Title:
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DETECTING OBJECT USING OPTICAL PULSES WITH NON-UNIFORM POWER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2021/244462
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
There is provided a method and apparatus for detecting an object, especially an object remotely placed in a field of view (FOV) using optical pulses with non-uniform pulse power, without exceeding the Accessible Emitted Limit (AEL). A plurality of optical pulses including two or more levels of pulse power may be emitted to detect an object in the FOV. Information related to the object may be generated from the returning optical pulses. The optical pulses with non-uniform pulse power may result in increased probability of detection associated with the pulses returning from the remotely located object, and therefore the density of point clouds associated with the remotely located object may be increased.
