Due to the fact that the vibration and pure rotational Raman signals collected by the temperature and humidity profile lidar were 3-4 orders of magnitude weaker than the Mie scattering signal, they were susceptible to electronic and white noise interference, which seriously affected the system signal-to-noise ratio. In this paper, an improved VMD-WT filtering method was adopted to extract effective signals and denoise. The processing outcome of several filtering algorithms was evaluated, and noisy signals were simulated to confirm the algorithm's efficacy. Based on the quantitative computation of evaluation indicators, such as signal-to-noise ratio, root mean square error, and correlation, the improved VMD-WT algorithm had more significant advantages in indicators such as signal-to-noise ratio. In order to further verify the robustness and adaptability of the proposed algorithm, experimental analysis of the filtering algorithm was conducted on the continuously collected temperature and humidity measured signals. The results demonstrated that the algorithm not only improved the detection range of lidar and suppressed high-altitude noise effectively, but also performed well in processing strong interference signals, like clouds, which led to a significant improvement in the atmospheric optical parameter inversion results. Furthermore, pseudo-color images of aerosols, temperature, and humidity changes over time and space have been used to further illustrate the algorithm's dependability and wide range of potential uses.
由于温度和湿度廓线激光雷达采集到的振动和纯转动拉曼信号比米氏散射信号弱3-4个数量级,它们易受电子噪声和白噪声干扰,这严重影响了系统的信噪比。本文采用一种改进的变分模态分解-小波变换(VMD-WT)滤波方法来提取有效信号并进行去噪。评估了几种滤波算法的处理结果,并对噪声信号进行了模拟以验证算法的有效性。基于信噪比、均方根误差和相关性等评估指标的定量计算,改进的VMD-WT算法在信噪比等指标上具有更显著的优势。为了进一步验证所提算法的鲁棒性和适应性,对连续采集的温度和湿度测量信号进行了滤波算法的实验分析。结果表明,该算法不仅提高了激光雷达的探测范围,有效抑制了高空噪声,而且在处理云层等强干扰信号方面表现良好,从而使大气光学参数反演结果有了显著改善。此外,还利用气溶胶、温度和湿度随时间和空间变化的伪彩色图像进一步说明了该算法的可靠性和广泛的潜在用途。
