  • Publication number: 20250138166
    Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems for a dynamic threshold based echo signal detection for LiDARs are provided. In one aspect, a detection method includes: determining at least one feature parameter that represents a working condition of a LiDAR; determining an echo signal collected by the LiDAR, the echo signal including at least a noise signal; selecting a processing mode for the echo signal based on the at least one feature parameter, detecting the noise signal in the processing mode, and determining a detection threshold based on the noise signal; and comparing the echo signal with the detection threshold, and outputting a target signal reflected from a target object in the echo signal.
