Measurement and Control System of Polarization Modulation Laser Ranging Based on LabVIEW

By changing the modulation frequency consecutively and detecting the echo signal synchronously,the polarization modulation laser ranging system can realize absolute distance measurement with high precision.The measurement principle of high-precision polarization modulation laser ranging system is analyzed,as well as performance requirements of frequency sweeping control and synchronous data acquisition.Frequency sweeping control and synchronous signal acquisition of the polarization modulation laser ranging system was designed based on LabVIEW.The system hardware consisted of radio-frequency signal generator,data acquisition card and the echo signal detector.The system software was composed of frequency sweeping control and synchronous data acquisition module and interface display module programmed with LabVIEW.Experiments were completed in the range of 20 m and 40 m.The experimental results show that the synchronization between the frequency sweeping control and the data acquisition is realized and the stable ranging results are obtained.
