of one or more receive signal chain gain values. At 630, the technique 600 can optionally include performing an offset compensation or bias removal, such as by applying a correction (e.g., a specified offset) to a received signal. For example, the technique 600 can include automatically applying a correction to provide DC balance in the received signal, at 630. Accordingly, the present inventor has developed a technique to provide an estimate of delay at sub-sample resolution (e.g., in terms of a fraction of a sample).
