  • 针对侧向激光雷达应用于气溶胶探测领域时,雷达回波信号易受噪声影响这一问题,本文提出了一种基于神经网络的激光雷达信号去噪算法。该算法在卷积神经网络基础上融合残差学习法和批量标准化,引入了注意力机制,改进激活函数,提升了网络性能和学习效率。采用本文提出的方法对噪声进行预测,实现了信号和噪声的有效分离,提高了侧向激光雷达CCD图像的信噪比。实验结果表明,使用本文提出的去噪算法对侧向激光雷达CCD图像进行去噪,图像的峰值信噪比提高了约5 dB,信号相对误差减小至9.62%,本文提出的去噪算法优于小波变换、维纳滤波等去噪方法,验证了该方法的可行性和实用性。

  • Overview: A side-scatter lidar is known to have evident advantages over other types of lidar in atmosphere detection, especially for lower atmosphere. For a side-scatter lidar, a high-power laser is normally used as the light source. As the charge coupled device (CCD) optoelectronic detector is used to capture the light backscattered by the atmosphere. Correspondingly, the original side-scatter lidar signal is depicted as a 2D CCD image. The 2D CCD image of the side-scatter lidar may suffer from the noise as all other lidars. Therefore, denoising the side-scatter lidar signal may need more efforts than ordinary lidar signals. The extinction coefficient profile can be derived from the CCD image. With the help of other auxiliary techniques, atmosphere features such as wind speed and meteorological optical range can be obtained.

    In the paper a denoising algorithm based on denoising convolution neutral network (DnCNN) is proposed for side-scatter lidar signal, called DnCNN+. The DnCNN+ uses scaled exponential linear units (SELU) as the activation function of the network in order to avoid the gradient explosion and gradient disappearance that might happen frequently in the traditional network. On the other hand, convolutional block attention module (CBAM) is used in the DnCNN+ to ensure the efficient allocation of the computation resources in the training process, hence increasing the learning efficiency. Furthermore, we introduce residual learning and batch standardization in the network to improve the network output performance.

    For the denoising strategy, we identify the noise and separate the noise from the simulated lidar signal. The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is hence increased. The denoising performances of five methods, including wavelet transform soft threshold, wavelet transform hard threshold, Visual Geometry Group (VGG16), DnCNN, and DnCNN+, are evaluated for the signals with SNR of 0.01-0.03 dB. VGG16 is one of the classic convolution neutral networks. Peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) and structural similarity (SSIM) are used to evaluate the denoising performance. Simulation results showe that the PSNR is increased by over 5 dB using the DnCNN+. The DnCNN+ has the best denoising performance in terms of PSNR and SSIM. Additionally, it is also seen that the DnCNN+ has smaller network loss than the methods using convolution neutral networks, VGG16, and DnCNN. Furthermore, the 1D signal photon number is retrieved from the CCD image. It is shown that the DnCNN+ has the smallest relative error of signal of 9.62%. The proposed denoising algorithm based on the convolution neutral network is shown to be efficient for improving the side-scatter lidar signal.
