MEMS-based LiDAR has showcased extensive application potential in the autonomous driving sector, attributed to its cost-effectiveness, compactness, and seamless integration capabilities. However, MEMS LiDAR suffers from a short detection range, due to the small receiving aperture of the MEMS mirror. Our early study attempted to increase the detection range of MEMS LiDAR with a semi-coaxial design. In this paper, we further investigate the synchronization method for large-aperture electromagnetic MEMS mirrors, in which a synchronous motion transfer model of electromagnetic MEMS mirrors is constructed. The results of the simulations and experiments demonstrate that two electromagnetic MEMS mirrors are synchronous with an aperture of 60 π mm2, FoV of 60°, and scanning frequency of 220 Hz. The entire synchronization process of the electromagnetic MEMS mirrors is completed within 10 s, which verifies the feasibility of synchronizing large-aperture electromagnetic MEMS mirrors to increase the detection range of MEMS LiDAR.
基于微机电系统(MEMS)的激光雷达因其成本效益、紧凑性和无缝集成能力,在自动驾驶领域展现出了广泛的应用潜力。然而,由于MEMS反射镜的接收孔径较小,MEMS激光雷达的探测范围较短。我们早期的研究尝试通过半同轴设计来增加MEMS激光雷达的探测范围。在本文中,我们进一步研究了大孔径电磁MEMS反射镜的同步方法,构建了电磁MEMS反射镜的同步运动传递模型。仿真和实验结果表明,两个电磁MEMS反射镜在孔径为60π平方毫米、视场为60°、扫描频率为220赫兹的情况下实现了同步。电磁MEMS反射镜的整个同步过程在10秒内完成,这验证了同步大孔径电磁MEMS反射镜以增加MEMS激光雷达探测范围的可行性。
