Application: Frequency-modulated coherent lidar (Patent ID: US20240004043A1)
The patent filed by Thales SA describes a method for processing a signal from a coherent lidar system that includes a periodically frequency-modulated coherent source. The method involves decomposing each modulation period into intervals, determining power spectral density of the beat signal, calculating lower and upper frequency bounds, and deriving distance and velocity of the fluid based on these bounds. The system also includes a coherent lidar system with specific components like an emission device, reception device, photodetector, and processing unit to implement the method effectively.
Furthermore, the patent includes specific claims related to the method, such as determining distances and velocities for different intervals, averaging multiple distances and velocities, and utilizing fast Fourier transform for power spectral density calculations. The system also incorporates components like an isolator, amplifier, and unbalanced interferometer for accurate measurements. Additionally, the patent covers the implementation of the method through a computer program product, enabling efficient signal processing for coherent lidar systems.
