Direction and doppler shift in ranging systems and methods
Abstract:
Techniques are disclosed for systems and methods to provide accurate and reliable target information when there is relative motion between a remote sensing system and the target. A remote sensing system includes a multichannel ranging sensor assembly and a controller. The ranging sensor assembly includes multiple sensor channels configured to emit modulated sensor beams towards a target and to detect corresponding reflected beams reflected from the target, where the modulated sensor beams are selected to be correlated to each other and mutually incoherent with respect to each other. The controller is configured to receive reflected beam sensor signals corresponding to the detected reflected beams, to determine Doppler components associated with the reflected beams based, at least in part, on the first and second reflected beam sensor signals, and to generate target information based, at least in part, on the determined Doppler components.
