Title
Data selection and de-noising based on reliability for long-range and high-pixel resolution LiDAR
Abstract
Although the Smart Accumulation Technique (SAT) [1] is an optimal averaging algorithm for realizing a long-range and high-pixel-resolution LiDAR system, its maximum effect is guaranteed by de-noising which is quite challenging due to the “range-value-clustering” problem peculiar to SAT. We propose a new algorithm that performs de-noising based on “reliability” provided by accumulating luminous intensities within a cluster. The simulation and measurement results show that the algorithm eliminates the clustering influence, and improves the maximum measurable range by about 2x on 99% of de-noised results, compared with the conventional approach. The overhead of the hardware implementation is small, 1% or less, in regard to Si area and power consumption.
