    Area of Science:

    • Optics and Photonics
    • Signal Processing
    • Remote Sensing

    Background:

    • Frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) lidar achieves 4D imaging (3D space + velocity) using dual frequency sweep laser signals.
    • Accurate target echo identification and matching are crucial for FMCW lidar, but challenging in complex environments with multiple targets and broadened spectra.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a robust algorithm for multitarget echo pairing in FMCW lidar.
    • To improve the accuracy of 4D imaging in complex environments.

    Main Methods:

    • A novel waveform-matching algorithm based on a skeleton tree was applied for multitarget echo pairing.
    • The algorithm quantifies target echoes hierarchically to create a skeleton tree based on waveform peak amplitudes.
    • Signal similarity is determined by comparing the distance between feature trees of two signals.

    Main Results:

    • The skeleton tree algorithm demonstrated high accuracy in matching multitarget echoes, exceeding 90%.
    • Performance showed a significant improvement of approximately 50% compared to methods without the algorithm, especially for targets with substantial overlapping echoes.
    • Imaging experiments validated the algorithm's effectiveness for diverse targets.

    Conclusions:

    • The skeleton tree-based waveform-matching algorithm effectively addresses the challenge of multitarget echo pairing in FMCW lidar.
    • This advancement significantly enhances the accuracy and reliability of 4D imaging in complex scenarios.
